Achieving Your Health Goals with Physiotherapy Care

At Medcare Physiotherapy Centre, physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Deval frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:

  • Struggling with the frustration of recovering from a concussion and dealing with lingering symptoms like dizziness or headaches? Deval develops individualized physiotherapy programs specifically aimed at achieving feeling more like their 'old self' before their injury or condition began. This is key to helping you get back to doing playing a full game of recreational hockey with their friends with confidence and significantly reduced discomfort.
  • Many individuals seek help from Deval, their physiotherapist, when clicking, popping, or pain in my jaw (TMJ issues) when I eat or talk starts impacting daily life. Through a personalized physiotherapy plan, they often achieve feeling more resilient and less vulnerable to minor strains or injuries, empowering them to joyfully return to activities like managing their personal care routines independently.
  • Living with dealing with ongoing pain and stiffness after a car accident, like whiplash doesn't have to be your norm. Deval applies expert physiotherapy knowledge to work towards the ability to sit for longer periods (e.g., at a desk, in a car) without significant discomfort, so you can get back to the simple pleasure of attending concerts or theatre shows and sitting comfortably throughout.
  • With Deval's help, managing a 'frozen shoulder' feeling, where my shoulder feels completely stuck to achieve waking up feeling more refreshed with considerably less pain and stiffness becomes a clear journey, allowing patients to confidently re-engage with life and activities like competing effectively in their curling league games.

Your personalized physiotherapy plan, developed with Deval, will be designed to help you reach your specific functional and wellness objectives.

Frequently Asked Questions about Physiotherapy in North York

Approximately how many physiotherapy sessions will I need?
The number of physiotherapy sessions required varies greatly from person to person. It depends on several factors, including the nature and severity of your condition, how long you've had the issue (acute vs. chronic), your individual treatment goals, your body's unique response to therapy, and how consistently you are able to follow your prescribed home exercise program and self-management advice. Your Physiotherapist will discuss a proposed treatment frequency and estimated duration after your initial assessment and will continually re-evaluate your progress with you.
Can physiotherapy help prevent injuries or recurring pain?
Definitely. A key aspect of physiotherapy is not just treating current problems but also preventing future ones. A Physiotherapist can assess your movement, identify potential weaknesses or imbalances that could lead to injury, and provide you with a personalized program of exercises and strategies. This proactive approach is beneficial for athletes, individuals with physically demanding jobs, or anyone looking to maintain long-term musculoskeletal health and avoid recurring pain.
Is physiotherapy covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?
OHIP generally does NOT cover physiotherapy services in private outpatient clinics for most of the population. Publicly funded physiotherapy is available in specific situations (e.g., post-hospitalization for certain conditions, for children/youth, seniors, or through Community Physiotherapy Clinics/Family Health Teams), but eligibility criteria are strict and there may be waitlists. It is strongly advised to check your private insurance for private clinic coverage.
I have private health insurance. How does that work with physiotherapy payments?
Many private health insurance plans offer full or partial coverage for registered physiotherapy services. We recommend you contact your insurance provider directly before your first appointment to understand the specifics of your plan. Key things to check are: your annual maximum for physiotherapy, any per-visit limits or co-payments, whether a doctor's referral is required for reimbursement, and if your plan allows for direct billing by the clinic. If Medcare Physiotherapy Centre offers direct billing and your plan allows it, we can often bill your insurer directly for the covered portion. You would then be responsible for any co-payment or remaining balance not covered by your plan at the time of service. Please bring your insurance card and all necessary policy details to your first appointment. If direct billing is not possible, we will provide you with an official receipt that you can submit to your insurer.
Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Physiotherapist in ON?
Patients in ON can typically see a Physiotherapist directly without a physician's referral (direct access). However, some private/extended health insurance plans require a referral for reimbursement. Check your insurance policy before your first appointment.
What types of conditions do Physiotherapists at Medcare Physiotherapy Centre treat?
Our Physiotherapists treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. This includes, but is not limited to, back and neck pain, joint problems (arthritis or post-surgical recovery), and sports injuries. We also offer specialized services in orthopedic and musculoskeletal physiotherapy. Treatments often involve Core Stability & Strengthening Training, Soft Tissue Mobilization & Release Techniques, and patient education.
Is physiotherapy treatment supposed to be painful?
While some techniques might feel uncomfortable or cause temporary soreness, it should not be excessively painful. Your Physiotherapist will discuss what to expect and adjust techniques to ensure your comfort.
