Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy services focus on reducing pain and restoring function through manual therapy, exercise programs, and electrotherapeutic modalities. Our clinicians treat musculoskeletal disorders, sports injuries, and post-surgical conditions using evidence-based techniques. Patients receive individualized care plans that include mobility improvement, strength training, and injury prevention strategies.
Massage Therapy
Registered massage therapists provide customized treatments for pain relief and relaxation using Swedish, deep tissue, and sports massage techniques. Services address muscle tension, injury recovery, and prenatal discomfort while promoting circulation and stress reduction. Treatment plans integrate with other rehabilitation services for comprehensive care.
Kinesiology
Kinesiology services develop personalized exercise programs for injury recovery, athletic performance enhancement, and chronic condition management. Our registered kinesiologists create functional training plans that improve mobility, strength, and workplace ergonomics through biomechanical analysis and progressive rehabilitation protocols.

Specialized concussion management programs combine vestibular rehabilitation, cognitive rest protocols, and gradual return-to-activity plans. Our multidisciplinary approach addresses symptoms like dizziness and headaches while monitoring recovery progress through standardized assessment tools and physician collaboration.

Kevin was fantastic helping me through the, at times emotional, journey of recovering from a severe concussion. Most recently I had to bring my young son in for assessment and treatment and there is no one else I would have trusted. Kevin was kind and thorough. I highly recommend this clinic.

Kate-Lynn my physiotherapist was great. She set goals to resolve my issue and gave me exercises and therapies that enabled me to reach those goals. She was extremely personable and I was pleased as a senior that she was interested in the care of seniors.The facility was excellent with good covid protocols in place. I would highly recommend Total Physiotherapy.

After a car accident in June 2020, I recieved excellent treatment & advice, mainly with Holly & taylor. I feel stronger now than before the accident. I was able to regain, most of my range of functions that were compromised. I am happy that I chose this company, & would recommend them to anyone who needs their services.

Amazing staff! I would highly recommend this physiotherapy place to anyone. Not only did they care for my shoulder after surgery, they showed care for my entire well-being. They knew how to push me but not over push me. Very encouraging and supportive staff!

I would highly recommend Kevin Hickey and his team at Total Phsyiotherapy. Last year Kevin and Taylor Buenting worked with my teenage son after he sustained a concussion. They were instrumental in him making a safe return to school and sports. They were able to relieve and rehabilitate him from his injury and did so with care and concern. Recently I experienced a shoulder injury and have been seeing Kevin for treatment. I am half way through my treatment plan and am already feeling significantly better. All of the staff have been warm and friendly while providing amazing treatment and customer

I came to Jane with lower back issues due to triathlon training. Over a period of 3 months she has been able to not only fix the issue, she guided and educated me on how to build a stronger core to ensure it doesn't happy again. I can't say how pleased I am with Jane and her team at Total. If you're a weekend warrior like me or a more serious athlete, these are the people to work with, they really understand my unique needs and did a fantastic job! Thanks Jane....
