Karim S. Meghji provides physiotherapy in South and Northwest Calgary, with services including Gunn IMS, functional dry needling, medical acupuncture, manual therapy, and exercise-based rehabilitation. His approach brings together assessment, treatment, and patient education to help people understand their symptoms and work towards meaningful functional goals. For patients whose recovery has stalled, appointments can include a review of previous care and a discussion of appropriate next steps.
When Your Recovery Has Stalled
If symptoms persist or you are unsure about your next step, a further physiotherapy assessment can help review your current situation. Karim considers your history, previous treatment, available reports, and functional goals before discussing options.
These may include changes to your rehabilitation plan, coordination with your existing healthcare providers, or referral for further assessment. Bring relevant reports and your current exercise programme to help inform the discussion.
