Is chiropractic care covered by Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In Quebec, RAMQ does not cover chiropractic services provided in private clinics. Patients typically pay out-of-pocket or use private insurance for coverage. However, if care is received in a hospital setting, coverage policies may differ. It is advisable to verify your specific coverage with RAMQ and your private insurer.

Is there parking available at or near Dre Marie-Perle Hénault, chiropraticienne?

Yes, there is free patient parking available directly in front of or behind the clinic building. Limited street parking is also available nearby on surrounding streets, and paid parking options are accessible in the nearby public parkade located about one block east of the clinic.

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. Chiropraticiens trained in prenatal care, like Dr. Hénault, use modified adjustment techniques and specialized tables or pillows to ensure comfort and safety for both mother and baby. Some chiropractors, including Dr. Hénault, are certified in the Webster Technique, a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment for pregnant women.

Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Chiropraticien in QC?

No, chiropractors in Quebec are primary contact healthcare professionals, so a referral is not required to book an appointment. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes. It is recommended to check your insurance policy details.

What kind of education and training do chiropractors in Canada receive?

Chiropractors in Canada complete a rigorous post-secondary Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree, which typically involves a minimum of three years of undergraduate university education followed by four years of intensive study at an accredited chiropractic college. Their education includes comprehensive training in anatomy, physiology, pathology, neurology, biomechanics, diagnostic imaging, orthopedics, differential diagnosis, and chiropractic-specific techniques. Graduates must pass national and provincial board examinations to become licensed practitioners.

What should I expect during my first chiropractic appointment?

The first appointment focuses on assessment and understanding your health background. Dr. Hénault will perform physical examinations and discuss your concerns to identify the underlying causes of your condition. If appropriate, treatment may be initiated during this initial visit, and you will have the opportunity to ask questions about your care plan.
