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 have to pay for physiotherapy in BC?

    Yes. Physiotherapy in British Columbia is primarily a privately paid service, and the most common source of payment is through any extended benefits you might have through your work. If you do not have extended benefits you pay for the services directly out of pocket.

    There is funding for specific groups like RCMP members, Veterans, and those injured in car or workplace accidents. Some individuals qualify for a reduced rate, partially funded by the government, but you will need to provide your birthdate and BC Services Card (CareCard) number for us to check on this.

  • What should I wear to my appointment?

    Wear something that provides us with easy access to the part of your body that you want help with. Your safest bet is to bring a loose pair of shorts (and ladies should bring a tank-top that shows off the shoulder blade area), no matter what you are being seen for. We have spare shorts and T-shirts for people who forget, but we can’t guarantee that you will like the colour!

  • Do I have to keep coming to physiotherapy forever?

    Absolutely not! Our goal is to understand your goals, figure out everything that might be contributing to your injury, educate you and treat you appropriately, and then discharge you from care. You are certainly always allowed to come back to us, but our ultimate goal is to give you the tools to self-manage if at all possible.

  • Is acupuncture effective?

    Yes. Research has shown acupuncture’s effectiveness in treating sports injuries, pain management, migraines, arthritis and other conditions.

  • What do physiotherapists do?

    Think of Physiotherapists as project managers for recovering from injuries. A good physio doesn’t just treat you or prescribe exercises but will understand and manage all aspects of your recovery. Physiotherapists combine in-depth knowledge of how the body works with specialized hands-on clinical skills to assess, diagnose and treat symptoms of illness, injury or disability.

  • How much does physiotherapy cost?

    Our rates vary depending on which treatment you require. Please see our Rates page for full details.
