Physiotherapy Services Re-opening Update: Effective May 26 with the release of the amended CMOH Directive #2 and a new guidance document "COVID-19 Operational Requirements: Health Sector Restart" physiotherapy clinics that meet the requirements may begin to open.

OPA has been, and is in daily communications with the Ministry, the CMOH and the College on the status of re-opening physiotherapy services in the community. We are pleased that our advocacy and the engagement of our members to amplify the voice of the profession has led to the regulatory changes that expanded the essential list to include regulated health professionals with no limitation for urgent care only. This final step in the amendment of Directive #2 opens the way to restarting physiotherapy services.

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a structure in the knee that primarily restricts the tibia’s movement on the femur and provide rotational stability. Some common symptoms that a patient might experience may include but is not limited to:
- Rapid swelling with pain
- Instability with weight bearing
- A “Popping” sensation in the knee
- Loss of full range of motion
- Tenderness along joint line

Treatment will vary upon the patient situation but physical therapy is recommended to restore function to knee and strengthen the muscles surrounding the joint as the swelling goes down.

If surgery is recommended, physical therapy after surgery will focus on returning motion to the joints and strength to the muscles. A strengthening program will be implemented to protect the new ligament and allow the athlete to return to sport.

If you are suffering from an ACL injury, please call us at 519-632-8822, Ayr Physiotherapy Clinic, to book an appointment with one of our Physiotherapists today!
