What can our Physiotherapists help with?
There are several different areas that our physiotherapists can help with. We have already highlighted a few of them, but here is a detailed view of the kinds of treatments our physiotherapy team offers:
If you or a loved one has experienced a concussion or head injury, seeking prompt care is crucial. At Human Integrated Performance, our physiotherapists address the physical aftermath, while our psychologists focus on the cognitive and emotional aspects of recovery. Together, they offer a comprehensive approach to concussion management, ensuring you receive tailored, holistic care to navigate the challenges of brain trauma.
Strong pelvic floor muscles are important for recovery after pregnancy. They provide stability, support, and strength to the uterus after birth, which reduces prolapse or hernias that may occur during pregnancy. A physiotherapist can teach you the best techniques for building up these muscles.
Overactive bladder is an issue where the bladder muscle contracts uncontrollably which results in urgency and frequency of urination.
Urinary incontinence is the inability to hold urine in, which often leads to the involuntary loss of small amounts of urine. Pelvic floor physiotherapy can help with urinary incontinence by strengthening muscles that help you control urination and bowel movements.
Prolapse is the descent of a pelvic organ below its normal position in relation to the other pelvic organs. Pelvic floor physiotherapy can help with a prolapse by decreasing pressure on the pelvic organs, improving circulation and reducing inflammation.
Sexual dysfunction refers to a range of disorders that may affect your ability to enjoy sexual activity. Acupuncture and pelvic floor physiotherapy can help. Pelvic floor physiotherapy can be used to increase blood flow in the genital area by doing exercises specifically targeted at this region, which is necessary for normal sexual function. Acupuncture can also help improve blood circulation to your reproductive organs.
Pelvic pain in men and women is when the pelvis becomes painful to touch or movement brings on pain. Pelvic floor physiotherapy helps reduce this pain by correcting muscular imbalances and mobilising the pelvic joints, allowing you to use your body more efficiently which reduces mis-loading of joints over time.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by pressure in the wrist and median nerve, which causes pain, tingling, numbing and stiffness in the hand, wrist, and arm.
A vestibular condition is when something’s not right with your inner ear or the part of your brain that controls balance. This can make you feel dizzy, give you spinning sensations, or make it hard to stay steady. These issues can make everyday things, like walking or turning your head quickly, a real challenge. At Human Integrated Performance in Edmonton, we have trained physiotherapists and chiropractors who can help. They use special exercises and treatments to help get your balance back on track and reduce those dizzy feelings.
Orthopaedic Physical Therapy utilises the basic sciences of anatomy, physiology and biomechanics as background theory in the assessment and management of patients. This involves not only ‘manipulation’, but also manual assessment and treatment techniques, specific therapeutic exercise, electrotherapy, and advice on posture and movement disorders. Orthopaedic Physical Therapy is used to treat musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) and injuries, including arthritis, tendonitis, sprains, and more.
Neck pain can be caused by multiple factors, such as poor posture, over-strenuous movement, injury, worn joints, or even disease. We have several treatment options that can help you recover, by reducing stiffness and strengthening the neck muscles.
Complaints involving hands and wrists are common in our clinic, including carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). We help you design a program that will help you improve your mobility and strength in the wrist, hand, and forearm.
Shin splints are a common injury associated with running or other impact activities. The pain is typically along the inside of the shin or tibia which is amplified with impact. Several different factors can cause shin splints such as improper warm-up or cool down, poor footwear, repetitive stress, flat feet, or even a change in your workouts. There are many ways that shin splints can be successfully treated, including Shockwave, Graston, or Active Release. Restricting impact, stretching, foam rolling, proper footwear, and ice are important during treatment to get you back to your activities as soon as possible.
Including plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia, and Morton’s Neuroma. Recovering from such injuries requires therapeutic exercising. We have a friendly team that helps patients with these exercises and makes it easy to get back to fitness.
Sciatica is a nerve pain caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve. Patients often report pain in the lower back and down the back of their leg. Numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness can also occur. Sciatica can be caused by a herniated disc, bone spurs, or spinal stenosis; a narrowing of the spine that can lead to compression of the nerve. Sciatica typically will affect one side of the body. Sneezing, coughing, and straining are often extremely painful with sciatica. Our chiropractors are fully equipped to assess and address irritations of the sciatica nerve.
Patients often report pain or weakness on either the inside or outside of the elbow which is worsened with computer work, lifting or gripping and repetitive activities. There are many ways that tennis and golfer’s elbow can be successfully treated, including Shockwave, Graston, or Active Release. It is important to ice the elbow to help reduce inflammation during the healing process.
Golfer’s Elbow, also known as medial epicondylitis, is caused by repetitive stress and or weakness of the muscles which flex your wrist and fingers. Pain or tenderness is local to the inside of the elbow, and can also move down the forearm and into the hand.
Tennis Elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis, is most commonly caused by repetitive stress and or weakness of the extensor carpi radialis brevis muscle. Pain or tenderness is local to the outside of the elbow but can move down the forearm and into the hand.

Physiotherapy FAQ
The pelvic floor muscles support the bladder, bowel and uterus. When these muscles are weak or lose force they may not be able to provide adequate support for your pelvic organs. This can lead to incontinence or organ prolapse. The pelvic floor serves many important functions in the body.

A variety of things can put pressure on pelvic floor muscles, including chronic health conditions, obesity, age, pregnancy, and childbirth. Lifting heavy objects, coughing, and sneezing can also put pressure on pelvic floor muscles.
We recommend wearing comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely. You may also need to wear shorts or a skirt depending on the type of assessment our physiotherapist will be conducting. Rest assured that all Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy sessions are conducted in a professional and respectful manner, so please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have.
A physiotherapist can help individuals with scoliosis manage their symptoms and improve their overall quality of life by providing exercises and stretches that are tailored to their specific needs. These exercises can help to improve spinal alignment and flexibility, as well as reduce pain and inflammation. If the scoliosis is mild, a physiotherapist may be able to correct it with exercises and stretches alone.
In addition to exercises, a physiotherapist may use manual therapy techniques such as mobilization and manipulation to help reduce pain, muscle tension and inflammation, and improve overall function. Manual therapy can help to align the spine, reduce muscle tension and pain, and improve overall function.
A physiotherapist can also educate the individual about proper posture, body mechanics, and ergonomics, which can help to minimize the strain on the spine and prevent the worsening of scoliosis. This can help to improve the health of the spine and strengthen surrounding muscles. Physiotherapy can improve flexibility and reduce tightness, stiffness, and back pain.
Shockwave therapy, also known as extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT), is a non-invasive treatment that has been used in various fields of medicine, including orthopedics, urology, and cardiology. For plantar fasciitis, a condition characterized by inflammation of the band of tissue (the plantar fascia) that extends from the heel to the toes, shockwave therapy can offer significant benefits.
The therapy uses sound waves to stimulate healing within the affected area. The procedure involves delivering sound waves, or “shocks”, to the plantar fascia to induce a process known as neovascularization, which involves the formation of new blood vessels. This can enhance blood flow and bring more nutrients to the affected area, which can facilitate the healing process.
Here are the key effects and potential benefits of shockwave therapy for plantar fasciitis:
- Pain Reduction: The shockwaves can help to overstimulate the nerves that send pain signals, thereby reducing pain sensation.
- Inflammation Reduction: By promoting improved blood circulation, the therapy can help reduce inflammation, which is a key component of plantar fasciitis.
- Healing: The shockwaves can stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, including the formation of new blood vessels and the release of growth factors. This can aid in the repair of damaged plantar fascia tissues.
- Non-invasive and Safe: ESWT is a non-invasive procedure with minimal side effects, making it a suitable treatment option for many patients.
While many studies have shown positive outcomes with shockwave therapy for plantar fasciitis, it’s important to note that the therapy may not work for everyone. The effectiveness can depend on several factors, including the severity and duration of the condition, the specific protocol used (such as the intensity and frequency of the shockwaves), and the individual’s overall health status. Always consult with a healthcare provider to determine the best treatment approach for plantar fasciitis or any other medical condition.
Pelvic floor physical therapy is often considered to be highly beneficial for individuals experiencing pelvic floor disorders. These disorders can include issues such as incontinence, pelvic pain, prolapse, and difficulties with sexual function, among others. At Human Integrated Performance, we believe that Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy is an important part of overall health and performance. Our physiotherapists can help you improve your pelvic floor strength and stability, preventing injury and restoring mobility. We take a collaborative approach to ensure that each patient receives the best possible care tailored specifically to their individual needs.
How long does a pelvic session last? Assessment is 60 min and treatment is 30 mins
There are two main types of pelvic floor physiotherapy sessions, the initial assessment, and the treatment sessions. The initial assessment is typically one hour, while the treatment sessions are 30 minutes. The number of pelvic floor physiotherapy sessions you will need depends on the severity of your condition. Your pelvic floor physiotherapist will work with you to create a treatment plan that meets your specific needs.
