Exciting news!

Starting in early Spring, all qualified physiotherapists in Nova Scotia (including those working in private practice), will be able to refer patients for x-rays.

www.nshealth.ca/news-and-notices/physiotherapists-across-nova-scotia-will-soon-be-able-request-x-rays

β€œThis announcement will optimize the scope of practice for Nova Scotia physiotherapists who work in private practice and as a result, improve timely access for patients needing general radiography,” says Monica MacDonald, President of the Nova Scotia Physiotherapy Association. β€œIt will save patients from unnecessary additional appointments to get a requisition if an x-ray is deemed necessary. We are excited to better support our patients and help them efficiently navigate the healthcare system.”

It is encouraging to see reductions in system barriers that will expedite diagnosis and treatment, in turn leading to improved outcomes for patients.

Physiotherapists working to their full scope of practice are able to help alleviate the strain on our healthcare system.

🌸 Attention, everyone! 🌸

Are persistent headaches taking a toll on your daily life? There are many different types of headaches, but a common type is cervical headaches.

πŸ“Œ Cervical headaches, often linked to muscular tension and postural issues, can significantly impact your quality of life. Through a comprehensive approach, physiotherapy addresses the underlying factors contributing to these headaches:

πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ Improving Postural Awareness: Improving our Postural Awareness helps relieve strain on the neck and upper back, easing tension and reducing headache occurrence. πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈπŸ’«

πŸ’ͺ Strengthening Exercises: Specific exercises designed to strengthen weakened muscles in the neck and upper back improve their endurance and stability, reducing the likelihood of headaches. πŸ‹οΈβ€β™€οΈπŸ’₯

πŸ€Έβ€β™€οΈ Flexibility and Range of Motion: Techniques like manual therapy and stretching routines aim to enhance joint mobility, releasing tightness and promoting optimal movement patterns. πŸ”„

πŸ” Take control of your well-being and consider consulting a skilled physiotherapist for a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs! πŸ’™πŸ’†β€β™‚οΈ
