Physiotherapy treats musculoskeletal and neuromuscular dysfunctions. The musculoskeletal and neuromuscular systems refer to the bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, nerves and joints anywhere in the body (from the jaw to the feet). Our physiotherapists at Competitive Edge Physiotherapy use a 3 step process to resolve one’s injuries:
- Diagnose your injury and resolve your symptoms
- Identify the cause(s) for your injury
- Provide the client with a personalize program that helps treat his/her symptoms, abolish the causes for the injury and prevent re-occurrence.
