Kelowna is an active city, and that shows up in physiotherapy clinics: runners, cyclists, skiers, desk workers with back pain, and people recovering from surgery. This site is for Kelowna residents who want physiotherapy that starts with an assessment, sets a clear plan, and teaches them how to move better between visits, not just a treatment that feels good for an hour.

Common questions
Do I need a doctor referral for physiotherapy in BC?
In most cases you can book physiotherapy directly, without a referral. Some insurance plans still ask for one, so check your plan.
How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?
It depends on the problem. An acute strain may need a few visits, while post-surgery rehab or chronic pain usually needs a longer plan. A good clinic should give you a rough plan after the first assessment.
What happens at a first physiotherapy visit?
An interview about your history and goals, a physical assessment, and a treatment plan, usually including exercises you can do at home.
