Telehealth Physiotherapy - Vancouver
Vancouver Physiotherapy Hub offers Telehealth physiotherapy – a virtual physical therapy treatment option available specifically through a secure, online platform. Now, you have the option to connect with our physiotherapists anywhere, any time, to get the treatment that you need! Because if the last year has taught us anything, it is that much of what we need should be accessible to everyone, no matter the physical barriers. Your access to high-quality, effective and safe physiotherapy should be no different.
The idea of online physical therapy can seem confusing because there is no hands-on component. But you can expect to receive the same high-quality, attentive and safe physiotherapy care in a virtual setting as you would from an in-person treatment. That’s because physical therapy is not just about manual therapy; it’s about using physical movements to treat chronic and acute conditions.
In fact, a new study done in British Columbia found that 79% of patients who participated in virtual care said that the quality of care was the exact same. As well, over 90% of people were content with their visit because it solved a health issue that needed to be dealt with, but they couldn’t receive in-person treatments.
At Vancouver Physiotherapy Hub, we know that especially right now, getting access to the treatments you need can be challenging. That is why we offer Telehealth services with our physiotherapists, so that you can get access to the same high quality and effective treatments that you need, from wherever you are.
How Your Virtual Physiotherapy Session Works:
In order to book your appointment, please consult your schedule and find a time that works with any one of our physiotherapists. Once you have decided on your appointment, you can book online or give our reception a call at 778-727-0810. From there, you will be sent an online intake form, which we ask you to fill out at least 24 hours before your appointment.
Our virtual physiotherapy sessions take place through our secure, online Teleconference software and a link will be forwarded to you prior to your appointment.
Once you meet with one of our physiotherapists, he or she will perform a detailed assessment, including health history and an intake of your chief concerns and complaints. They will also run you through a series of range-of-motion and movement tests to diagnose your issue, and assess your posture and biomechanics in relation to your condition
Our physical therapists will provide treatment, walking you through a series of exercises to help you. Our therapists will also guide you on how to manage and alleviate your symptoms, and give you strategies to help prevent future recurrence of your pain or issue. Lastly, we will give you a treatment plan, which includes stretching, strengthening and homecare-based activities to target your chief complaints.

Kris CuNovember 7, 2024. The team at Electra health are very kind and professional, I can’t recommend them enough! Karim Hilali was a fantastic Physiotherapist and helped me plan my recovery efficiently and effectively. He helped me understand the target muscles that we needed to work on and informed me of the best practices to keep them engaged and healthy. Can’t ask for a better experience. Maria SantosNovember 2, 2024. Christina is amazing, I was referred to her by a friend and I can see why! She’s knowledgeable and caring, she takes the time to understand and educate. satanai reinhardtOctober 22, 2024. Had severe back pain that would not go away, I was able to make an appointment the same day with Karim Hilali and he was very knowledgeable and did a variety of exercises and treatments, and sent me home with a summary of what we did so I could continue the exercises. He was professional and engaging, I would absolutely return to this practice. 2nRAZ EntertainmentOctober 5, 2024. This was my first time seeing Chris Connolly and he was very professional. His needles helped me a lot with my back pain. Also Tanya at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend coming here Joanna WooOctober 4, 2024. I've been treated by Karim 1-2x per week for the last 2-3 months due to an injury to my wrist and he's been a key part of my recovery! When we started, I could not turn a doorknob or lift anything above 2lbs, but with his guidance, I've been steadily recovering. I appreciate his level of expertise and thoroughness from a professional perspective, but also really enjoy sharing stories about the ridiculous things our cats do that make us both hate and love those chaotic fluffballs. Bree JOctober 1, 2024. I live about 13 hours north of this practice so I had to resort to a virtual appointment. Words can’t express how grateful I am they offer that. Karim actually educated me on my symptoms, and gave me great advice with an even better exercise program. I have spent over $2,000 locally in the last 6 months trying to feel better. Who knew my relief would be from a virtual visit. Thank you so much! Ming KwanOctober 1, 2024.
