  • What Is Physiotherapy?

    Physical therapy, also known as physiotherapy, is a healthcare field dedicated to assessing, restoring, and preserving physical functioning and mobility.


    Physiotherapists possess extensive university education and training, enabling them to assist patients with acute muscular or joint injuries, postural discomfort, chronic ailments, and more.


    Recognizing that every individual and injury is distinct, each treatment plan encompasses a variety of therapies, which include hands-on treatments and at-home exercises, designed to facilitate the body's innate healing process.

  • Who Needs Physiotherapy?

    Physiotherapy caters to individuals seeking injury prevention related to their profession or athletic activities, post-surgical recovery, acute injury management, or pain relief for chronic conditions.


    As specialists in physical rehabilitation, physiotherapists possess a distinct skill set that enables them to enhance mobility, alleviate muscle and joint discomfort, and avert additional injuries.

  • Treatable Conditions

    • Injury due to sports
    • Workplace accident (WSIB claim)
    • Motor vehicle accident, whiplash
    • Pre and post-pregnancy
    • Balance and fall prevention
    • Headaches
    • A chronic condition causing discomfort, reduced movement, or making exercise difficult, (eg. cancer, stroke, MS, Parkinson’s or osteoporosis)
    • Joint, shoulder, back, and neck pain
    • Need for pre-operative or post-operative rehabilitation
    • Reduced joint mobility and muscle strength
    • The desire for better physical health — improved exercise, better fitness, and improved posture and strength

  • What To Expect

    The process of movement rehabilitation and pain management is intricate and often requires multiple treatment sessions. Since the body is interconnected, it is essential to address all potential factors contributing to the pain or injury to achieve long-lasting improvements.


    Your therapist will become acquainted with you based on your lifestyle, injury, and rehabilitation objectives. They will then develop a customized recovery plan that combines in-clinic manual therapies (such as massage, acupuncture, and electrotherapy) with at-home exercises.


    For your appointments, we suggest wearing loose, comfortable clothing, which allows your physiotherapist better access to the injured area and enables you to move with ease during manual adjustments.


    During your session, feel free to discuss any concerns regarding your injury and learn how to move more comfortably independently. At Tread Well, we are committed to educating our patients on preventative care and maintaining a healthy body.

Our expert team of therapists utilizes a combination of physiotherapy, massage therapy, chiropractic care, and acupuncture to address various health concerns and promote overall well-being.

  • Injury-specific Exercise Programs

     Introducing exercises gradually to strained muscles can enhance your recovery time. Your therapist will develop a tailored exercise plan to boost strength and mobility at the injury site.


  • Manipulation and Mobilization

    Your physiotherapist employs hands-on techniques to guide you in passive movements, which in turn increases your range of motion and induces relaxation in affected areas.

  • Electrotherapy/ Laser Therapy

    Our physiotherapy clinic remains current with the latest research-based movement therapies to offer you the most effective means for a safe and swift recovery.

  • Acupuncture

    This technique involves stimulating sensory nerves beneath the skin and within muscles using tiny needles, which triggers pain-relieving endorphins, relaxes tense areas, and encourages the body's natural healing processes.

  • Vestibular Therapy

    Individuals experiencing balance and dizziness issues can greatly benefit from Vestibular Therapy, a specialized program that incorporates targeted exercises, gaze stabilization techniques, and patient education. This comprehensive approach aims to enhance vestibular function, alleviate vertigo symptoms, and promote better coordination and stability in daily activities. By addressing the root causes of these issues, Vestibular Therapy enables individuals to regain confidence and improve their overall quality of life.

About Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression

At Tread Well, our Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression service offers a safe and effective alternative to traditional invasive procedures for individuals experiencing back pain and other spine-related issues. Our skilled practitioners utilize state-of-the-art technology to gently stretch the spine, relieving pressure on spinal discs and promoting the body's natural healing processes.


This innovative treatment can provide significant relief for various conditions, including neck and back pain, sciatica, bulging or herniated discs, and degenerative disc disease. Experience the benefits of our Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression service and rediscover the freedom of pain-free movement and improved quality of life.

  • What Is Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression?

    Non-surgical spinal decompression is a motorized traction technique that can help alleviate back pain by gently stretching the spine, altering its force and position. This change reduces pressure on the spinal discs, which are gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine, creating negative pressure within the disc. Consequently, bulging or herniated discs may retract, relieving pressure on nerves and other spinal structures. Ultimately, this process encourages the flow of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids into the discs, facilitating their healing.

  • What Can Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Treat?

    Non-surgical spinal decompression is a therapeutic approach that has been employed to address various conditions, including back and neck pain, sciatica (characterized by pain, weakness, or tingling extending down the leg), bulging or herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, worn spinal joints (also known as posterior facet syndrome), and injured or diseased spinal nerve roots. This versatile treatment offers relief for a wide range of spinal issues, promoting overall well-being and improved quality of life.

  • What Can I Expect From My Spinal Decompression Appointment?

    During a spinal decompression appointment, you can expect to remain fully clothed while your chiropractor or physiotherapist fits you with a harness around your pelvis and another around your trunk. You will either lie face down or face up on a computer-controlled table. The practitioner will operate the computer, customizing the treatment to your specific needs. 


    Sessions may last between 30 to 45 minutes, and you may require 20 to 28 treatments over a period of five to seven weeks. Additional treatments, such as electrical stimulation, ultrasound, or heat and cold therapy, may be administered before or after the spinal decompression therapy to further enhance your recovery process.
