Same-Day Physiotherapy Appointments in Mississauga
If you're in pain today, you shouldn't have to wait two weeks to be seen. At Apex Performance & Health in Mississauga, we offer same-day physiotherapy appointments for acute injuries, flare-ups, post-surgical concerns, and sports injuries — with a Registered Physiotherapist from your very first visit.
---What's Included in Your Same-Day Appointment
A same-day visit at Apex isn't a rushed, watered-down assessment. You get the same thorough intake as a scheduled appointment — we just prioritize getting you in faster.
Here's what's covered in your first visit:
We treat people, not paperwork. A same-day visit typically runs 45–60 minutes for a new patient.

Who Same-Day Physiotherapy Is For
This service is designed for people who are dealing with something that happened recently — or something that suddenly got worse.
You're a good fit if you have:- A sports injury from a game, run, or training session in the last 48–72 hours
- Sudden back or neck pain that's limiting your movement
- A workplace or motor vehicle accident injury (WSIB and MVA accepted)
- A flare-up of a chronic condition like a herniated disc or shoulder impingement
- Post-surgical pain or swelling that's changed unexpectedly
- A sprain, strain, or impact injury you're unsure about
- Have a suspected fracture, dislocation, or nerve emergency — go to the ER
- Need a specific specialist referral before physiotherapy begins

Why Choose Apex Performance & Health
1. You're Treated by a Registered Physiotherapist — Every Time
At some clinics, your first visit is with a physiotherapy assistant or a student. At Apex, every assessment is conducted by a Registered Physiotherapist. As one of the clinic's owners and a Registered Physiotherapist myself, I've seen how much that first-visit quality sets the tone for recovery. I graduated from the University of Salford in Manchester and have been practicing physiotherapy since 2014 — first in the UK, then Ottawa, then back in the Greater Toronto Area.
2. Sports Rehabilitation Depth You Won't Find Everywhere
I completed my Sports Physiotherapy Diploma with Sports Physiotherapy Canada and a Master's in Clinical Science from Western University focused on Sports and Exercise Medicine. When an athlete comes in with an acute hamstring strain or a shoulder labrum issue, the clinical reasoning behind their treatment plan goes deeper than a generic "rest and ice" approach. We offer full return-to-sport programming alongside acute injury care.
3. Multi-Disciplinary Under One Roof
Some injuries need more than one set of hands. At Apex, physiotherapy, chiropractic care, RMT massage therapy, kinesiology, TCM and acupuncture are all available in the same location. If your same-day assessment reveals that a chiropractic adjustment or acupuncture would accelerate your recovery, we can often coordinate that in the same visit or the same day — without sending you across the city.
4. Honest, Direct Communication
You'll get a straight answer about what's wrong and how long recovery realistically takes. No vague timelines, no pressure to book unnecessary follow-ups. If three sessions is the likely recovery window, we'll tell you three sessions — not book you for twelve. This is something I take personally from my training and practice background: patients make better decisions when they have real information.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How early do I need to call to get a same-day physiotherapy appointment? A: Most same-day slots are claimed before 11 a.m. Call or book online as early as possible — ideally before 10 a.m. — for the best chance of securing a spot that day. If same-day isn't available, we'll offer the next available slot, which is typically within 24–48 hours. Q: Will I actually receive treatment on my first visit, or just an assessment? A: Both. At Apex, your initial assessment and first treatment happen in the same appointment. You won't leave with just a pamphlet and a follow-up booking — hands-on treatment or a therapeutic exercise prescription begins at visit one. Q: Do you accept WSIB or motor vehicle accident (MVA) insurance for same-day visits? A: Yes. We accept WSIB and MVA insurance. Call ahead before your appointment so we can confirm your coverage details and make sure your paperwork is set up correctly from the start. Q: What should I wear or bring to a same-day physiotherapy appointment? A: Wear or bring comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows access to the injured area. For a knee, hip, or lower back issue, shorts are helpful. For a shoulder or neck issue, a loose t-shirt works well. Bring your health card, insurance information, and any imaging (X-rays, MRI reports) you already have. Q: Can I book same-day for an old injury that's suddenly gotten worse? A: Absolutely. Flare-ups of chronic conditions — disc herniations, tendinopathies, shoulder impingements, and similar issues — are among the most common reasons people call for same-day access. You don't need a new injury to qualify. Q: Do you offer same-day appointments for chiropractic or RMT massage as well? A: Yes. Same-day availability exists across multiple services at Apex, including chiropractic care and registered massage therapy, subject to therapist availability. Call the clinic to confirm which services have same-day openings on a given day.Frequently Asked Questions
