Pain Neuroscience Education

In recent years, research has explored the notion of teaching people more about pain. This type of education is referred to as pain neuroscience education (PNE). PNE is an educational strategy used by physical therapists that focuses on teaching people in pain more about the biological and physiological processes involved in their pain experience. Current best-evidence provides strong support for PNE to positively influence pain ratings, dysfunctions, fear-avoidance, and pain catastrophization, limitations in movement, pain knowledge, and healthcare utilization.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is an evidence-based treatment that uses a thin, monofilament needle that punctures the skin to treat acute and chronic inflammation, muscle pain and “knots”. This method does not use medication and it creates both local and systemic effects by inducing tissue remodeling and tissue homeostasis by altering the chemical environment. The body will release natural biochemicals and go through a process of self-healing and self-repair.

Dry Needling is effective in the treatment of :

Neck/Back Pain
Headaches/TMJ
Chronic Pain
Hip and Gluteal Pain
Achilles Tendonitis
Plantar Fasciitis
Knee Pain - Knee Osteoarthritis
Muscular Strains/Ligament Sprains
Shoulder Pain
Sciatica
Tennis/Golfers Elbow

Lymphedema Therapy

Lymphedema is an accumulation of protein-rich fluids that build up in the superficial tissues resulting in swollen, enlarged limbs or skin surfaces. Lymphedema primarily affects the arms and legs, although it may be present in other parts of the body.

Symptoms of Lymphedema

Pitting of the skin - when the skin is depressed for a few seconds and the indentation does not immediately recover
Tightness in the affected area
Jewelry not fitting properly
Decreased flexibility in the joints

Our certified therapists can help you manage painful lymphedema symptoms.

Falls & Balance Program

More than 30% of people aged 65 and older who live in the community fall each year. 20-30% of them will suffer moderate to severe injuries that will make it difficult to live independently, making them more likely to move into long-term care. Physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology can help reduce your risk of falling and allow you to safely remain living at home as long as possible.
