Services
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy at Proactive Physio Plus focuses on restoring mobility, reducing pain, and preventing future injuries through manual therapy, exercise, and evidence-based techniques. Our registered physiotherapists treat sports injuries, chronic pain, post-surgical conditions, and neurological disorders. Clients benefit from personalized treatment plans tailored to their specific needs and goals.
Massage Therapy
Registered massage therapy alleviates discomfort from muscular overuse, chronic pain, and occupational stress through deep tissue, myofascial release, and superficial techniques. Our therapists use anatomical expertise to improve flexibility, circulation, and recovery for conditions like arthritis, migraines, and sports injuries.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics correct gait patterns and reduce stress on feet, knees, hips, and back using personalized insoles. Our Canadian Certified Pedorthists assess lower limb anatomy to create devices that enhance mobility and address biomechanical imbalances for long-term foot health.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
Pelvic floor therapy addresses dysfunction in male and female clients through muscle retraining, education, and manual techniques. We treat prolapse, incontinence, chronic pelvic pain, and pre/postnatal conditions, focusing on restoring tissue integrity and functional independence.
Handwriting Skills Lab
This small-group program for ages 7-10 improves pencil grasp, letter formation, and writing endurance through movement-based activities. Led by occupational therapists and physiotherapists, it builds confidence and foundational skills in a supportive, interactive environment.

We experienced such a positive interaction with the help we received for my wife Pam! We were under Deepha's care, and not only was she extremely knowledgeable and professional, but she was so kind and pleasant to work with as well. She was able to help Pam make the gains that allowed her to resume some activities and be in a much safer position. We would recommend Proactive Physio Plus to anyone without hesitation! Thank you!

My experience with Proactive Physio was very positive and I am very glad I took advantage of this therapy. I was grateful not to have to resort to any alternative procedure. My therapist was always professional but friendly and made me feel comfortable throughout the sessions.

My partner and I had some concerns regarding our 8 year old son's gross and fine motor skills, so we scheduled an assessment with Deepha to see if physio could help. She was very kind and encouraging through the entire process with him, and when it came time to explain the exercises she wanted us to work on, she made sure we were comfortable and confident in doing them with him. Highly recommend.

Incredibly helpful and friendly staff, knowledgeable and genuinely interested in the welfare of the patient. Staff are always professional and they have a very cohesive team with all its respective services. My daughter had Jessica Doig as her physio therapist and I could always trust that my daughter was in good hands and getting excellent treatment and efficient follow up exercises. I have and would recommend this service.
