The Modern Standard of MVA Recovery

Traditional rehab often stops at pain management. At Coquitlam Physio & Health, we believe that is only the beginning. Whether you were in a minor fender-bender or a significant collision, the hidden impact on your soft tissues, vestibular system, and joint mechanics can be profound.

Why “Wait and See” is a Risky Strategy

Soft tissue injuries such as whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) often have a delayed onset. If left untreated, inflammatory responses can lead to chronic scar tissue and restricted mobility. Our clinical leads utilize a high-performance framework to hunt for the root cause of dysfunction — ensuring you don’t just feel better, but move better.

“Rehabilitation doesn’t end when the pain stops. It ends when the body is stronger than it was before the injury.”

Jayten Patel, MPT, Clinical Director

The High-Performance Roadmap: From Impact to Independence

We treat every ICBC patient with the same obsessive attention to detail we give to professional athletes. Our roadmap is divided into three critical phases:

Phase 01

The Acute Reset

Reducing inflammation and restoring basic range of motion using Manual Therapy and IMS/Dry Needling.

Phase 02

The Functional Transition

Bridging the gap between the treatment table and real-world movement through Kinesiology-led active rehabilitation.

Phase 03

Long-Term Resilience

Utilizing PNOE Metabolic Testing and strength conditioning to bulletproof your body against future injury.

We hunt for the root cause of dysfunction. By isolating specific movement patterns and applying evidence-based loading, we turn your recovery into a performance advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my accident was more than 12 weeks ago?

If you are past the initial 12-week window, we can still secure funding for you. Our team works directly with your ICBC adjuster to request extensions based on clinical necessity.

Do I need to see my family doctor first?

No. You can book your assessment immediately. Our practitioners are primary care providers and will handle the initial reporting required by ICBC to keep your claim active.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Please have your ICBC Claim Number, the Date of Accident, and your PHN (Personal Health Number) ready. If you have any imaging results or hospital discharge papers, bring those as well.
