A little bit about myself, I broke both bones in my lower left leg and had an emergency surgery back in January. Weeks of wheelchairs and crutches, and I can finally start weight bearing. Physiotherapy appointments were made and cancelled at multiple offices in Prince George due to recent social distancing requirements. I was hooped. I'm not a gym rat or yogi and had no idea where to start. I needed direction, a plan and timeframe so I can go back to work. After some googling I found out Physionorth does TeleRehab..? Sounds weird right? Isn't physiotherapy something you do in person? But insurance
