Physiotherapy

Advanced Physiotherapy Services & Recovery Techniques

Our physiotherapy services are designed to help you move better, feel stronger, and recover with confidence. Whether you’re managing pain, rehabilitating an injury, or working toward long-term mobility and performance goals, care is guided by evidence-based practice, individualised assessment, and purposeful progression.

Physiotherapy at HillStar focuses on restoring movement quality and function. Treatment plans may include a combination of hands-on therapy, targeted exercise prescription, and advanced therapeutic modalities such as dry needling, cupping, traction therapy, electrotherapy, therapeutic ultrasound, and Class 3B laser therapy. These tools are applied strategically to reduce pain and inflammation, promote tissue healing, restore mobility, and support safe, efficient recovery.

We proudly accept WCB (Workers’ Compensation Board) physiotherapy cases and work closely with injured workers, employers, and case managers to support safe recovery and a timely return to work.

Our Comprehensive Physiotherapy Approach

Our physiotherapy treatments may include a combination of hands-on care, therapeutic exercise, and advanced rehabilitation modalities, including, but not limited to:

Dry Needling Therapy

Targets muscular trigger points to reduce pain, release deep muscle tension, and restore normal movement. Commonly used for sports injuries, muscle tightness, and chronic pain conditions.

Cupping Therapy

Improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and promotes soft tissue healing. Effective for muscle stiffness, fascial restrictions, and recovery from overuse injuries.

Class 3B Laser Therapy

A non-invasive laser treatment that accelerates tissue healing, reduces inflammation, and supports cellular repair. Frequently used for joint pain, soft tissue injuries, and post-surgical rehabilitation.

Manual Therapy

Hands-on physiotherapy techniques such as joint mobilization and soft tissue therapy to improve mobility, relieve pain, and restore proper joint and muscle function.

Therapeutic Exercise & Rehabilitation

Customized exercise programs designed to build strength, increase flexibility, enhance stability, and support safe return to daily activities, work, or sport.

Postural & Movement Retraining

Identifies and corrects faulty movement patterns and postural strain that contribute to pain or injury, helping prevent recurrence and improve overall body mechanics.

Injury Prevention & Functional Training

Focuses on balance, coordination, and load tolerance to reduce injury risk and support long-term physical performance.

Electrotherapy

Uses controlled electrical stimulation to reduce pain, decrease muscle spasm, improve circulation, and support neuromuscular re-education.

Therapeutic Ultrasound

Promotes tissue healing and reduces inflammation using sound wave technology, particularly beneficial for tendons, ligaments, and soft tissue injuries.

 

Traction Therapy

A gentle decompression technique used to relieve pressure on spinal joints and nerves, often helpful for neck pain, low back pain, and disc-related conditions.

 

Each physiotherapy treatment plan at HillStar Integrated Health is tailored to the individual, combining clinical expertise with a collaborative approach to care. Our goal is to help patients regain strength, restore function, and move with confidence.

We are an approved WCB physiotherapy provider and welcome Workers’ Compensation Board cases. Our team works closely with injured workers, employers, and case managers to support safe recovery and a timely return to work.
