Do chiropractors only treat back pain?

No, not at all! Although back pain is a common reason people visit a Chiropraticien, we are trained to diagnose and treat many different conditions related to your spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system. This can include neck pain, headaches, sciatica, sports injuries, arthritis-related pain, and pain in your arms or legs.

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

In Quebec, RAMQ does not cover chiropractic services performed in private clinics. Patients typically pay out-of-pocket or through private insurance. Some hospital-based services might differ, but most care is self-funded or insured privately. Patients are advised to verify their coverage with their insurer and consult their private extended health plan for reimbursement options.

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

No, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals in Quebec, so you can book an appointment directly without a referral. However, some private insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes. It is recommended to check with your insurer about their specific requirements.

What should I expect during my first chiropractic appointment?

The first session focuses on assessment and understanding your health concerns. Dr. Lussier will review your medical history, perform physical examinations, and discuss potential treatment options. If appropriate, treatment may begin during this initial visit, and you will have the opportunity to ask questions and express your goals.

Is it safe to see a chiropractor if I'm pregnant?

Yes, chiropractic care during pregnancy is generally considered safe and can be very beneficial. Chiropractors, including Dr. Lussier, are trained to work with pregnant women using modified techniques, specialized tables, and pillows to ensure comfort and safety. Many pregnant women experience relief from back pain, pelvic discomfort, and sciatica through gentle adjustments. Some chiropractors are also certified in the Webster Technique, which can further support optimal pelvic alignment and ease during pregnancy.
