Community Driven – Davidson Physiotherapy Provides Patient Care to Riverview
When it comes to your health and well-being, having a trusted partner by your side can make all the difference. Davidson Physiotherapy on Pinewood Road embodies this sentiment. Mark Davidson and his team are dedicated to not only providing top-notch physiotherapy care, but also being an integral part of the community that they serve.
Mark and his wife Alison were living in Halifax, NS, when he began deliberating on opening his own business.
“It was important to us that we were in an area where we were not just a business, but part of a community,” says Mark. “With my wife and I both having grown up in Riverview, it was the obvious choice for us to move back home. As an active community with so many recreation opportunities, we knew we would be able to assist residents with getting back to the activities they enjoy most.”
Now, 22 years later, Davidson Physiotherapy is a reliable and growing practice. What started as a one-man operation, the clinic now employs four physiotherapists, two massage therapists, and three support staff. This year they also merged with Tidewater Physiotherapy, bringing its staff and clientele on board to their location.
Davidson Physiotherapy is a sponsor for the popular Riverview Kegs & Legs run, the Atlantic Wellness Monster Trot, and Legs for Literacy, as well as local sports organizations and teams. They have a bursary for RHS grads, and Mark serves on the Campaign Committee for the Riverview Recreation Complex. Several staff volunteer their time coaching various sports teams as well. Under the motto “Patient Focused – Community Driven,” Davidson Physiotherapy strives to use best practice methods, current research, manual techniques, as well as progressive exercises to empower their clients to help resolve their pain.
“We believe in spending a significant amount of time with our clients to help better understand them through a thoughtful, honest dialogue,” says Mark. “We then support and guide them to recovery with research-based current concepts, appropriate manual therapy, and prescriptive progressive exercises with their goals in mind.”
In a business where you are treating clients who are often in pain, their team strives to find the balance between keeping the atmosphere light while providing the positive support and respect needed when dealing with complex issues.
As a community-focused practice, Davidson Physiotherapy has developed a common sense of connection to people and place. Be sure to follow them on Facebook and Instagram where they often share helpful tips for common pain points and injury prevention. Whether you’re a long-time resident or new to the greater Moncton area, Davidson Physiotherapy is a partner you can trust on your journey to wellness.
