- Is there parking available at or near Kineconsult?
- Yes, there is free patient parking available directly in front of or behind our building, providing easy access for visitors.
- Is chiropractic care covered by Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?
- Chiropractic services are not covered by RAMQ when provided in private clinics. Patients typically pay out-of-pocket or use private insurance. Coverage might vary if care is received in a hospital setting, but this is uncommon for private practices. Patients are advised to verify their insurance coverage and plan accordingly.
- 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. Scheduling an initial consultation with Dr. Barry allows her to perform a thorough assessment, discuss your health goals, and determine if chiropractic treatment is appropriate for your condition.
- What are Kineconsult's operating hours?
- Our clinic is typically open Monday to Friday from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with some early morning or evening appointments available on select days. We may also offer Saturday appointments from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Please call our office or check our website for the most current hours and practitioner availability.
- Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Chiropraticien in QC?
- Chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals in Quebec, allowing patients to book appointments directly without a referral. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes. Patients should verify their insurance policies for specific requirements.
- What is that 'cracking' or 'popping' sound during an adjustment?
- This sound is a common and usually harmless phenomenon called joint cavitation. When a joint is gapped during an adjustment, the pressure inside the joint decreases, allowing gases to form a bubble that quickly collapses, creating the 'pop'. Many effective adjustments occur without any sound at all.
