Markham Physiotherapy: In Home Service

Experiencing pain from a recent injury, surgical procedure, chronic condition or stroke? There are many options for physiotherapy near you in Markham worth considering. From private clinics, inpatient hospital programs at Markham Stouffville Hospital, and innovative alternatives like Therapia, each has their pros and cons.

Markham has over 40 physiotherapy clinics near you, with over 250 licensed physiotherapists listed on the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario (although some rotate across different locations). Of those 173 are accepting new patients. The majority self-label as general practitioners or orthopaedic (musculoskeletal, joints, ligaments) specialists, followed by geriatric and neurology specialists.

Traditional clinics in Markham charge $90-$125 per hour sessions and patients here typically co-pay using private healthcare insurance plans from employers. This is likely the most popular physiotherapy option for Markham residents but it does come with a few drawbacks. The first is finding the right physiotherapist for your condition. While you could spend hours browsing the internet for relevant information on someone who has worked on a similar condition via keywords and labels, these are still imperfect signals when trying to pinpoint a good match for your needs. The second issue is the back-and-forth commute per treatment session. If you or your loved one is experiencing pain, have difficulty moving around, or simply too busy to make constant trips outside, you may prefer having a physiotherapist come to you (all else equal).

Therapia was started to solve the drawbacks of visiting clinics. We were started by a team of health professionals (surgeon, physician, physiotherapists) to bring quality healthcare into the homes of residents in communities like Markham. We have developed a trusted network of top physiotherapists who have made themselves available to do home visits on Therapia’s platform. Each therapist is hand-picked for their experience, bedside manners and proximity to serving their patient community. We work with both patients and therapists to find the right match and guide patients through our process from beginning to end. Our managed service offers a premium treatment experience without exorbitant costs. In fact, our 45 minute sessions with a licensed physiotherapist is priced the same as going to a clinic, starting at $99 on weekdays.
