• Struggling with the frustration of shoulder pain that makes simple things like lifting my arm or reaching overhead difficult?

This is key to helping you get back to doing feeling energetic enough to engage in social activities in the evenings with confidence and significantly reduced discomfort.
• For those whose persistent dizziness that isn't a spinning vertigo but makes me feel unsteady has made playing actively and roughhousing with their young kids or grandkids seem like a distant memory, Nicole Newediuk's physiotherapy care offers a clear path toward the ability to sit for longer periods (e.g., at a desk, in a car) without significant discomfort. Effective, evidence-based treatments can be instrumental in helping you get back to playing actively and roughhousing with their young kids or grandkids with greater comfort and renewed confidence.
• Many individuals seek help from Nicole Newediuk, their physiotherapist, when needing help to get moving again after a long period of illness or inactivity starts impacting daily life. Through a personalized physiotherapy plan, they often achieve returning to their workout routine with greater confidence and better performance, empowering them to joyfully return to activities like being able to perform deep cleaning tasks around the house.

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

The clinic is conveniently located near Port Lands and is accessible via TTC (Subway, Streetcar, Bus). Our clinic is accessible.

What are Body Co.'s operating hours?

Body Co. 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 our office at or check our website/online booking portal at for the most current hours and specific practitioner availability.

What kind of clothing should I wear to my physiotherapy appointment?

It's recommended to wear or bring clothing that allows unrestricted movement and provides easy access for your physiotherapist to examine the body part being assessed or treated. For instance, if you have a knee problem, please wear or bring shorts. For shoulder issues, a sleeveless top or a top with loose armholes is often helpful. The goal is to make the assessment and treatment as effective as possible.

What is physiotherapy and how can it help me?

Essentially, physiotherapy helps you get moving and stay moving effectively and comfortably. Whether you're dealing with an acute injury, chronic pain, post-surgical recovery, or a condition affecting your physical abilities, your Physiotherapist will work with you. They'll use their expertise in body mechanics, rehabilitation, and pain management to create a personalized treatment plan involving exercises, hands-on techniques, and practical advice to help you achieve your functional goals and live a more active, fulfilling life.

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 Body Co. treat?

Our Physiotherapists treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. This includes, but is not limited to, back and neck pain, joint problems (arthritis or post-surgical recovery), and nerve pain. We also have therapists with specialized skills in Pelvic Health Physiotherapy and Orthopedic and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. Our treatments often involve manual therapy, exercise prescription, and patient education.

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

It's helpful to bring your health card, any referral letters, and any reports or images from relevant medical tests. If you have private insurance, bring your insurance card. Comfortable attire that allows for easy movement is also recommended.
