Physiotherapy Treatment Options

Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS)

Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) is a dry needling therapy used to treat chronic pain, muscle tightness, and dysfunction. It involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific trigger points or tight muscle bands, promoting pain relief, muscle relaxation, and improved function.

Exercise Based Rehab

Exercise-based rehab is supported by research and is essential to physiotherapy treatment. We work with patients 1-on-1 to teach exercise plans, which leads to better outcomes. With our physiotherapist-kinesiologist combined treatment model, patients get to spend more time in the clinic at the same price as other providers.

Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy

Your pelvic floor muscles support your internal organs. When these muscles weaken, you may experience issues with your pelvic organs (bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs). Working with a physiotherapist can help you strengthen your pelvic floor and improve the overall health of your pelvic organs.

Modalities (electrotherapy, heat, ice, kinesiology tape, TENS, IFC, and ultrasound)

Modalities are treatment methods that help patients in several ways and use different procedures. Modalities can relieve pain, improve circulation, decrease swelling, reduce muscle spasms as well as improve the body’s overall ability to heal.

Manual Therapy (Mobilizations)

Manual therapy is utilizing skilled application of passive movement to a joint either within (mobilization) or beyond its range of motion (manipulation). Manual therapy is used to treat soft tissue and joints to reduce pain, decrease swelling, increase range of motion, help the body in muscle or soft tissue repair, facilitate movement, and more.

Sports Physiotherapy

Sports physiotherapy deals with preventing injury and rehabilitating patients and athletes who participate in sports activities. There are various injuries or illnesses that you can treat with sports therapy treatments.

Orthopaedic Physical Therapy

Orthopaedic physical therapy involves the care of your entire musculoskeletal system where it helps patients whose muscles, bones, and body ligaments do not function properly. A physiotherapist can treat conditions that may affect your ability to move or function physically in your daily life.

Radial Shockwave Therapy

Radial shockwave therapy is an advanced, non-invasive, highly effective treatment method developed to treat localized musculoskeletal pain. Shockwave therapy enhances blood circulation and accelerates the healing process causing damaged tissue to gradually regenerate.

Wally Ovalle
Consulted the humans at YEGHIP regarding some ongoing neck and head pain, tension, and clicking with certain motions. Booking was easy, staff at the door were pleasant, and the physiotherapist I saw (Jen) really knew her stuff.
Timothy Weber
I highly recommend Nicolas Allen and Michelle Hollik and the entire human integrated performance office. I love their team approach to health and wellness. Having a sports psychologist, physio, chiro, and massage therapist all under one roof is exactly what a 38 year old athlete that isn't ready to give up the dream needs!

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.

IMS can be used to treat headaches and migraines, especially if they are caused by tension and tightness in the neck, shoulders, and upper back muscles. By targeting these areas with acupuncture needles, IMS can help release tension and promote circulation, which may alleviate headache symptoms.

In some cases, headaches and migraines may also be caused by trigger points or knots in the muscles of the neck and shoulders. IMS can be used to release these trigger points, which may provide relief from headache symptoms.

It is important to note that IMS may not be effective for all types of headaches and migraines. Your healthcare practitioner can help determine if IMS is a suitable treatment option for your specific condition, and may recommend other treatments or therapies in addition to IMS. It is also important to consult with a healthcare practitioner if you experience frequent or severe headaches, as they may be a symptom of an underlying 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.

The duration for physiotherapy to show results for sciatica can vary depending on several factors, including the severity of the condition, the specific cause of sciatica, the individual’s overall health, and their adherence to the physiotherapy regimen. Generally, some individuals may start to notice improvement within a few weeks of consistent physiotherapy, while others may require a longer period, possibly several months, for significant relief. It’s important to maintain open communication with your physiotherapist and follow their guidance for the best results. Seeing a physiotherapist will also help to reduce the severity and duration of future episodes. Remember, each person’s response to treatment can differ.

No! Mostly, therapists get recognized by the government and other facilities as primary healthcare workers. Therefore, you do not need a referral to seek physical therapy services. However, you may need a doctor’s referral if you would like to benefit from some medical plans.

Shoulder impingement is a chronic compression injury to the soft-tissue structures of the shoulder joint. When you move your arm overhead, the space between your humerus (arm bone) and the acromion (pointy end) of your shoulder blade shrinks, and the tendons running through that area from your rotator cuff can get irritated. Normally, this temporary compression does not lead to any injury, but consistently repeating overhead motions can lead to irritation and pain. If left untreated, the constant compression of the structures in the shoulder joint can lead to more debilitating effects and chronic shoulder pain.

An ankle sprain is a common injury that can occur when you fall or twist your ankle. Symptoms of an ankle sprain include pain, swelling, and stiffness. A sprained ankle occurs when the ligaments are forced beyond their normal range of motion and therefore are not able to properly stabilize the ankle.

On the first day of pelvic floor physical therapy, the therapist will likely ask about your symptoms and medical history. They will also perform a physical examination to assess your pelvic floor muscles. Based on their findings, they will create a treatment plan specifically for you. This may include exercises and stretches to do at home, as well as pelvic floor muscle training exercises that you can do in the clinic.

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.

Physiotherapy plays an important role in managing pelvic pain. Physiotherapists can help manage pain through techniques such as manual therapy, exercise, and electrical stimulation. They can also improve strength, flexibility, and stability in the pelvic region and manage pelvic floor muscle dysfunction that may contribute to pain. A physiotherapist can educate patients on proper posture, body mechanics, and activities to avoid, as well as ways to manage pain during daily activities, to improve their physical function and quality of life.
