Rutland Physical Therapy is a Kelowna Physiotherapy, Osteopathy & Manual Therapy Clinic.

Patient centered therapists

Physiotherapists at Rutland Physical Therapy are licensed healthcare professionals who work autonomously and collaboratively with physicians and healthcare teams. All the Physiotherapists at Rutland Physical Therapy have taken extensive post-graduate courses in manual therapy. With a patient-centred approach, your RPT physiotherapist will use evidence-informed knowledge of rehabilitation sciences, anatomy, kinesiology and physiology to assess, treat, and manage pain, injuries, movement dysfunction, and chronic conditions

Your Physiotherapist (or physical therapist) will work with you to put together a treatment plan for your condition or injury, so you can get back to enjoying life and the activities you love. They also provide education and treatments aimed at health promotion and disease and injury prevention. 

How can we help you?

Your physiotherapist will assess you using detailed history-taking and specific physical tests and measures, such as flexibility or range of motion. They will then analyze the assessment findings and use clinical reasoning to establish a diagnosis. Together, you will explore your current abilities and functional needs so the physiotherapist can plan treatments consistent with your goals and general health status. They will do this by incorporating approaches and techniques supported by the best evidence available.

Beyond classic Manual Therapy, your Physiotherapist may recommend use of traditional techniques such as acupuncture or may use newer technologies such as Real-time Ultrasound, Cold Laser Therapy, Shockwave Therapy or Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS), which is modern version of acupuncture.

 

Telehealth

If needed, you can work with an RPT therapist through Telehealth. Using Zoom for Healthcare, which is a secure system, your therapist may be able to give an assessment of your condition, help you keep on track with your rehab exercises, get self-care tips or even learn relaxation techniques. This can be a good way to begin or extend your rehab without having to do as much travel to our clinic. To find out if this would be the right fit for yourself, please go to Telehealth.
