• Postpartum Pelvic Floor Dysfunction (e.g., Incontinence, Pain, Prolapse): Pelvic floor issues arising after childbirth (vaginal or C-section), such as urinary or fecal incontinence, perineal pain, painful intercourse (dyspareunia), symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse, or tailbone pain.
• Pregnancy-Related Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP) / Low Back Pain / Sciatica: Managing discomfort, improving stability, and maintaining function during pregnancy through safe and effective physiotherapy, including manual therapy, specific exercises, postural advice, and support belt recommendations.

Pelvic Health

• Urinary Incontinence (Stress, Urge, Mixed - Men & Women): Physiotherapy for improved bladder control and pelvic floor function, helping you regain confidence and reduce the impact of incontinence on your daily life.
• Painful Intercourse (Dyspareunia) / Vaginismus / Genito-Pelvic Pain/Penetration Disorder: Addressing the physical (musculoskeletal and neuromuscular) components of painful intercourse or penetration difficulties through targeted physiotherapy interventions.
• Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS - Men & Women): Helping to reduce chronic pain in the pelvis, improve muscle function, desensitize painful areas, and enhance your quality of life when dealing with persistent pelvic pain.

Chronic Pain

• Persistent Post-Surgical Pain (Chronic): Ongoing pain that continues for more than 3-6 months after a surgical procedure, well beyond the expected healing period, and is not attributable to other causes like infection or implant failure.
• Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) - Supportive Care: Gentle, carefully progressed, and specialized physiotherapy to help manage the challenging symptoms of CRPS and improve functional abilities.
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome / Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) - Activity Management: A complex, chronic illness characterized by profound, persistent fatigue (not relieved by rest and often worsened by exertion - Post-Exertional Malaise or PEM), accompanied by other symptoms like pain, cognitive difficulties ('brain fog'), unrefreshing sleep, and orthostatic intolerance. Physiotherapy focuses on careful activity management and pacing, not graded exercise therapy that pushes through fatigue.

At Reform Pelvic Health Physiotherapy & Rehab Clinic, physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Chandni Chadha frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:

• At Chandni Chadha's physiotherapy practice, individuals with feeling like my joints are just 'wearing out' and getting harder to move are guided towards enhanced pelvic floor function and control (for relevant conditions). The focus is on enabling you to once again participate fully and comfortably in activities you enjoy, such as attending concerts or theatre shows and sitting comfortably throughout.
• Dealing with the ongoing challenges of widespread muscle pain and fatigue that my doctor thinks might be fibromyalgia? Chandni Chadha works collaboratively with patients to reach the goal of feeling more stable and confident on their feet, especially on uneven surfaces. This might involve specific rehabilitation techniques, hands-on care, and a home program, all aimed at helping you confidently resume important activities, such as safely meeting the lifting requirements at their workplace.
• Don't let recovering my strength and mobility after a knee or hip replacement surgery dictate what you can and cannot do. Chandni Chadha offers physiotherapy solutions aimed at greater confidence when walking, standing, or navigating challenging environments, helping you reclaim sleeping soundly through the night without being woken by pain or discomfort and enjoy a more functional life.
• Chandni Chadha believes that everyone deserves to move well and feel their best. If my infant having a tilted head or a flat spot on their head (torticollis/plagiocephaly) is hindering your ability to participating in water aerobics or other pool-based exercises, a personalized plan focusing on a better ability to cope with the physical stresses of daily life can make all the difference.

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

The clinic is conveniently located near Rose Theatre and is accessible via Brampton Transit (including Züm BRT). Our clinic is accessible. Free patient parking is typically available on-site or nearby.

What is manual therapy in physiotherapy?

Manual therapy involves skilled, hands-on treatments performed by your Physiotherapist as part of your overall physiotherapy plan. These techniques are designed to assess and treat your joints, muscles, and nerves to decrease pain and improve your mobility and function. Examples include specific joint mobilizations to improve movement, soft tissue release techniques to address muscle tightness or scar tissue, and sometimes manipulations (adjustments) if indicated and appropriate for your condition and your therapist's qualifications.

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 of the population. 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. It is strongly advised to check your private insurance for private clinic coverage.

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.

What types of conditions do Physiotherapists at Reform Pelvic Health Physiotherapy & Rehab Clinic treat?

Our Physiotherapists treat a wide range of musculoskeletal and pelvic health conditions. This includes, but is not limited to, back and neck pain, joint problems, sports injuries, and nerve pain. We also have therapists with specialized skills in pelvic health physiotherapy. Our treatments often involve Comprehensive Musculoskeletal Assessment, Pre-Natal (Pregnancy) Physiotherapy, and patient education.

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. This usually subsides within 24-48 hours. However, if you experience a significant or sharp increase in pain, new or worsening neurological symptoms, or if your soreness lasts longer than expected, contact Reform Pelvic Health Physiotherapy & Rehab Clinic immediately.

What should I expect during my first physiotherapy appointment?

Your first visit will involve a detailed evaluation including a discussion of your symptoms, medical history, and goals. A physical assessment will help pinpoint the cause of your problem. Your therapist will then explain their findings, set treatment goals, and outline a plan of care.
