Many parents seek chiropractic care for concerns related to posture, after minor falls or sports-related tumbles, to support spinal health during growth spurts, or for issues like colic or feeding difficulties in infants.

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

Generally, OHIP does not cover chiropractic services in private clinics. There may be very limited exceptions through specific government programs or if care is delivered within a Community Health Centre or Family Health Team with integrated services.
