Services
Manual and Manipulative Therapy
Our therapists use hands-on techniques to assess and treat musculoskeletal conditions. Specialized training in manual therapy enables accurate diagnosis and faster recovery for issues like joint pain, spinal dysfunction, and sports injuries. This approach combines mobilization, manipulation, and targeted exercises to restore mobility and reduce pain. Patients benefit from individualized sessions focused on correcting biomechanical imbalances and improving functional movement patterns.
Concussion Management
Specialized concussion rehabilitation programs address symptoms like dizziness, headaches, and cognitive impairment. Using evidence-based protocols, we conduct comprehensive assessments and develop personalized recovery plans incorporating vestibular therapy, cognitive exercises, and gradual return-to-activity strategies. Our certified therapists monitor progress closely to ensure safe recovery for athletes and individuals with head injuries.
Acupuncture and Dry Needling
Certified physiotherapists provide acupuncture and intramuscular stimulation (IMS) to treat chronic pain, muscle tension, and nerve-related conditions. Thin needles stimulate natural healing processes, reduce inflammation, and improve nerve conduction. This modality effectively addresses back pain, migraines, sports injuries, and myofascial pain syndromes through targeted treatment of trigger points and nerve root areas.
Running Assessment
Biomechanical evaluations identify movement inefficiencies contributing to running injuries. Using treadmill analysis and clinical expertise, we assess gait patterns, footwear needs, and muscle imbalances. Customized training recommendations and corrective exercises help runners improve performance, prevent injuries, and address conditions like plantar fasciitis and IT band syndrome through evidence-based interventions.
Pelvic Health Physiotherapy
Specialized treatment addresses urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and postpartum recovery. Therapists conduct thorough assessments to identify muscular or connective tissue dysfunction, then implement targeted exercises, manual therapy, and education to restore pelvic floor function. This service supports women's health needs, including pre- and post-natal care, and helps patients regain confidence through non-invasive, effective interventions.

My physiotherapist Gyarthri has magical hands. They are very attentive to your individual needs and give you the time that your body wants and needs to help you heal.

So grateful I gave this clinic a chance before having surgery. I was not able to look over my left shoulder for 8 years. Also limited mobility with my left arm. I was not able to lift it over my head with out an incredible amount of pain. After working with Ryan for a few months my mobility is back. Using different exercises that he gave me and a rubber band I was able to build the muscles back up in these areas that had atrophied from lack of use. End result was surgery canceled.

Gayathri is a great physiotherapist. She listened to my concerns when I injured my ankle. Gayathri helped to get me back to the gym quickly! This is the third time I have been to South Simcoe Physiotherapy for a variety of reasons and each time the care I received was excellent!

Ive been seeing Natasha since August 2021 to treat my plantar fasciitis. An extremely frustrating injury to have to work through and has taken a long time. With shockwave and manipulative therapy, she has got me to a point where I can walk 5-6km a day. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! Thank you Natasha! Its always so nice coming into the clinic! From the great, efficient service upon arrival to the friendly goodbye after treatment, Im always very impressed! Thank you for continuing to keep everyone healthy and safe!

Fantastic place & staff. Alexandra DiFlorio my physiotherapist worked on my wrist which I had broken 2 months earlier and after a few appointments had 99% of the flexability back in my wrist and fingers. Tammy the office manager also made sure my insurance claims were processed promptly. I would highly recommend South Simcoe Physiotherapy to friends & family. - Mike Hall

I wanted to share the wonderful experience I had with this clinic. From the initial call to the end result it was all incredibly remarkable. The lady who answered was very pleasant and responsive. She could sense that I was in need of help I and managed to book me in with Gayathri Rajamoorthy that same evening. My shoulder was in very bad shape. The muscles were not working well and very painful.
After a few sessions I feel perfect. The treatment worked like magic. Im absolutely amazed. Gayathri is a very talented, knowledgeable physiotherapist who goes over and above to make sure she is doing
