I went to 2 different ones for a back/leg injury and didn't like either of them.

Went with Kristi Scott at Guisachan Physiotherapy and was very happy. Helped a lot.

I hear Eric Wong at Wave Physiotherapy is very good.
We might be more helpful if you could tell us what type of treatment you are seeking.

I was surprised to find a Kelowna physiotherapist that actually came to my house! Rob Ewanuk of New Leaf Physio provides mobile physiotherapy. He arrives with all the equipment required. The day he arrived at my house to treat my lower back, I happened to have the worst headache ever. After the physio the headache was gone. So try it out! removed link.Have the physiotherapist come to you. :D

I am looking for the best physio therapist! Preferably one that knows about and works with pelvic floor dysfunction. I am desparate. Been suffering for 8 months now and have had so many tests done and still nobody knows why I have this terrible pressure on my tailbone area. I am beside myself trying to get help for this. The one my dr referred me to does not accept BC Medicare, some private new age guro surrounded by zen gardens for her patients. Not into this, and I can't afford $120.00 a visit. So I do need one that accepts bc medical, where in my past experiences my share only comes to $25.00 a visit. Any ideas???
The Westside would be a real plus but am willing to go to Kelowna certainly!

Actually I have seen her for myofacial pain, but she doesn't do massages. Have two different health issues, one of them requires massages. Didn't really want to have to go to a different therapist for each condition. I thought about calling her to see if she deals with pelvic floor, but then would have to pay an additional therapist for a massage.
