Frequently Asked Questions about Chiropractic Care
- 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 are trained to work with pregnant women and use modified adjustment techniques and specialized tables or pillows to ensure the comfort and safety of both mother and baby. Some chiropractors, like Dr. Jackson, are also certified in the Webster Technique, a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment for pregnant women.
- Is there parking available at or near London Chiropractic and Massage Clinic?
- Yes, there is free patient parking available directly in front of or behind our building, making visits convenient for patients.
- Is chiropractic care covered by Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?
- Ontario's OHIP generally does not cover chiropractic services in private clinics for most of the population. There might 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 this is rare for typical private practices. Patients are advised to check their private insurance plans for coverage.
- Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Chiropractor in ON?
- 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. Patients should verify the specifics of their insurance policies.
- How can I tell if chiropractic care is right for me?
- If you are experiencing pain, stiffness, or dysfunction related to your spine, muscles, joints, or nerves—such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, or extremity joint problems—chiropractic care may be very beneficial. It is recommended to schedule an initial consultation where Dr. Jackson can perform a thorough assessment, discuss your health goals, and determine if chiropractic treatment is appropriate or if another approach might be more suitable for your condition.
