Question 1

Does it actually work?

Accepted Answer

Yes! While telehealth may not replace hands-on treatment, research shows it can be just as effective as in-person sessions for many conditions, particularly those that benefit from exercise-based rehabilitation, education, and movement coaching.

Patients recovering from injuries, managing chronic pain, or looking to improve strength and mobility can achieve great results through guided virtual physiotherapy. With the right instruction, self-management techniques, and ongoing support, telehealth empowers individuals to take control of their recovery.
