Physiotherapy Clinic in Saskatoon
Your Physiotherapy Assessment & Treatment at North 49 Therapy
Your initial one hour assessment will include a thorough history-taking and a physical assessment of your area of injury. During your physical assessment, the physiotherapist will carefully analyze any imbalances or deficiencies in your muscles, joints, nerves, and overall movement.
Based on the assessment findings, education will be provided regarding the nature of your injury, prognosis and self management strategies. Manual therapy such as manual stretching, joint mobilization, and/or soft tissue release techniques may also be used in conjunction with the self management strategies to maximize the best outcome.
Follow-up appointments are approximately 30 minutes.
What is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is a profession of health care, where the goal is to assist people to restore, maintain and maximize their strength, function, movement, and overall well-being. The terms “physiotherapy” and “physical therapy” mean the same thing and are used interchangeably, as are the terms “physiotherapist” and “physical therapist”.
The Physiotherapists at North 49 have in-depth knowledge of how the body works and specialized hands-on clinical skills to assess, diagnose, and treat symptoms of illness, injury and disability. Your physiotherapy may include rehabilitation, as well as prevention of injury, and promotion of health and fitness. [Source]
