Welcome to
Physiotherapy
At ak Physiotherapy we pride ourselves in personalised consultations focused on improving your injuries and pain management. We offer experienced “hands on” treatment with expert advice in exercise therapy and sports management.
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapists provide attentive and thorough care to every client. Our sessions are longer in length with a hands on and self management focus. Unlike many other physiotherapy clinics, each appointment is exclusively dedicated to the individual client with faster, more effective treatment results.
Post-Operative Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation includes exercises and progression of exercise with increased functionality, return to work and sport planning, hands on treatment as needed for reduced swelling, increased range of motion, decreased pain and more.
High Performance Rehab
Following a work place injury and workers compensation recommendations our experienced Physiotherapists with dual degrees in Exercise Science can take you through your program to rehabilitate back to your normal work duties. With a fully equipped gym available as well as Reformer Pilates and Crossover Symmetry, we have everything you need to restore you to your full health.
Recovery Boots for Sport and Swelling
At ak Physiotherapy we want you to feel your best, be able to enjoy your daily activities and perform to your maximum capacity. That is why we have introduced recovery tools to help you for your next performance. You may also use these to reduce swelling or inflammation post injury or post-surgery or even following a long plane flight.
Tenditinits treatment with Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy uses an acoustic wave to penetrate as deep as layers of tendon and bursa to disrupt the tissue and create a new healing effect. It may break up calcification, reduce muscle tension but most importantly create the production of new neo-vessels to innervate the tendon tissue and allow increase blood supply. In addition it will stimulate an inflammatory response. This treatment is highly recommended for tennis elbow, achilles tendonitis, rotator cuff tendinopathy and plantar fasciitis. It may also help with bursitis in the shoulder/hip and chronic back pain.
Dry Needling
At AK Physiotherapy, dry needling is used to treat pain and reduce muscle tightness/spasm in acute and chronic pain or injury. We may also use this type of therapy to assist in the reduction of swelling post injury (surround the dragon), or to help assist in muscle recovery after an intense training session (or several).
Clinical Pilaties
