We make a point of providing exceptional healthcare

Pinpoint Physiotherapy & Health has been helping Nanaimo residents recover and rehabilitate since 2014.

Multidisciplinary Care

Pinpoint is a Nanaimo physiotherapy-focused clinic located in the beautiful downtown core, staffed by a team of professionals who take the time to find the true root of your problem.

A physician’s referral is not required to access the physiotherapy and naturopathic services offered at Pinpoint.

Careful approach

We take care to restore, maintain, and maximize your overall health and well-being.

We focus on building strength, function, and movement through the rehabilitation of orthopaedic conditions, including many issues of the muscles, nerves, and bones.

Our team is skilled in many therapeutic techniques to assist and accelerate your recovery in a way that’s best for you.

Expert team

Our therapists have a broad spectrum of experience that our entire team draws upon.

The Physios at Pinpoint have all worked in the hospital setting with medical and orthopaedic patients, and are skilled at progressing you at an appropriate pace through your recovery.

Our team members continue to expand and hone their skills, and are committed to integrating current research with expertise, client values, and available resources.

Generous appointments

We believe that effective therapy is built upon a combination of expertise, care, and time.

Our generous appointment slots give you one-on-one time to voice to your concerns, check your exercises, and reassess your progress.

This approach allows your therapist to effectively and quickly progress you to the point where you no longer need our services.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What do physiotherapists do?

    Think of Physiotherapists as project managers for recovering from injuries. A good physio doesn’t just treat you or prescribe exercises but will understand and manage all aspects of your recovery. Physiotherapists combine in-depth knowledge of how the body works with specialized hands-on clinical skills to assess, diagnose and treat symptoms of illness, injury or disability.

  • What happens during my initial naturopathic medicine appointment?

    An initial appointment with your Naturopathic Doctor (ND) will consist of a review of your chief concern, as well as an overview of your current and previous medical history. Physical exams and tests will be ordered as deemed necessary.

  • Can anyone call themselves a Naturopathic Doctor?

    No. In British Columbia, the term Naturopathic Doctor is a regulated title. In order for someone to state that they are a Naturopathic Doctor or Naturopathic Physician in BC they must:

    • Have a minimum of 3 years of pre-medical schooling with appropriate prerequisites
    • Complete a 4-year doctorate degree, including a 1-year clinical residency, and attain a Doctor of Naturopathy
    • Successfully complete two national board examinations (NPLEX), as well as provincial board examinations
    • Stay up to date with medical standards through Continued Education requirements

  • What should I wear to my appointment?

    Wear something that provides us with easy access to the part of your body that you want help with. Your safest bet is to bring a loose pair of shorts (and ladies should bring a tank-top that shows off the shoulder blade area), no matter what you are being seen for. We have spare shorts and T-shirts for people who forget, but we can’t guarantee that you will like the colour!

  • Can a Naturopathic Doctor provide medical prescriptions?

    Yes! Prescribing pharmaceutical medications is within the scope of Naturopathic Doctors in BC.

  • Are physiotherapy treatments taxable?

    No, physiotherapy services in BC are not subject to GST or PST.
