WHAT IS PHYSIOTHERAPY?
According to the Canadian Physiotherapy Association, “physiotherapists are primary health care professionals with a significant role in health promotion and treatment of injury and disease. They combine their in-depth knowledge of the body and how it works with specialized hands-on clinical skills to assess, diagnose, and treat symptoms of illness, injury or disability”.
Physiotherapists are educated through a two year masters program, and are licensed by the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario.
