Essentials of Breastfeeding is going virtual!!! We are meeting the needs of our clients during this unprecedented time.

***News Update Essential Physiotherapy and Wellness remains OPEN during this time. The government supports that physiotherapists and other regulated health professionals may continue to operate, consistent with the current guidelines from their regulatory body and the ministry of heath. Our physiotherapists, chiropractor and massage therapists along with our support staff will continue to follow strict COVID quidelines in order to offer you safe in-clinic sessions. Accessing health care services is listed as an essential purpose to leave you home. Therefore, attending your appointment is an exception to the 'stay home order'. If you prefer a virtual appointment that can be booked instead. Our staff are here to help you.

A new year often brings new resolutions. We propose you contemplate prioritizing YOUSELF. Your body is all you have. Do you service your car? Do schedule regular oil changes? Do you fill your car with premium gas? Do you find the better you take care of your car the better it last or gets better mileage? Your body is no different. Taking care of your body and getting regular treatment pays off. Unlike a car, your body has no trade ins. Listen to the ‘noises' your bo...dy makes because it could be a warning sign and if ignored would cost you more to fix down the road. #onebodyonelife #preventioniskey #bodycare #physiotherapy #massagetherapy #chiropractic

The City of Brantford has decided NOT to open our volunteer run outdoor neighborhood rinks this year due to COVID. Other communities are moving forward with opening their rinks with a COVID plan in place. The Brantford volunteers want the opportunity to do the same. Please consider signing the petition to support the rinks to open and keep out community active.

Hello and Happy New Year!!! 2020 was a year of change and growth for us at Essential Physiotherapy (for obvious reasons but also for much more). We renovated and took over space in our building. We moved the massage therapists upstairs and now have a classroom. We hired more staff (2 Pelvic Floor Physiotherapists, 1 Orthopedic Physiotherapist and 2 part-time front desk). We expanded our programs. We have had some awesome co-op students. We were home of FamilyLife Fitne...ss for a bit and have some great collaborations planned for the new year. We have adapted and survived during a pandemic! I am thankful for my family, our clients and especially for my staff for being the reason we have been able to succeed. 2021 brings us 365 new opportunities. I know I have been fortunate this year. I know not everyone has. My plan this year is to take even more opportunities to support my community and especially support other local businesses. ~Sherri #brantfordstrong #2021rocksalready #supportlocalbusiness #supportlessfortunate #opportunityawaits

Given that we have physiotherapists committed to women’s health many of our clients ask questions about hormones or more specifically menopause. Here is a free online talk to those who are interested ~ the pelvic physio team https://fb.me/e/1zT9QHbRh

Do you feel pelvic pressure? You may have a pelvic organ prolapse. Pelvic organ prolapses happen when the muscles and tissues supporting the pelvic organs (the uterus, bladder, or rectum) become dysfunctional. This in turn causes one or more of the pelvic organs to drop or press into or out of the vagina. These symptoms may come and go but our Pelvic Floor Therapist's can not emphasis enough how important it is to listen to your body. Give us a call 519-752-2151 to find out if you may be a candidate for pelvic floor physiotherapy.

Are you working from home? What are some of your challenges? Our clients are telling us reaching a work life balance while working from home is one of their biggest challenges. Not to mention the stress of dealing with the distractions and chaos of being at home. From your pets to your children and even the laundry piling up, this can all weigh in on your productivity.... Our therapists are finding there has been an increase in neck, back and shoulder issues with people working from home. Our therapists believe the biggest home office contributors are stress and the poor ergonomics. Self-care and ergonomics are important. Book an appointment today to find out what you can do to help yourself. 519-752-2151

We know too well that running is an addiction for many clients. Thanks to local Coach Rick Josie Mannen for being able to keep things going in these unprecedented times. Great job runners.

Well this is something we can stand behind. You engage their bodies you will engage their minds. That is something we discovered when we, along with Leslie Simpson and Anca Gaston, did a ball study with the grade 2 class at Banbury Heights School.
