Burnaby, BC – Physiotherapy as a practice helps people maintain, maximize, and restore their strength, movement, and function throughout their lifespan. Professionals in the field have extensive skills, insight, and knowledge about the human body to assess, diagnose, and treat musculoskeletal and neurological injuries.

At Burnaby Heights Physiotherapy, therapists conduct a detailed history before performing a physical assessment to understand the injury area or a patient’s concerns. They then collaborate to explore functional abilities and individualized treatment plans that work towards optimal health or wellness goals. The team may leverage hand therapy for post-surgical rehabilitation, carpal tunnel syndrome, dislocations/sprains, tendon/nerve lacerations, osteoarthritis, and other hand injuries.

During IMS (Intramuscular Stimulation) therapy, therapists use a dry needling technique to treat underlying neuromusculoskeletal injuries. Alternatively, Burnaby Heights Physiotherapy uses shockwave therapy, which is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-intensity sound waves to break up calcifications, scarring, and adhesions that form in the tendons or vestibular physiotherapy for imbalances, dizziness, or blurry vision.

To reduce pain and enhance healing, clients may receive massage therapy, a hands-on manual technique to encourage physiological responses to the tissues, relieving negative stress. They release endorphins to minimize pain and improve blood flow, muscle relaxation, circulation, pain, or range of motion. The massage therapists are proficient in postural dysfunctions, neuromuscular injuries, and general discomforts from acute/chronic injuries.

According to https://burnabyheightsphysio.ca/services/physiotherapy/, acupuncture is an adjunct to physiotherapy treatment for patients assessed and diagnosed by a trained practitioner. The traditional Chinese medicine technique uses sterile needles inserted into predetermined anatomical points to stimulate the connective tissues, muscles, and nerves, encouraging the production of endorphins. Acupuncture can relieve low back pain, migraines/headaches, arthritis pain, muscle tension, high blood pressure, low energy levels, joint pain, and more.

While physiotherapy treats issues through hands-on treatment and modalities, kinesiology is an exercise-based rehabilitation program to unlock or improve overall function. The Burnaby Heights Physiotherapy team offers specific programs for patients recovering from neck pain, work-related injuries, auto accidents, joint pain, chronic health issues, soft tissue injuries, acute pain, or sports injuries. Their modalities restore flexibility, strength, mobility, and cardiovascular fitness while preventing future incidents. Kinesiology can include stretching, balance/coordination, and strengthening exercises.
