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

In Ontario, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals, which means patients can book an appointment directly without a referral from a medical doctor. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may still require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes, so it is advisable to check the specifics of your insurance policy before your visit.

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

Generally, OHIP does not cover chiropractic services in private clinics for most residents. 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 includes chiropractic services, but these are rare in private practice. Patients are encouraged to check with their private insurance providers for coverage details.

What is chiropractic care and how can it help me?

Chiropractic care helps your body move and function better by assessing your spine and joints for restrictions or misalignments that may cause pain or interfere with your nervous system. Through precise adjustments and treatments, Dr. Perri aims to improve mobility, reduce pain, and support overall health, enabling you to return to daily activities with greater ease.

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

The sound often heard during an adjustment is caused by the release of gas from the joint capsule as it is gently stretched. This is a normal part of the process and does not cause pain. The primary goal is restoring joint movement and function.

Can children and babies receive chiropractic care?

Yes, chiropractic care is safe and beneficial for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Techniques are always modified to be gentle and appropriate for a child's age and size. Parents often bring their children for concerns such as posture, after minor falls or sports-related tumbles, to support overall spinal health during growth, or for issues like colic or feeding difficulties in infants where gentle musculoskeletal approaches can be helpful.
