Fascial Manipulation®
Fascial Manipulation® is an effective soft tissue manual therapy method generally used for myofascial pain and dysfunction, locomotor problems and internal dysfunctions. Fascial Manipulation® Specialists pay attention to the detailed information about the patient’s medical history, lifestyle, previous injuries/traumas, surgeries, fractures, internal dysfunctions etc. to identify and address the root cause of pain and dysfunction. Localized or global compensations can cause an altered perception of body position/movement, motor coordination and distribution of load on myofascial structures and joints, and may increase the risk of injury, pain, and further dysfunctions. The individualized precision of this method helps to restore the biomechanics of the fascial system, and to provide realistic long-lasting results and even to prevent further injuries.
At Village Physiotherapy, we have a specialist trained in Fascial Manipulation®, that can effectively treat and manage a variety of conditions that stem from or affect the fascial system. This approach not only addresses symptoms but also targets the underlying causes of discomfort and dysfunction, offering patients a pathway to improved health and mobility.

Concussion rehabilitation is a critical aspect of recovery for individuals who have suffered a concussion, a type of traumatic brain injury typically caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head. These injuries can disrupt the normal functioning of the brain and require specialized care to ensure a safe and effective return to daily activities.
At Village Physiotherapy, our concussion management begins with a comprehensive assessment to determine the impact and severity of the injury, followed by the development of a personalized treatment plan. This plan may include education on recovery stages, manual therapy, and vestibular exercises to address physical symptoms like headaches and dizziness, as well as cognitive rehabilitation to aid with mental processes. We implement graduated return-to-activity programs that are closely monitored and adjusted based on the patient’s recovery progress. Throughout the process, we collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to ensure all aspects of the patient’s health are considered, providing a holistic approach to recovery.
Concussion rehabilitation at Village Physiotherapy focuses on minimizing concussion symptoms and promoting a safe and timely return to daily activities. Our evidence-based approach and specialized care plans are designed to support recovery and help patients regain their quality of life after a concussion.
