I work at the Vancouver General Hospital as a registered nurse.  The long shifts can put a strain on my body especially my neck and back.  The treatments at Fairview Physiotherapy were extremely helpful.  It gave me balance to my body again.  I felt like I could do all my regular activities freely once more.  I was also quite impressed with the style of treatment at Fairview Physiotherapy.

First of all, the sessions are one-to-one which is rare to find.  The therapists I’ve seen at other clinics will run around between 3-4 patients at a time and the actual one-to-one time was not very long at all (maybe 10-15 minutes).  On the other hand, the therapists at Fairview Physiotherapy will see only one patient at once.  I was given around 35 minutes of one-to-one time which was very appreciative because it allowed me to ask all my questions and get proper treatment.  I felt like the therapists spent a lot of time assessing me and explaining my diagnosis.  The treatments were manual therapy based and I was given some very helpful home exercises.  I would definitely recommend my friends and family to come to this clinic.
