Physiotherapy Clinic Calgary Downtown FAQs

What Is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy, often referred to as physical therapy, is a healthcare profession focused on the diagnosis, management, and prevention of movement disorders. It aims to enhance or restore the function of multiple body systems, primarily the musculoskeletal, neurological, respiratory, and cardiovascular systems.

How Often Do I Need To Visit for Optimal Results?

The frequency of your visits depends on the severity of your condition and your individual treatment plan. After your initial assessment, your physiotherapist will recommend a schedule that suits your needs.

Do I Need a Doctor’s Referral To Visit Avenue Physio?

While some insurance providers might require a doctor’s referral for reimbursement purposes, you do not need one to initiate physiotherapy at our clinic. However, it’s always a good idea to check with your insurance first.

How Soon Can I Expect To See Results?

The duration to see noticeable improvements varies for each individual and their specific condition. Some patients experience relief after just one session, while others might require multiple sessions. Regularly attending your sessions and following any prescribed home exercises will optimize your recovery.

Can I Combine Physiotherapy With Other Services, Such As Massage Therapy?

Yes, many patients find a combination of services to be beneficial for their recovery. You can discuss with your physiotherapist about incorporating other treatments into your care plan.

Did you used to be called Fifth Ave Physio?

Yes we did!. We moved to Stephen Avenue Place in April 2024 and changed our name to Avenue Physio. The clinic has been in business for 40 years with the name Fifth Ave Physio operating in three different locations on 5th Avenue SW, and one Clinic on 4th Avenue SW. When we moved to 9th Avenue we recognized the need to keep things simple and renamed the clinic to simply Avenue Physio.

Where are you located?

We are conveniently located in Stephen Avenue Place. The clinic is located on the main floor beside Time Hortons and across from Barbarella. For more detailed directions including where to park visit our contact us page.
