Early assessment usually means a shorter course of treatment. If you are unsure which service you need, call the clinic and we will point you to the right practitioner.
At Eastgate Physiotherapy we combine hands-on techniques, guided exercise and education so that every Motor Vehicle Accident Physiotherapy plan is built around your goals. Treatment starts on your first visit, and progress is measured at every appointment so you always know where you stand.
Your first visit is a detailed evaluation of your history, movement and the demands of your work and sport. We explain what we find in plain language and agree a plan together.
Manual therapy, joint mobilisation and soft-tissue techniques to reduce pain and restore movement, chosen for your specific findings.
A progressive program matched to your stage of recovery, taught in the clinic and given to you to continue at home.
Dry needling, taping and other modalities are added when they will speed your progress, never as a substitute for active care.
Understanding your condition, what aggravates it and how to pace activity is part of every plan.
Milestones and testing guide a safe, gradual return so you can be confident the improvement will last.
Progress is re-measured at each visit and your plan adjusted; we coordinate with your physician or insurer when needed.
Our goal at Eastgate Physiotherapy is to support each patient’s confident recovery through evidence-based Motor Vehicle Accident Physiotherapy. Our registered practitioners take time to understand your situation, communicate clearly, and build a plan you can actually follow. With more than 35 years in Sherwood Park, we know the community and the demands of the work and sport our patients return to.
A structured Motor Vehicle Accident Physiotherapy program offers physical, functional and practical benefits: reduced pain, restored movement and strength, a faster and safer return to normal activity, and a lower chance of the problem coming back. Just as important, you understand what happened and how to manage it yourself.
To make sure you get the care you need without financial strain, Eastgate Physiotherapy works with all major insurers, WCB Alberta and motor vehicle accident claims. In most cases there is no upfront cost for motor vehicle accident physiotherapy care.

Most extended health plans cover physiotherapy, massage and acupuncture; we direct-bill Alberta Blue Cross, Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life, GreenShield and more.

If your injury happened at work, WCB Alberta typically covers assessment, treatment and reporting at no cost to you; we complete the forms.

After a car accident, Section B benefits cover treatment regardless of fault with no upfront cost; we submit the AB-1 and treatment plan.

No coverage? Transparent self-pay fees with itemised receipts for tax or later submission.
Our front desk can check your coverage before your first visit, submit claims on your behalf and coordinate benefits between two plans. See our funding and direct billing pages for details.
Every recovery is different. Our physiotherapists set clear goals with you at the first visit, measure progress at each appointment and adjust the plan as you improve.

Satish has helped me with numerous issues including a needle-stick injury, a back issue and sciatica. He is an expert in his field who is willing to share his knowledge. His treatments are effective, safe and he has been able to restore my movement every time I have been under his care. I highly recommend Satish for your physiotherapy needs.

I had an excellent experience at East Gate Physiotherapy in Sherwood Park. Satish was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely caring. He took the time to understand the source of my intense pain and explained everything clearly while providing effective, targeted treatment. I noticed meaningful pain relief and improvement much faster than I expected. I truly felt listened to and supported throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Satish and the team at East Gate Physiotherapy to anyone dealing with pain or injury.

I’m writing this review as the daughter of a patient, and I can’t say enough good things about Satish at East Gate Physiotherapy in Sherwood Park. My mom had been in severe pain for weeks and wasn’t able to sleep or even walk properly. Satish took so much time with her, showed incredible patience and compassion, and treated her with acupuncture that brought real relief. Seeing my mom finally get some rest and regain mobility was such a relief for our family. We’re incredibly grateful for the care, knowledge, and genuine kindness he showed. I would highly recommend Satish to anyone looking for thoughtful, effective treatment. He is not extremely thorough, knowledgeable and caring.
