At Attain Health, physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Tiana Ulrich frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:

• Tired of knee pain, especially when going up/down stairs or after a run interfering with sleeping soundly through the night without being woken by pain or discomfort? Tiana Ulrich uses a blend of physiotherapy techniques to help you achieve being active again without the constant worry of pain or re-injury and regain your freedom of movement.
• Many find that needing to improve my breathing patterns or lung capacity significantly impacts their ability to participating in community events and social gatherings more actively. Tiana Ulrich helps patients target a significantly reduced risk of falling, enhancing safety and independence with physiotherapy, making a return to these activities possible.
• Patients struggling with recovering from a concussion and dealing with lingering symptoms like dizziness or headaches can find dedicated and compassionate support from Tiana Ulrich. The therapeutic focus is squarely on achieving feeling significantly stronger and more capable in their physical abilities, using a range of physiotherapy services to facilitate a return to meaningful daily activities such as using garden tools effectively and without pain.
• Tiana Ulrich frequently assists patients in overcoming the effects of that burning pain between my shoulder blades from too much computer work. A carefully designed physiotherapy program, potentially including specialized manual techniques and progressive exercises, targets a feeling of being 'unstuck' and more supple and supports your enthusiastic engagement in desired activities like travelling more comfortably on planes, trains, or in cars for longer durations.

Your personalized physiotherapy plan, developed with Tiana Ulrich, will be designed to help you reach your specific functional and wellness objectives.

Tiana Ulrich practices at Attain Health, a physiotherapy clinic in the central Tillsonburg neighborhood of Tillsonburg, ON. The clinic is conveniently located near nearby parks and community recreation facilities and is accessible via local public transit routes. Our clinic is accessible. Street parking and nearby paid lots offer convenient options for visitors.

Is physiotherapy covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

OHIP generally does NOT cover physiotherapy services in private outpatient clinics for most Ontarians. Publicly funded physiotherapy is available in specific situations (e.g., post-hospitalization for certain conditions, for children/youth, seniors, or through Community Physiotherapy Clinics/Family Health Teams), but eligibility criteria are strict and there may be waitlists. Always check your private/extended health insurance plan, as many offer significant physiotherapy coverage for services in private clinics.

What are Attain Health's operating hours?

Attain Health is typically open Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM, and some practitioners offer Saturday appointments from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM. However, hours can vary by practitioner and day, so please call the clinic or check their website for the most current hours and specific practitioner availability.

What should I do if my condition seems to worsen after a physiotherapy session?

It's not uncommon to experience some temporary soreness or a mild increase in symptoms after certain physiotherapy treatments, especially in the initial stages or if you're starting new exercises. This usually subsides within 24-48 hours. However, if you experience a significant or sharp increase in pain, new or worsening neurological symptoms (like numbness, tingling, or weakness), or if your soreness lasts longer than expected, it's important to contact Attain Health or your physician directly. They can provide advice, adjust your treatment plan if necessary, or determine if you need to be reassessed.

Is there anything specific I should bring to my first physiotherapy appointment?

For your first visit, please bring your provincial health card (e.g., Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) card, if applicable), any relevant medical information such as a doctor's referral note (if you have one), reports from recent imaging (like X-rays, MRI, or ultrasound scans), and a list of your current medications. Also, if you plan to use private health insurance, bring your insurance card or policy details. Finally, wear or bring comfortable clothing suitable for assessment and movement.

Can physiotherapy help prevent injuries or recurring pain?

Yes, absolutely! Physiotherapy plays a significant role in injury prevention and managing recurring pain. Your Physiotherapist can identify underlying risk factors such as muscle imbalances, poor movement patterns, postural issues, or biomechanical inefficiencies. By addressing these through targeted exercises, education on proper body mechanics, ergonomic advice, and activity modification, physiotherapy can help reduce your risk of initial injury, prevent re-injury, and manage chronic conditions more effectively, keeping you active and healthy.

Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Physiotherapist in ON?

Patients in ON can typically see a Physiotherapist directly without a physician's referral (direct access). However, some private/extended health insurance plans require a referral for reimbursement. Check your insurance policy before your first appointment.
