Our History
Physiotherapist/Owner Chris Streib opened the first Talbot Trail Physiotherapy clinic in his hometown of Aylmer in 2002, with the goal of being able to provide quality health care to those communities who were underserviced, and residents needed to go to bigger cities for treatment.
With a mission to make Talbot Trail Physiotherapy, “Trusted for Successful Therapy in the Communities We Live”, Chris built on his patient centred physiotherapy philosophy, and expanded from Aylmer into St. Thomas, West Lorne, and Blenheim in order to provide physiotherapy to the residents of these communities.
Chris entered into a collaborative agreement with the St. Thomas Elgin General Hospital in the spring of 2008 to reopen the 22,000 sq. ft. rehabilitation centre. This location would become a Centre of Excellence, utilizing the most progressive treatment options and state-of-the-are equipment with a multi-disciplinary team of professionals onsite, to ensure the best possible outcomes for patient recovery.
In 2011, clinics were added in West Lorne and Blenheim. In 2018, a third location was added in St. Thomas at 1025 Talbot St. Then in the fall 2024, due to the growing needs of our community, a fourth St. Thomas location was opened at 1 Silver St. All clinical locations provide a variety of treatment options for the city and surrounding areas.
