Education
Education plays a very important role in physiotherapy. The goal of physiotherapy is to return you to your optimal function and strength, while educating you about your injury.
As physiotherapists, we educate our clients to help them:
- understand their injury
- learn how to independently maintain a healthy body without the constant supervision of a therapist,
- learn to how to prevent re-injury or re-occurrence of symptoms, and
- learn to help prevent future decline from participating in the activities they love.
