Spine & Joint Pain

At True Potential, physiotherapy and exercise physiology work together on spine and joint pain. Kaitlyn's hands-on assessment and treatment manage the acute, painful or post-surgical stages using joint and soft tissue techniques, while our exercise physiologists build the structured, progressively loaded program that restores function and reduces the chance of it recurring. You move between the two as needed, under one roof, with one plan for your recovery.
