1. Physiotherapists work with the patient to regain their physical function after undergoing surgery, an injury, recovering from an illness or disease, workplace or motor vehicle accidents, and age-related conditions.
2. Physiotherapists can practice their profession in private practice clinics, hospitals, long term care facilities, client’s homes, schools, and community based clinics. 3. Don’t have a referral. Don’t worry! Physiotherapists are primary care practitioners. You can visit a physiotherapist without a referral. However, in order for physiotherapy services to be covered, some extended health insurance plans require a referral from your doctor 4. There are many areas in which physiotherapists work: post-operative care, neurology, orthopaedics, cardiorespiratory, sports medicine and animal rehabilitation. 5. There are a variety of benefits that physiotherapy treatment provides; including pain relief, increased joint range of motion, improved strength, and coordination. Physiotherapy can increase your independence and day to day function in your home, workplace or favourite leisure activity.

I didn't realize that physiotherapists were primary care practitioners, so you can visit without a referral. My brother recently got hurt during a track meet, so he has been looking for a therapist in the area. I'll be sure to ask if his insurance plan requires a referral or not first though.

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn't stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn't feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email [email protected]
