Neurological Conditions….Can Physiotherapy help?

Physiotherapy is not just for a tweaked low back or acute injury. Did you know that physiotherapists also can have neurological treatment assessment, management and skills under their belt?

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) are two examples of degenerative neurological conditions that physiotherapy plays an important role in managing. Other conditions that physiotherapy can play a key role in recovery are Parkinson’s, traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, stroke, spinal cord injury and many other neurological conditions. We also offer management/education/treatment with pediatric populations such as torticollis and plagiocephaly.

Here are some things that a physiotherapist can help you with:
• A full neurological assessment to see where issues need to be addressed
• Compensation strategies for lost neurological function
• Functional mobility, balance and strength exercises
• Strategies, devices and mobility aids to make your life easier with your activities of daily living (such as dressing, cooking, cleaning)
• Education

Having a neurological condition is a challenging diagnosis. The good thing is that you don’t have to manage it alone!

A physiotherapist who has specialized training in neurological conditions can have an amazing impact on your life and help you in so many ways!

We have several physiotherapists with a wide array of extensive training in the treatment of common neurological conditions. Call us to book your appointment now!

COVID-19 SAFETY

Easthill Physiotherapy + Acupuncture Clinic has protocols to ensure the utmost safety for our patients, team and community. We have worked hard to protect our public health during this pandemic. Medical masks are mandatory for all staff and patients to keep everyone safe, and we appreciate your commitment.

We continue to follow the guidelines and protective measures indicated by our regulatory boards and governments. Our team has also had extensive training on our new protocols, and we are all 100% committed to ensuring our patients’ safety.

This is the new normal.

All patients and staff will be screened before each visit. Unfortunately, anyone showing signs of respiratory infection will be unable to come into the clinic. We will encourage and book virtual physiotherapy appointments for those that need help but are symptomatic if a client is at greater risk or for anyone who is not comfortable coming into the clinic.

We have the highest standards for hand hygiene and cleaning. All equipment and rooms will be disinfected after each use, frequently touched surfaces will be sterilized, and personal protective equipment will be used in all appropriate situations. Patients and staff will have hand washing stations to ensure proper frequent hand hygiene.

We also understand that it is necessary to reduce the risk of transmission with physical distancing. To do this, we have installed plexiglass barriers, reduced the number of appointments available by spreading them out and designed an optimal patient flow that minimizes contact with other patients and staff before and after appointments. Our team is also committed to practicing these as measures of hand hygiene and physical distancing outside the clinic to be safe when they return to work.

Although it may seem different with the steps we need to take, the Easthill Physiotherapy + Acupuncture team is still the same! We still believe in the same values and are here to provide an extraordinary physiotherapy experience. This is not going to change. Our goal is to keep all of us healthy and happy.

Our fabulous admin team is available to book in-clinic appointments now. Or if you prefer a virtual physiotherapy visit, we can book that too. Please call us at 250-545-2922 to book an appointment or if you would like more information.
