Our story
1996
A story that lasts
The Clinique de réadaptation physique Roussillon were created in 1996. The first clinic located in St-Constant opened its doors on September 15, 1996. Two years later, in 1998, followed the opening of a second clinic in La Prairie. In 2001, the business expended and offered a third point of service to the Roussillon population, this time in Sainte-Catherine.
2002
The owners
In 2002, Ms. Sophie Thauvette, Katy Lepage and Mélanie Gauthier became co-owners of the Clinique de réadaptation physique Roussillon.
In fact, the clinics were previously managed by another group who teamed up with Mrs. Thauvette, physiotherapist, in 1997 and Mrs. Gauthier, occupational therapist, in 2001.
Ms. Lepage was a key employee for the company, involved at the administrative level. It is therefore in 2002, a pivotal year for the clinics, that the three current owners united to acquire the company and gave themselves the mandate to continue to serve the population of Roussillon in terms of rehabilitation services. Professionalism and a warm atmosphere will become their watchwords in the management of their business.
Expansion of services
Les Cliniques de réadaptation physique Roussillon n’ont cessé de se développer.
En plus des services offerts depuis les débuts, tels que la physiothérapie, l’ergothérapie, la massothérapie, l’acupuncture et l’ostéopathie, elles ont ajouté une panoplie d’approches spécialisées au fil des ans. Parmi ces services, on retrouve la
rééducation périnéale, le traitement de la mâchoire, la rééducation vestibulaire, l’ergothérapie en santé mentale, et bien plus.
De nouveaux services ont également été intégrés : kinésiologie, audiologie, confection d’orthèses et de prothèses afin d’offrir des soins de réadaptation complets à la population environnante.
The Clinique de Réadaptation Physique Roussillon has continuously expanded its services. In addition to the initial offerings, such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, massage therapy, acupuncture, and osteopathy, they have added a wide range of specialized approaches over the years. Among these services are pelvic floor rehabilitation, jaw treatment, vestibular rehabilitation, mental health occupational therapy, and more. New services have also been integrated: kinesiology, audiology, and the creation of orthotics and prosthetics, aiming to provide comprehensive rehabilitation care to the surrounding community.
2007
Strategic development
In 2007, the owners recognized the economic development potential offered by the completion of Highway 30 and decided to open a fourth clinic in Candiac, located near major roads. This new location became the company’s headquarters and houses the administrative offices.
With a team of nearly forty employees and independent contractors, the clinics have been able to meet the growing needs of clients, both in terms of services and availability.
2012
Recognition and expansion
In 2012, the women leaders will be rewarded with the award of the Homage to Women’s Achievement Award presented by CLD Roussillon. They will also be finalists in the Prix Coup de cœur of the members at the Hall of Fame of the Royal Roussillon Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
The year 2016 will also be a milestone for the company that won the Professional and Health and Wellness Award at the 6th Hall of Fame of the Royal Roussillon Chamber of Commerce and Industry. In addition, a new service center opens in Saint-Constant to better serve the residents of this municipality who witnessed the birth of the company 20 years ago.
2018
The Châteauguay clinic
Finally, in 2018, the company inaugurates a 6th clinic, this time in Châteauguay. Therefore, the leaders will please their customers, residing in this municipality, who were moving to St-Constant to receive their treatments. In addition, this point of service will allow new clients in this region to benefit from the expertise of the clinics near their homes. It should be added that this new project, taking place in the building where the Marché Laberge was formerly located in the Old Châteauguay sector, is particularly significant to Sophie Thauvette, physiotherapist and co-owner, who is a native and resident of Châteauguay.
