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

  • Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?

    No. A doctor’s referral is not required to see a physical therapist in British Columbia. You may need a doctor’s referral to claim physiotherapy expenses on your extended benefits. Please check with your provider.

  • Are physiotherapy treatments taxable?

    No, physiotherapy services in BC are not subject to GST or PST.

  • What do I need to use telehealth physiotherapy?

    Telehealth (aka virtual physiotherapy) requires that you have the following:

    • A relatively fast internet connection
    • A computer, tablet, or smartphone equipped with a camera, speakers, and a microphone

    To ensure your device is compatible with our telehealth system, please visit the system requirements page from our service provider Physitrack.

  • 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
  • What can I expect at my first physiotherapy appointment?

    On the first day we will assess your condition, educate you, and usually get started on treatment. Your assessment may include health history, evaluation of pain and movement patterns, strength, joint range of motion, reflexes, sensation, etc. Based on this assessment, your physiotherapist will establish a diagnosis and discuss your prognosis. They will work in partnership with you to develop an individualized treatment program. Expect your physiotherapist to guide you in performing therapeutic exercises in between appointments. Your progress will be monitored at follow-up visits and your physiotherapist may adjust your treatment according to changes in your body.
