Telerehab is a convenient way to have a physiotherapy session at home or at the office. The session is provided via video chat. The video platform used is encrypted so it is both safe and confidential.
During the video chat you will be evaluated just like you’re used to in person. You will have all of your questions answered and together we will set goals and make a plan to get you back on track. We work together to create the best possible plan of care for your recovery that allows you to get back to all the activities you love!
If it is felt that your condition would be better suited for an in-person assessment with a physiotherapist or other health care professional, I will certainly guide you in that direction.
If you are interested in setting up a telerehab physiotherapy session (or have questions about whether the video consultation is right for you), please fill in the information with the contact us feature. Telerehab physiotherapy is now covered by most extended health providers however it is recommended to check with them ahead of time to confirm.
