- Can children and babies receive chiropractic care?
- Yes, chiropractic care is safe and can be highly beneficial for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Dr. Sohl always modifies her techniques to be extremely gentle and appropriate for each child's age, size, and developmental stage. Many parents seek chiropractic care for concerns related to posture, after minor falls or sports-related tumbles, to support overall spinal health during growth spurts, or for issues like colic or feeding difficulties in infants, where gentle musculoskeletal approaches may be supportive.
- Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Chiropractor in ON?
- No, in Ontario, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals, meaning patients can book an appointment directly without a referral from a medical doctor. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may still require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes. It's advisable to check the specifics of your individual insurance policy.
- 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 government programs or if care is delivered within a Community Health Centre or Family Health Team that has integrated chiropractic services, but these are rare for typical private practices. Patients should verify their private insurance coverage for chiropractic care.
- Do chiropractors provide exercises or stretches?
- Absolutely. While adjustments are a core component of chiropractic care, most chiropractors also incorporate rehabilitative exercises and stretches into their treatment plans. These are designed to support the effects of adjustments, correct muscle imbalances, and empower patients to manage their conditions effectively.
- What does a chiropractor mean by a 'subluxation' or 'joint restriction'?
- In chiropractic, a 'vertebral subluxation' or 'joint restriction' (also sometimes called a joint dysfunction) refers to a spinal or extremity joint that has lost its normal position or motion. This can irritate surrounding nerves, muscles, and tissues, potentially causing pain, inflammation, or reduced mobility. The goal of a chiropractic adjustment is to correct these restrictions and restore proper joint function.
