FREQUENTLY ASKED
Willingdon Heights & the Lougheed studio.
Is there a Launch Rehab studio in Willingdon Heights?
There is no studio inside the neighbourhood. The nearest is Launch Rehab Lougheed, about a 10-minute trip south by SkyTrain (Gilmore to Lougheed Town Centre, three stops on the Millennium Line) or a short drive. The Lougheed studio opened in 2025 and offers physiotherapy, registered massage therapy, acupuncture and IMS, clinical Pilates, and more.
How do I get to the Lougheed studio from Willingdon Heights?
Take the Millennium Line from Gilmore Station east to Lougheed Town Centre (three stops). The studio is a short walk from there, at 30-3778 Grande Promenade, inside the City of Lougheed development. The R5 RapidBus along Hastings also connects to other SkyTrain stations if Gilmore does not suit your direction.
Does the Lougheed studio offer pelvic floor physiotherapy?
Yes. Launch Rehab Lougheed is one of the studios with pelvic floor physiotherapy on-site, which is useful for postpartum recovery, urinary incontinence, or pelvic pain. Sessions are one-on-one with a physiotherapist trained in internal and external pelvic assessment.
Can I get an evening appointment without a long commute?
Yes. The Lougheed studio is open until 8pm Monday through Friday and until 5pm on weekends. The three-stop Millennium Line connection from Gilmore makes a 7pm appointment practical from Willingdon Heights. Evening slots book out several days in advance, so booking online early helps.
What services are available at the Lougheed studio?
Launch Rehab Lougheed offers physiotherapy, registered massage therapy, acupuncture and IMS, clinical Pilates, pelvic floor physiotherapy, running assessment, golf assessment, and shockwave therapy. It is the flagship studio, with a full strength floor including a squat rack, treadmill, and reformer Pilates machine.
Which insurance plans do you direct-bill?
The studio direct-bills ICBC and WorkSafeBC claims and most major extended health insurers, including Pacific Blue Cross, Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life, and Green Shield. MSP supplementary benefits apply for patients on premium assistance. When a plan cannot be billed directly, we provide an itemized receipt to submit for reimbursement.
What happens at a first physiotherapy visit at Lougheed?
The first session is 60 minutes. The clinician takes your history, runs a focused assessment, explains the findings, and starts treatment the same day rather than booking a separate assessment-only visit. You leave with a plan covering expected session count and what your coverage applies toward.
Is there parking at the Lougheed studio?
Yes. The mall lot beside the City of Lougheed offers free parking for up to 4 hours, which covers any single appointment. There is also paid underground parking by PriceSmart Foods for longer visits.
