Introduction to Arthritis

Physiotherapy in Richmond for Arthritis

Welcome to the Cambie Physiotherapy and Health Clinic’s resource about arthritis.

Arthritis is one condition that can be incredibly debilitating to a sufferer of this disease.  Arthritis can cause pain, inflammation, stiffness, limitation of movement, and can keep you from fully enjoying your life.

However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

This section of our site is designed with you, the Arthritis sufferer in mind.  We want to be a resource for you, to provide you with the information and assistance you need in order to take control of your condition and let Arthritis know just who exactly is the boss.

There is no reason you shouldn't be able to do all of the activities that you love to do, whether it is dance, play a sport, lift your children or your grandchildren, or simply sit at the computer and update your Facebook status.  

Arthritis doesn't have to kill your fun and if you work with us, we won't let it.

 Dr. T Kang began treating me for hand pain that I have not been able to shake for about 5 years. I was finding my ability to hold a pen would fluctuate from 20 seconds to 3 minutes before I could not hold it anymore. For years, I thought it was Arthritis or Carpel Tunnel. I've had it treated before at other Accupuncture clinics but not with much success. After just one visit at Cambie Physio, I was able to hold a pen for longer durations (like, 20 minutes easily!). I liked that he assessed both my hands, not just the one I write with, and treated both of them using a variety of therapies. On the first session, he treated me with Needling, Ultrasound therapy, TENS with heat and a little bit of Accupressure. I have had 4 sessions with him, spread out over 3 weeks because of how long I've carried the injury for. I am always surprised how much he can fit in and how I see progress quite quickly after each session. Also, he is super gentle with the Needles- I hate accupuncture and needles but he is so gentle that I don't even notice them go in!! Highly recommend Dr. Kang and this great facility and staff.

 I have a car accident resulted in lots of knee pain and can't bend my knee joints. I came to cambie physio, luckily I met Hardeep Mann, she figured out I have arthritis and plantar femoral syndrome right away and start treating me right away, I recover quickly and able to move around freely without pain. I am a nure and I have experience working with trauma patients before. I can tell Hardeep is very knowledgeable and patience, she helps me to go through this difficult time. The office ladies are very helpful for set up appointments and arranging the right person to see me. I will highly recommend this place and see Hardeep
