• Herniated Disc / Sciatica / Radiculopathy: Back or neck pain that often radiates into an arm or leg, potentially with numbness, tingling, weakness, or burning sensations, due to a spinal disc problem (herniation, protrusion, or bulge) compressing or irritating a nearby nerve root (radiculopathy). Sciatica specifically refers to radicular pain down the leg.

Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Physiothérapeute in QC?

In Québec, patients can typically access a Physiothérapeute directly without the need for a physician's referral, a process known as direct access. However, while a referral is not legally required to see a Physiothérapeute, some private or extended health insurance plans may require one for reimbursement purposes. It is advisable to verify the specific requirements of your insurance policy before your first appointment.

How long do physiotherapy appointments typically last?

Your first physiotherapy appointment, which includes a detailed assessment and the development of your initial treatment plan, usually takes about 60 minutes. Follow-up sessions are generally scheduled for 30 to 45 minutes. The duration of each session may vary depending on your needs and treatment plan.

What is the difference between a Physiotherapist (Physiothérapeute) and a Physiotherapy Technologist (Technologue en physiothérapie) in Quebec?

A Physiothérapeute in Quebec has completed a master's degree in physiotherapy, granting them the autonomy to assess, diagnose, and develop treatment plans. They can perform advanced procedures if qualified. A Technologue en physiothérapie holds a college diploma (DEC) and primarily assists physiotherapists by implementing treatment plans, helping patients with exercises, and applying modalities under supervision.

Is physiotherapy covered by the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

Generally, physiotherapy services in private clinics are not directly covered by RAMQ. Patients usually pay out-of-pocket or use private insurance. Some coverage may be available through public health programs for specific populations or within hospitals and CLSCs under certain criteria. It is recommended to check with RAMQ and your private insurer regarding coverage details.

What types of conditions do Physiothérapeutes at NXT Generation Physio HOMA treat?
