Physiotherapy

Your Personalised Physiotherapy Care

Physiotherapy in Calgary can help you understand why pain, injury, and limited movement are quietly shrinking your world, whether that means skipping a run, dreading a full day at your desk, or sitting out the activities you usually enjoy, and help you build a plan to move through it. When something is off in your spine, the rest of your body knows it. Pain, stiffness, fatigue, recurring injuries; these are often signals of something deeper. At Cūro Chiropractic in SW Calgary, we take the time to find out what that something is.

At Cūro Chiropractic, our physiotherapist combines hands-on care, exercise, and evidence-based rehabilitation to create a plan built around your body and your goals, not a generic protocol.

Who comes to see us for physiotherapy

Whatever brings you in, we take the time to assess your concerns and build a plan around your specific goals, not a one-size-fits-all program. Physiotherapy at Cūro supports a wide range of patients, each with a different starting point:

  • Active people managing an injury - Runners, gym-goers, and weekend athletes recovering from a sprain, strain, or sports injury, looking for structured, hands-on rehab to get back to the activities they enjoy.
  • Desk-based professionals with everyday pain - Office workers dealing with neck pain, back pain, or joint pain linked to long hours at a desk and repetitive strain.
  • Patients with specialised needs - People navigating concussion or vestibular symptoms, TMJ (jaw) dysfunction, or recovering from surgery.

What can physiotherapy help with?

Many patients arrive focused on one concern and, through a fuller assessment,
gain a clearer picture of how it connects to the rest of how they move.

What to expect during your physiotherapy assessment


Your first appointment is about understanding the full picture, not just your symptoms. It’s about us having a picture of who you are, what you enjoy, what your baseline is, and what your goals are. Here is what the process typically looks like:

A thorough initial assessment

Your first visit starts with a conversation about your history, your goals, and what has been getting in the way. We combine this with a hands-on physiotherapy assessment of your movement, strength, and function to understand what is really going on.

Manual therapy and Mulligan techniques

Where appropriate, your assessment and care may include manual therapy and Mulligan techniques; hands-on approaches used to support joint mobility and reduce restriction.

A plan built around your goals

From there, we will outline a plan tailored to your specific concerns, whether that is returning to sport, managing pain at your desk, or working through a concussion or TMJ concern.

Your personalised care plan

Every care plan at Cūro is built around your goals, not a fixed template. Your physiotherapy plan may include:

  • A hands-on assessment of your movement and function
  • Manual therapy and Mulligan techniques where appropriate
  • Exercise therapy and a home program tailored to your goals
  • Dry needling, where suitable for your concern
  • Education and injury prevention strategies
  • Specialised support for concussion or vestibular, or TMJ concerns where relevant


This is care focused on lasting progress, not a quick fix.

Frequently asked questions about
physiotherapy in Calgary

Is physiotherapy safe?

Yes. Physiotherapy is a regulated, evidence-based approach to movement and injury care. We conduct a thorough assessment before recommending any care to make sure it is appropriate for your specific needs and history.

Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?

No. You do not need a referral to book a physiotherapy appointment at Cūro. You can book directly online or by calling our clinic.

Is physiotherapy covered by insurance?

Many extended health benefit plans include coverage for physiotherapy, and Cūro offers direct billing to make this more convenient. We recommend confirming your specific coverage with your provider.

How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

This depends on your goals and the nature of your concern. After your initial assessment, we will recommend a plan with a clear path forward. Some patients notice progress within a few sessions, while others working through a more complex concern benefit from a longer plan.

What is the difference between physiotherapy and chiropractic care?

Both support movement and pain management, but they use different approaches. Physiotherapy focuses on assessment, manual therapy, and exercise-based rehabilitation, while chiropractic care centers on spinal alignment and nervous system function. Many patients benefit from both as part of a coordinated plan.

Can physiotherapy help after a concussion?

Yes. We can assess symptoms such as dizziness or balance changes as part of a structured recovery plan.
