Services
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services address musculoskeletal injuries, chronic pain, and post-surgical rehabilitation through personalized treatment plans. Using manual therapy, exercise prescription, and advanced modalities like spinal decompression, we restore mobility and prevent future injuries. Patients benefit from one-on-one evaluations and evidence-based care tailored to their specific conditions, lifestyle, and recovery goals.
Sports Medicine
Specialized sports medicine treatments focus on injury rehabilitation, performance optimization, and injury prevention for athletes. Our team employs techniques such as athletic taping, movement screening, and sport-specific exercises to accelerate recovery from knee, shoulder, and back injuries while enhancing overall athletic performance and reducing re-injury risks.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy delivers targeted, high-energy sound waves to accelerate healing for chronic tendon injuries, plantar fasciitis, and other musculoskeletal conditions. This non-invasive treatment stimulates blood flow and tissue repair, offering rapid pain relief and improved mobility without surgery or medication.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are precision-crafted shoe inserts designed to correct biomechanical imbalances, alleviate foot and lower limb pain, and improve gait efficiency. Our pedorthists conduct detailed assessments to create personalized solutions for individuals with flat feet, plantar fasciitis, or sports-related foot injuries.
Massage Therapy
Registered massage therapists provide deep tissue, Swedish, and prenatal massage to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and reduce stress. Treatments target conditions like frozen shoulder, migraines, and repetitive strain injuries, complementing physiotherapy for enhanced recovery and relaxation.

Report
I few weeks ago I hurt my back after getting up from bed. A crunching/grinding noise was felt. Not sure if I woke up abruptly or performed a movement my body did not like. I toughened the pain and took Advils as recommended by friends. Sadly, the pain went on. I effectively could no longer bend forward nor sit for long periods of time. Sideways and bending backwards are less impacted. As this pain was negatively impacting my social life and ability work outside my bed (thankful to work from home) I needed to find a solution. I spoke to a very trusted confidant, who has experienced pain issues and

I've been waiting to find this physiotherapy center for years! Recurring injuries that I've been trying to get dealt with for long periods of time are thoroughly getting treated, unlike many treatments I've had elsewhere. The technology used to loosen my tensions are non-painful, and effective. I have been given ways to continue to take care of these muscle stresses at home. Efficient, personable, and punctual - I am never disappointment by the team!

I went to the Ottawa Carleton Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic due to a problem with my foot. They were able to help correct the problem almost immediately. After going to see them for a few weeks my foot is healed. Great and friendly service.

Report
I highly recommend OCP. I sustained a rotator cuff injury several years ago and have endured continued shoulder pain despite receiving various treatments. After being treated by Toni and his team, my shoulder has healed properly and I am finally pain free. The staff is excellent; very knowledgeable and professional. I would give 10 stars if I could!

Tony and the staff are kind, friendly, empathetic and highly knowledgeable. When I walked in my first day i was on a cane and could barely move due to a knee injury. I walked out without my cane! I really appreciate the holistic approach to healing that this team takes. It doesnt hurt they have free parking- I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a physiotherapist !
