New Location Update!
We are pleased to announce we have moved to 1440 Broadway Avenue, Regina, SK S4P 1E2.
Our Company
At Scott Anderson & Associates Physiotherapy in Regina, Sask., we build our effective approach to care on the philosophy that exercise is medicine.
We have a distinguished reputation for excellence in the treatment and rehabilitation of sports injuries and our client roster includes professional and Olympic athletes in addition to recreational sports enthusiasts.
We also have a wide range of experience in treating clients who have sustained workplace injuries and motor vehicle accident injuries.
In each case, we start with an hour-long evaluation to determine the source of pain and to understand the long-term goals of our clients beyond the obvious challenge of easing the pain and starting the healing process.
We prescribe a series of exercises to be done in addition to physiotherapy so that you can be a partner in your own recovery. Some of these exercises can be done at our on-site gym and others can be done daily at home between visits to our facility.
We are a direct access clinic, so you can book an appointment with us with or without a referral from your doctor or chiropractor.
