- Is chiropractic care covered by Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?
- In Ontario, OHIP generally does NOT cover chiropractic services provided in private clinics. Limited exceptions may exist if the care is delivered within a Community Health Centre or Family Health Team that offers integrated chiropractic services, but these are rare. Patients are advised to check their private extended health insurance plans for coverage details.
- Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Chiropractor in ON?
- No. Chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals in Ontario, and patients can book an appointment directly without a referral. However, some private insurance plans may require a referral for reimbursement purposes, so it is recommended to verify your insurance policy.
- How can I tell if chiropractic care is right for me?
- If you are experiencing pain, stiffness, or dysfunction related to your spine, muscles, joints, or nerves—such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, or extremity joint issues—chiropractic care may be beneficial. Scheduling an initial consultation allows Dr. Chohan to perform a thorough assessment and discuss whether chiropractic treatment is suitable for your condition.
- What is that 'cracking' or 'popping' sound during an adjustment?
- The 'cracking' or 'popping' sound, technically called cavitation, occurs when gas is released from the joint's synovial fluid during a quick stretch or movement. This sound is similar to cracking knuckles and is not an indicator of treatment effectiveness. The primary goal of the adjustment is restoring joint motion and reducing nerve pressure.
- What should I expect during my first chiropractic appointment?
- Your initial visit involves a detailed consultation and physical examination, including postural analysis, spinal assessment, range of motion tests, and neurological screenings. Dr. Chohan will discuss your health history, symptoms, and treatment goals, and then propose a personalized care plan. Some treatment or advice may be provided during this first session.
