We make a point of providing exceptional healthcare

Pinpoint Physiotherapy & Health has been helping Nanaimo residents recover and rehabilitate since 2014.

Multidisciplinary Care

Pinpoint is a Nanaimo physiotherapy-focused clinic located in the beautiful downtown core, staffed by a team of professionals who take the time to find the true root of your problem.

A physician’s referral is not required to access the physiotherapy and naturopathic services offered at Pinpoint.

Careful approach

We take care to restore, maintain, and maximize your overall health and well-being.

We focus on building strength, function, and movement through the rehabilitation of orthopaedic conditions, including many issues of the muscles, nerves, and bones.

Our team is skilled in many therapeutic techniques to assist and accelerate your recovery in a way that’s best for you.

Expert team

Our therapists have a broad spectrum of experience that our entire team draws upon.

The Physios at Pinpoint have all worked in the hospital setting with medical and orthopaedic patients, and are skilled at progressing you at an appropriate pace through your recovery.

Our team members continue to expand and hone their skills, and are committed to integrating current research with expertise, client values, and available resources.

Generous appointments

We believe that effective therapy is built upon a combination of expertise, care, and time.

Our generous appointment slots give you one-on-one time to voice to your concerns, check your exercises, and reassess your progress.

This approach allows your therapist to effectively and quickly progress you to the point where you no longer need our services.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the goal of physiotherapy?

    A physiotherapist’s goal is to restore, maintain and maximize your strength, function, movement and overall well-being. We understand that everyone has different objectives. The demands on your body differ greatly depending on whether you work a heavy job, or have a baby, or run marathons, or all three! We will help you set and achieve appropriate end-points based on your injury and interests.

  • Does Pinpoint offer naturopathic services?

    Yes! We are pleased to now offer naturopathic medicine and advanced injection therapies in addition to our wide range of physiotherapy treatments.

  • Do I have to pay for physiotherapy in BC?

    Yes. Physiotherapy in British Columbia is primarily a privately paid service, and the most common source of payment is through any extended benefits you might have through your work. If you do not have extended benefits you pay for the services directly out of pocket.

    There is funding for specific groups like RCMP members, Veterans, and those injured in car or workplace accidents. Some individuals qualify for a reduced rate, partially funded by the government, but you will need to provide your birthdate and BC Services Card (CareCard) number for us to check on this.

  • Do I pay if the session is for an ICBC claim?

    Clients seeking physiotherapy services after a motor vehicle accident do not pay any assessment fees if the treatment is ICBC-approved. However, the patient will pay $10 for subsequent sessions.

    • you will require a claim number and approval from ICBC
    • clients without a claim number will be charged our normal rate
    • remember to bring your Care Card to your appointment

  • Do RCMP members and Veterans receive special rates?

    Pinpoint will bill services directly to Medavie Blue Cross. No charges apply.

  • When do I pay for treatments?

    The time of payment depends on the source of your funding.

    • if there is a cost borne by you it is usually due the same day as the appointment
    • we offer direct billing to 3rd-party insurers, so feel free to call the clinic at 250.591.3730 if you have further questions'
    • if, for example, you have a lawyer covering the cost of treatment, you may not be required to pay at all
