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 areas does Pinpoint Physiotherapy service?

    Our convenient downtown Nanaimo location (161 Selby Street) allows us to service clients from all across Vancouver Island, the Lower Mainland, and the surrounding Gulf Islands. Many of our clients reside in Nanaimo (or surrounding regions such as Cedar, Lantzville, and Nanoose Bay), though we often see clients travel from Duncan, Parksville, Courtenay, Campbell River, and even Gabriola Island and Protection Island for our services.

    With our Telehealth Virtual Physiotherapy service, we can also remotely work with clients across British Columbia.

  • What is the goal of physiotherapy?

    A physiotherapist’s goal is to restore, maintain and maximize your strength, function, movement and overall well-being. We understand that everyone has different objectives. The demands on your body differ greatly depending on whether you work a heavy job, or have a baby, or run marathons, or all three! We will help you set and achieve appropriate end-points based on your injury and interests.

  • What if I have MSP Supplementary Benefits?

    Clients qualifying for MSP Supplementary Benefits will receive $50.00 off the total cost of any assessment or treatment.

    Remember to bring your Care Card to your appointment!

  • Is acupuncture effective?

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

  • How much does physiotherapy cost?

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

  • How do physiotherapists achieve their goal?

    Physiotherapists prescribe personalized therapeutic exercises, and provide essential education about the body, what keeps it from moving well, how to restore mobility and independence, and how to avoid or prevent bodily harm
