We want to confirm that it is safe to get physiotherapy during the COVID-19 pandemic. As per Kristen Thometz’s article in Chicago’s PBS station WTTW. When visiting The Health First Group it is important to note we follow very strict protocols when it comes to keeping safe and sanitization. For example, when our physiotherapists finish with a client, they follow our sanitization process before accepting a new client into their therapy room.
We understand the fear of possibly contracting COVID-19 during these unfortunate times. However, you should rest assured knowing The Health First Group has a strict sanitization policy in place. We have time gaps between each appointment in order to carefully and thoroughly sanitize our rooms before the next patient can come in. In our reception area, there is also safe distancing practices in place for the safety of everybody.
During the pandemic, many haven’t been able to get their routine physical activity. Unfortunately, many people have also delayed their care and are continuing to do so. We’d highly recommend coming in to see a physiotherapist in Mississauga to help you regain your strength and range of motion. If you’re still not comfortable you can email in to request a virtual appointment or a home visit: https://www.thehealthfirstgroup.com/mississauga-telehealth/
