Physiotherapy Program
Bridges Community Health Centre offers free physiotherapy services to residents of the community who do not have private insurance or a workplace benefit plan.
The program offers an individualized, patient-centered assessment and plan to treat physical conditions that would benefit from physiotherapy. Clients will be supported to manage their condition independently with education, home-exercise program, and referral to other community programs.
