We’re so lucky to be living on the west coast, right by the ocean. Let’s take advantage of this! Swimming is a great exercise for people with conditions that make high-impact exercise difficult.

For those with arthritis, injury, disability, asthma and other conditions, swimming helps to reduce your pain and assist with recovery from injury. Breathing exercises associated with the sport help expand lung capacity and gain control over breathing!

Friendly reminder from your local physiotherapist to stay safe during your Spring activities!
Did you know? Over 50% of sports injuries occur due to improper warm-up or lack thereof. Stay safe and healthy by warming up with dynamic stretches to improve blood flow and flexibility! Stay hydrated and take breaks when needed to avoid fatigue.

Think of your body's musculoskeletal system like an orchestra. Physical therapy is like the conductor, retraining and strengthening individual muscles and joints to work together in harmony, restoring optimal function and reducing pain!

Back pain and stiffness may develop from ‘wear and tear’ to the spinal joints and discs. These degenerative changes are typically gradual in onset and may be aggravated by long periods of standing. A thorough physiotherapy assessment of back pain will allow diagnosis and identify the underlying causes of the problem. Our highly experienced physiotherapists can tailor a treatment programme to meet your goals!

Do I need a doctor’s referral to come to physiotherapy at Brickyard Physio?
No! A referral from your doctor isn’t required to receive physical therapy. However, some private insurance companies do require a medical referral, so it’s best to check with your provider prior to your first visit!

Back pain is very common—85% of people will suffer from back pain at some point in their lives. In most cases low back pain can be treated with conservative (nonsurgical) methods.
