Yonge & Wellington | Rachel Dsouza, PT
Why should patients choose you as their provider instead of others in the area?
I strive to provide individualised, patient-centred and evidence-based treatment programs. I believe in making your goals my goals. With my experience in providing patient care with a wide range of skills and previous experience playing sports which include basketball and badminton among others and having past injuries myself, I’m able to understand patients’ needs better and can help get you back to doing what you love just like I did. I have experience in post-surgical and sports injury rehabilitation of shoulder, knee and ankle which I’m passionate about.
What are the top 3 treatments that you specialize in?
I specialise in a variety of treatments some of which include various manual therapy techniques such as joint mobilisation and myofascial release in combination with exercise prescription. I am consistently committed to advancing my knowledge to increase quality of patient care.
What are you proud of in your practice?
I am proud of the positive impact I have had on patients helping them achieve their rehabilitation goals and manage their pain throughout their rehabilitation. I have an excellent track record of identifying the problem and designing effective physiotherapy treatment plans. Nothing is more rewarding to me than helping patients get back to doing what they love and achieve their functional goals.
Which cases do you enjoy treating? Why?
I enjoy treating all cases whether it is a muscle injury, ligament injury, bone/joint or even nerve injury/condition. I have always been fascinated by the human body and its ability to heal itself when treated right. I’m excited to work with you to help you move better and live pain-free.
