PHYSIOTHERAPY

Physiotherapy can prevent injury and disability, improve the management of acute and chronic conditions, and enhance overall physical performance for sport or recreation. It promotes faster recovery after surgery or illness, while also providing the education and strategies needed to manage existing conditions and prevent recurrence.

Prehabilitation — or “prehab” — is care provided before surgery to address specific weaknesses, reduce complications, and help you recover faster afterward. While surgical wait times in Nova Scotia can be lengthy, this period can still be used productively to improve strength, flexibility, and endurance through a customized prehabilitation program. This preparation leaves you better equipped to handle surgery and accelerates your recovery when it’s complete.

Our physiotherapists also offer comprehensive post-operative care, ensuring that you rebuild strength, manage pain, and regain function safely after your procedure.

At Apex, physiotherapy services include one-on-one sessions, guided exercise programs, acupuncture and dry needling, manual therapy, and muscle strength testing. Every plan begins with a thorough assessment to understand your goals and design a treatment approach that supports lasting progress.
