Best Health Physio - Knowledge in Motion

There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all body. When you experience pain, discomfort, or limited motion, you need more than a one-size-fits-all treatment approach. Drawing on decades of combined physiotherapy experience at Best Health Physio, we design and deliver physiotherapy treatments customized to your needs.

Our approach to physiotherapy assessment and treatment acknowledges that each individual’s condition is unique and will require unique treatment. Our work with patients involves careful attentive listening, thorough physical assessment, and thoughtful intervention – as the patient, your needs and goals are central to this process.

We have broad training in varied approaches to musculoskeletal assessment and treatment, including techniques such as acupuncture, manual mobilization, LASER, therapeutic Ultrasound, Electrical Stimulation, specific exercise and education. Our therapists have particular expertise and training in several specific areas of dysfunction (see Conditions Treated).

Additionally, we believe in a healthy active lifestyle as an important part of your recovery from injury or dysfunction. Our clinic offers regular, free introductory Nordic Pole Walking instruction to support our patients, and the greater Kingston community, in achieving increased activity levels. Nordic Pole Walking, a great physical activity for most ages and abilities, provides a total body and cardiovascular workout accessible to just about anyone.

At Best Health Physiotherapy, our approach is always to educate and to provide you with the tools you need to understand – and to benefit fully from - your treatment. We look forward to putting our knowledge in motion for you.
