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

In Quebec, RAMQ does not cover chiropractic services provided in private clinics. Patients generally pay out-of-pocket or through private insurance plans. For residents of other provinces, coverage varies. For example, AHCIP in Alberta offers limited coverage for seniors and dependents, while MSP in BC provides partial coverage for a limited number of visits. In Ontario, OHIP generally does not cover chiropractic services in private clinics. Patients are advised to verify their private insurance plans for coverage details. It is recommended to check directly with RAMQ or your insurance provider for specific coverage information.

What is Château Multisoins's appointment cancellation policy?

We understand that life happens! However, to ensure we can accommodate all our patients, we kindly request at least 24 hours' notice for any appointment cancellations or rescheduling. Appointments missed or cancelled with less than 24 hours' notice may be subject to a cancellation fee. Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to make changes.

Is it safe to see a chiropractor if I'm pregnant?

Chiropractic care during pregnancy is generally considered safe and can be very effective for managing common musculoskeletal complaints such as back pain, pelvic girdle pain, and sciatica that often arise due to hormonal changes and shifting biomechanics. Chiropractors, including Dr. Wentzel, are trained to work with pregnant women and often use modified adjustment techniques and specialized tables or pillows to ensure both comfort and safety. Some chiropractors, like Dr. Perron, are also certified in the Webster Technique, a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment for pregnant women.

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

In Quebec, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals, meaning patients can book an appointment directly without a referral from a medical doctor. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes. It is advisable to check the specifics of your individual insurance policy. The same applies in other provinces such as Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario.

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 is similar to the sound made when cracking your knuckles. The sound itself is not the goal of the adjustment and does not indicate the effectiveness of the treatment; the primary purpose is to restore joint motion and reduce nerve pressure.
