Although Physiotherapy Mississauga consists of a
wide range of approaches and techniques, they are
often used in combination to achieve the maximum
level of effectiveness. It is best to consult and
inform your physiotherapist of your needs and any
health related information. Some of the
techniques that physiotherapists in Mississauga
utilize include joint manipulation, muscle
stretching (PNF), shockwave therapy and even
physiotherapy instrument mobilization (PIM).
Joint manipulation and mobilization is a manual
therapy technique that is used to treat and
rehabilitate the joints. Joint manipulation
includes a quick thrust of the joint to provide
instant relief. However, Joint mobilization is
the use of slow movements of the joint. This may
be effective for those who have suffered injury
or have stiffness in their joints and muscles.

Muscle stretching, often known as Proprioceptive
Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF), is a unique
technique that overtime allows the muscles to
stretch and relax. This is beneficial for
athletes, as vigorous exercise can shorten and
tighten the muscles. The process of muscle
contraction can help elongate muscles. This
essentially also promotes flexibility and muscle
endurance. Shockwave therapy uses a device that
provides quick pain relief as well as mobility
restoration. It is a device that targets painful
areas with an acoustic high-energy wave. This
promotes regeneration and rehabilitation of the
joints, tendons and soft tissue. This method can
be used to treat many acute and chronic
illnesses. Physiotherapy instrument mobilization
(PIM) uses a mechanical spring based instrument
to mobilize you spinal and peripheral joints. It
is primarily used to eliminate and ease of stiff
joints. This technique makes use of

tension tests as well as neurological testing.
