With a diverse background among our physiotherapists, we are able to provide treatment with secondary languages such as Punjabi, Hindi, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Japanese, and French to those patients who are unable to converse fluently in English.

Our physiotherapists share the common goal of returning patients to their optimum functional level following surgery or injury. We provide treatments that are evidence based and customized to each client’s specific needs. We take pride in our comprehensive clinical evaluations, knowledge of current therapeutic procedures, personalized patient care, and open communication with our referring physicians. Our exceptional results have set us apart from other physiotherapy clinics.
