- Is there parking available at or near our clinic?
- Yes, there is free patient parking available directly in front of or behind our building.
- Is chiropractic care covered by Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?
- Generally, OHIP does not cover chiropractic services in private clinics for most of the population. There may be very limited exceptions through specific programs or if care is delivered within certain community health settings. Patients are advised to check their private insurance plans for coverage details.
- What is our clinic'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.
- Do chiropractors provide exercises or stretches?
- Yes, absolutely. Therapeutic exercises, stretches, and postural advice are often a key component of a comprehensive chiropractic care plan. Your Chiropractor may prescribe specific exercises tailored to your condition to help improve strength, flexibility, stability, restore proper movement patterns, and promote long-term recovery and injury prevention.
- Is chiropractic treatment, especially an adjustment, painful?
- Most patients find chiropractic adjustments to be a comfortable procedure. The goal is to reduce pain and improve function. While there might be a brief moment of pressure, it's rarely painful. If your muscles are very tight or joints are inflamed, you might feel some temporary soreness afterwards, but your Chiropractor will discuss this with you and tailor the force and technique to your needs.
- Do I need a doctor’s referral to see a Chiropractor in ON?
- Chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals in Ontario, meaning patients can book an appointment 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?
- The audible release sometimes heard during a chiropractic adjustment is simply the sound of gas being released from the joint capsule as it is gently stretched. It’s perfectly normal and doesn’t hurt. The important thing is the restoration of movement, not the sound.
