Greetings
Are you worried your injury or condition will worsen during this difficult time? Do you need help to meet your fitness goals while at home? Are you concerned about your rehabilitation progress?
We're still here for you! You can now connect to our physiotherapists, by phone or video call, from the safety and comfort of your home.

We use Physitrack - a secure healthcare platform for video calls. And if you'd prefer a lower tech approach, a simple phone call can work too.
During your virtual physiotherapy session, a physiotherapist can provide a provisional diagnosis, education on your condition, and a management plan. For example, a management plan could include a home exercise program and other advice on what you should be doing (or not doing) at home. Your physiotherapist can also monitor your progress to help you achieve your goals as quickly as possible.
On a video call, we can assess how you're moving, teach you exercises, and demonstrate self-care techniques. We can even teach your family members, or others in your household, how to assist you.

To do a virtual physiotherapy session by video, you'll need a computer, a smart phone or a tablet.
If you're using a computer, you'll need to use Firefox or Google Chrome as your browser. If you're using a smart phone or tablet, you'll need to download PhysiApp. Read more here on how you can prepare for your call.
Before your appointment, you'll receive a link by mail. Just click the link, provide your consent to proceed, and you'll be connected with your physiotherapist.
There are so many injuries and conditions that can be treated by virtual physiotherapy. Not sure if it's right for you? Call us to set up a free 15-minute phone consultation with one of our physiotherapists.
Virtual physiotherapy is covered by most health insurance companies, including Manitoba Public Insurance, the Worker's Compensation Board, Great West Life, Blue Cross, Sun Life, Green Shield, and more. Check with your insurance provider to confirm it's covered by your particular plan.
We miss seeing clients in person but we've been enjoying making virtual connections. We are thinking of all our clients - past and present - and we hope you are doing as well as possible during this challenging time.
Sincerely,
The team at River East Physiotherapy
