Physiotherapy
REGAIN YOUR MOBILITY AND STRENGTH
A physiotherapist is a health professional with a bachelor’s and/or master’s degree from one of the 14 medical schools in Canada. He or she must also be a member of a professional order and be covered by professional liability insurance. A physiotherapist is governed by a professional code of ethics. There are three main fields of practice: orthopaedics (or musculoskeletal), neurology and cardio-respiratory.
