Physical therapy

We love the pelvis and we love seeing you get back to what you love to do.

At Indigo Physiotherapy, our pelvic physical therapy team will provide ongoing collaboration with our client's entire care team of choice, including medical doctors, wellness and alternative care providers. Our emphasis is on whole-body, therapeutic approaches in a calming, one-on-one private room for treatments, and large, open studio space for running evaluations, exercise, and a host of classes and support groups to elevate health for all genders, fertility care, prenatal care and pelvic health, and postpartum pelvic health.
