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

In Ontario, OHIP generally does not cover chiropractic services in private clinics for most of the population. There are very limited exceptions, such as care provided within certain community health programs or specific health centers that have integrated chiropractic services, but these are rare. Most patients are advised to check their private extended health insurance plans for coverage, as many offer substantial benefits for chiropractic treatments. It is recommended to verify your specific coverage details directly with your insurance provider.

Is there parking available at or near Physiomed Vaughan?

Yes, there is free patient parking available directly in front of or behind our building. Additionally, metered street parking is readily available on nearby streets, and limited paid parking options are accessible in the public parkade located within one block east of the clinic. Ample parking options make visits convenient for all patients.

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

No, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals in Ontario, which means patients can book an appointment directly without a referral from a medical doctor. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes. It is advisable to check the specifics of your insurance policy to ensure coverage.

Do chiropractors provide exercises or stretches?

Yes, absolutely. Therapeutic exercises, stretches, and postural advice are often an integral part of a comprehensive chiropractic care plan. Your Chiropractor may prescribe tailored exercises to help improve your strength, flexibility, stability, and restore proper movement patterns. These are designed to support your recovery and promote long-term health.
