Mobile Sports Injury Rehab
The confines of a clinic space often may not provide an accurate picture of your movement Our mobile therapists can meet you on the field, at the track, or even in the water to assess your movement patterns or issues. And if you are on crutches after an injury, getting to a clinic can be a hassle—that’s why we come to you.
How We Treat Sports Injuries
We work with athletes of all skill levels who find themselves nursing a sports injury.
Athletes most commonly injure their joints either from overuse or an accidental movement or impact. We frequently treat back injuries, knee pain, hip pain, and shoulder and neck issues.
We have a tried-and-true approach to working with athletes in a variety of sports disciplines, including soccer, hockey, paddling, and running, from recreational to professional. Our process includes:
- Pain and swelling management
- Manual therapy
- Dry needling
- Progressive exercises to improve movement and strength
- Movement pattern corrections
- Activities to improve performance and balance
- Prescribing mobility equipment
- Sport-specific drills
- Education on condition management to help you stay in the game
What To Expect:
- The physiotherapist or kinesiologist will come to your home, care home, hospital, office or any other location that is convenient for you.
- They will ask you questions about your health history and current problem or injury. This should take 10 to 20 minutes.
Physiotherapists are licensed healthcare professionals and are legally required to take real-time notes for medical and legal purposes. The therapist will use a computer or tablet to input information into our secure electronic medical records system during your session. The servers for our electronic records system are located in Canada.
- Please have any doctor’s referral notes, diagnostic imaging reports, or your list of medications handy for appointments.
- The therapist may need about 4 x 8 feet of space to set up the portable bed to provide a thorough assessment.
- The therapist will need to put their hands on you. It is a good idea to wear shorts or a sleeveless top to provide the best range of motion for assessment and treatment.
- The therapist will likely prescribe home exercises and make recommendations to help you feel better. It is important to follow this advice for optimal recovery and progress.
- The assessment session will last 1 to 1.25 hours. Treatment sessions are 50 minutes to 1 hour.
- Please note that the time required to conduct requested or necessary communication to doctors, family members, or third parties will be included in your 1-hour session.
