Why You Shouldn't Ignore That "Tweak"
Sprains and strains are more than just minor inconveniences; they are the leading cause of injury claims in our province. According to 2023-2024 data from the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB), sprains and strains accounted for 38% of all lost-time claims in Ontario, totaling over 14,000 cases.
Furthermore, data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) shows that injuries account for approximately 13% of the 15 million emergency department visits across Canada annually. Ignoring a "minor" sprain can lead to chronic instability or re-injury. In fact, research indicates that without proper rehabilitation, the risk of re-injuring a sprained ankle can remain significantly high. Early intervention is key to preventing long-term issues.

Treatments that Work for Your Sprains and Strains
We use evidence-based therapies to speed up your recovery. Here is how we treat soft tissue injuries.
-
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care normalizes spinal function and restores joint mobility. Dr. Kevin Cheyne uses joint manipulation and soft tissue therapy to reduce muscle tension. This allows your body to handle the stress and strain of daily activities optimally.
-
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is integral to full recovery. Marek Lebzuch, our registered physiotherapist, uses hands-on manual therapy and strengthening exercises. This restores function to injured muscles and ligaments, helping you perform at your best.
-
Acupuncture
We use Contemporary Medical Acupuncture to relieve pain and improve performance. This nerve stimulation technique modulates pain signals and improves nervous system function. It is highly effective for speeding up injury recovery.
-
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy improves circulation and relaxes muscles. Aziz Ahmad, our RMT, manipulates muscles and connective tissue to reduce pain and increase mobility. It helps alleviate the discomfort associated with acute injuries.
-
Therapeutic Yoga
Yoga improves the mind-body connection. Laura McClean, our Therapeutic Yoga Specialist, guides you through safe techniques to increase flexibility. This is a proven method for dealing with chronic injuries and painful conditions within specific limits.
-
Custom Orthotics
Poor foot mechanics often cause pain in the knees, hips, and back. We design custom orthotics to provide optimal biomechanical support from the foot up. This restores balance and reduces strain on your musculoskeletal system.
-
In-Home Therapy
If your injury prevents you from visiting us, we come to you. We offer in-home chiropractic and physiotherapy treatments in the Etobicoke and East Mississauga regions. We bring the road to recovery right to your living room.
