Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services focus on restoring mobility and reducing pain through evidence-based treatments. We address musculoskeletal injuries, post-surgical recovery, and chronic conditions using manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and patient education. Our one-on-one sessions ensure personalized care plans that adapt to each patient's progress and specific needs.
Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation
Specialized treatment for pelvic floor dysfunction including incontinence, pelvic pain, and postpartum recovery. Our certified therapists use internal and external assessments to create individualized programs combining manual therapy, targeted exercises, and lifestyle modifications to improve pelvic muscle function and overall quality of life.
Acupuncture
Integrated acupuncture treatments combine traditional Chinese medicine with Western approaches to pain management. Fine needles stimulate natural healing processes, effectively addressing chronic pain, headaches, and musculoskeletal conditions while complementing other physiotherapy interventions for enhanced recovery outcomes.
Dry Needling
This targeted treatment addresses myofascial pain by inserting fine needles into trigger points to release muscle tension. Effective for acute and chronic pain conditions, it restores normal muscle function and reduces discomfort with minimal side effects through our physiotherapists' specialized training.
GLAD Canada Program
Evidence-based education and exercise program for hip and knee osteoarthritis. Combines symptom management education with supervised exercise sessions to reduce pain progression, improve mobility, and decrease reliance on pain medications while promoting long-term joint health.

My current PT in California was out with a COVID exposure and I was desperate to have my knee worked on so I could continue training. Knowing I was going to be in the area I reached out to Erie Shore which welcomed me and helped me out in a quick and kind manner. I was impressed with the Physio I met with as well as the facility which is equipped with all of the tools needed to recover and be well! Don't hesitate! Give them a call and Be Well!

I had a knee replacement March of 2021, and within 4 days I was introduced to Melissa. She along with the rest of the staff of Erie Shores Rehabilitation I had contact with, were kind and sensitive to the pain I was in. Melissa had my range of motion in my surgical knee, back to where it should be in a short period of time. It was painful, but she made it bearable and worthwhile. Im not sure what Id be walking like if I didnt have Melissa and Erie Shores Rehabilitation. Thank you!

From the moment you walk in, to the time your session is over, you feel welcome at Erie Shores Rehab! Everyone is super friendly, patient and encouraging. I had plantar fasciitis for about 4 months and Physiotherapist Melissa worked with me to get it under control. It took a lot of trial and error, but she was determined to get me back walking without pain. Each session she gave me great advice, stretches and ideas to try. I can honestly say that Im healed and so glad to be able to get back to my regular walking routine! Thanks to all!

My sessions at Erie Shores Rehabilitation were a very pleasant experience. In my middle 70's, I needed guidance to strengthen my pelvic floor. My sessions with Heather were great, I felt at ease with her immediately. Her recommended exercises and instructions have been extremely helpful and the staff at Erie Shores Rehabilitation were consistently friendly and accommodating; it was all a very pleasant experience. I've been sharing my experience and recommending their services with friends my age - for all of us, this has been quite an education that was not available to us when we were younger

A little background, this was not my first rodeo with physio:) However, it IS the ONLY physio i recommend. I have been to a few different physio groups and this is the only one that gave one on one attention to my session. During this specific injury Melissa was my physiotherapist. Her attention to MY injury along with MY goals to get my life back on track was appreciated immensely! She worked with me to get me to a point where i could go back to life as it was before the injury. Not everyone heals the same and this was taken into consideration upon the initial visit. I appreciate Erie Shores Rehabilitation
