East Toronto Orthopaedic & Sports Injury Clinic and Trilogy Physiotherapy have partnered in order to provide you with the experienced and skilled care you deserve.
Exercise therapy is an important form of treatment that can greatly contribute to the recovery process for many injuries and conditions, both orthopaedic and those affecting other systems of the body.
Staying active is a vital part of a healthy lifestyle. The benefits of exercise are wide-reaching physically, emotionally, and for cognitive functioning. Getting active can offset the negative effects of a sedentary workday while providing stimulation to the body and mind.
Many patients also find exercise stimulating on a social level when they participate in a group setting, or as a pair. Rather than viewing exercise as a chore, movement can be fun and dynamic. Variety and on-going stimulation can help make exercise an enjoyable aspect of your weekly routine. Your physiotherapist can help you to establish the correct level and type of exercise for your condition.
Exercise Therapy for Parkinson’s Disease (returning September 2021)
For individuals with Parkinson’s disease, exercise can improve mobility and range of motion, reduce stiffness and soreness, and improve posture, gait, balance.
To increase oxygen flow and maintain a healthy nervous system, heart, and lungs, aerobic exercise is particularly important. Exercise can also alleviate symptoms of depression, which can be common among individuals with Parkinson’s. In addition, learning-based physical exercises can improve memory. Specific exercises have also been shown to be helpful in improving walking.
Your physiotherapist will custom-design an exercise program specific to your needs. The exercise program will be regularly reviewed and progressed to ensure that you are working as efficiently as you can towards your goals. Rather than staying at a plateau in your progress, the program continues to challenge your body at a healthy and continuous rate so that you are always reaching new heights.

This is a great place to take your classes or exercise therapy. I was there for the GLA:D exercise programme led by Sarah Phillips. She was clear, concise and encouraging when needed. The reception staff are friendly and professional. All in all, a very good experience and convenient location too.

Trevor was great! He provided detailed information (which I asked for 😀) to understand my injury (damaged ligaments on my foot), and provided a very reasonable and doable exercise/physio regimen, which he adjusted as my recovery progressed. Staff at the clinic are also lovely! Thank you!

I had the pleasure of working with Sarah Phillips through my recovery from a torn Achilles. She kept me informed at every stage, explained what to expect, and adjusted my therapy to overcome any challenges. Thanks to her expertise, I made consistent progress and had an excellent overall recovery at the end.
Beyond her skill, Sarah’s warm and friendly personality made every session enjoyable and motivating. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of expert, compassionate physiotherapy care.

My good friend recommended me to the Dr. was very honest and very helpful in telling me what to go going forward. Gave me exercises to do at home. How to handle stairs with less pain.
Would highly recommend him if you are in pain of any kind. Very helpful and near public transit.

I booked a series of appointments to try and establish a good therapeutic schedule and after the first one the therapist insisted I come back to see her earlier than planned - which I did... booking a 45 minute follow-up that turned into a distracted 20 minutes of her note taking... they did adjust the billing to reflect a 30 minute session but it was not an auspicious start.
Then I received a garbled voicemail that seemed to cancel my third appointment - which I had booked a month in advance. It blamed the error on someone at the clinic who forgot to update the schedule... but both my follow-ups to confirm / reschedule were completely ignored.
Consider another company or at least another location...
