WE ARE OPEN!
We are still open through the stay-at-home order, effective April 7, 2021.
We have missed our extended family and can’t wait to see you! With the recent Ministry of Health announcement, we are now able to see all clients in person for all conditions. We will be limiting the number of clients into the clinic with only one physiotherapist working per day. We wanted to thank you so much your continued support and encouragement during this difficult time. We have made some significant change our clinic:
- No use of common areas (all clients will be given private treatment rooms)
- Temperature checks
- Staff vaccinations (1st round completed)
- Pre-Screening for all patients permitted into the clinic
- Full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will be used by all staff
- Hospital grade cleaners (Anti-fungal, Anti-Viral and Anti-Bacterial) to be used to disinfect all room surfaces prior to and after use
- Limited numbers of clients to prevent ANY interaction
Please contact our administration staff to book an appointment (905-853-2511)!
