Is physiotherapy effective for all stages of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Understand how physiotherapy can benefit mild to severe cases of CTS and whether it can prevent the need for surgery.
Is physiotherapy covered by insurance?
Many extended health plans provide coverage for physiotherapy. Your coverage, limits, and reimbursement requirements depend on your individual plan, so we recommend confirming your benefits with your insurer.
What should I wear or bring to my physiotherapy appointment?
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and gives your physiotherapist access to the area being assessed or treated. Bring your insurance information if you plan to use direct billing.
How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies depending on your condition, progress, and treatment goals. Your physiotherapist will reassess your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
Is deep tissue massage right for me?
Deep tissue suits persistent tension and tight areas that need firmer pressure. If you’re unsure, book a standard RMT massage and tell your therapist your concern — they’ll adjust pressure and technique to suit you.
