Is chiropractic care covered by Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

In Ontario, OHIP generally does NOT cover chiropractic services provided in private clinics for most of the population. There may be very limited exceptions through specific government programs or if care is delivered within a Community Health Centre or Family Health Team that has integrated chiropractic services, but these are rare. It is advisable to check with private insurance providers for coverage details.

Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Chiropractor in ON?

No, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals in Ontario, and patients can directly book an appointment without a referral. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes, so it is recommended to verify your insurance policy.

Is there parking available at or near Beach Chiropractic and Wellness Centre?

Yes, there is free patient parking available directly in front of or behind our building. Metered street parking is also available on nearby streets, and paid parking options are available in the public parkade located one block east of our clinic. Limited free street parking may also be available nearby.

What is that 'cracking' or 'popping' sound during an adjustment?

The 'cracking' or 'popping' sound, technically called cavitation, is caused by the release of gas (mainly nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide) from the synovial fluid within a joint when it is stretched or moved quickly during an adjustment. This sound is similar to cracking your knuckles and is not an indicator of treatment effectiveness; the primary goal is restoring joint motion and relieving nerve pressure.

Do Chiropractors work with other healthcare professionals?

Yes, chiropractors often collaborate with other healthcare providers such as family physicians, physiotherapists, massage therapists, naturopathic doctors, and specialists to ensure comprehensive and coordinated care tailored to the patient's needs.
