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

  • What do I need to use telehealth physiotherapy?

    Telehealth (aka virtual physiotherapy) requires that you have the following:

    • A relatively fast internet connection
    • A computer, tablet, or smartphone equipped with a camera, speakers, and a microphone

    To ensure your device is compatible with our telehealth system, please visit the system requirements page from our service provider Physitrack.

  • How much does physiotherapy cost?

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

  • Do you offer direct billing for telehealth treatments?

    Yes. We direct bill to Canada Life (Great West Life), Sunlife, Manulife, Medavie Blue Cross, Pacific Blue Cross, Green Shield Canada, and WorkSafe BC for telehealth treatments.

  • 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!

  • Is acupuncture painful?

    No, it does not hurt. Patients often report that the acupuncture treatment itself is relaxing.

    The needles used in acupuncture are much thinner than most people have experienced, with a diameter of a strand of hair!

  • Is acupuncture safe?

    Yes, the acupuncture needles used for your treatment are single use , sterile needles. Our therapists are trained and certified by Acupuncture Canada or an equivalent organization.

    PRP for Rotator Cuff: Hype or Real Healing Power?

    Rotator cuff injuries are one of the most common causes of shoulder pain and disability. Whether from repetitive overhead activity, age-related wear or an acute injury, damage to the rotator cuff tendons can make everyday tasks — reaching, lifting, even sleeping — painful and frustrating. While physical therapy remains the foundation of treatment, many patients reach a point where they need something more. That's where platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy comes in.
