Can physiotherapy help prevent injuries or recurring pain?

Definitely. A key aspect of physiotherapy is not just treating current problems but also preventing future ones. A Physiotherapist can assess your movement, identify potential weaknesses or imbalances that could lead to injury, and provide you with a personalized program of exercises and strategies. This proactive approach is beneficial for athletes, individuals with physically demanding jobs, or anyone looking to maintain long-term musculoskeletal health and avoid recurring pain.

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

In Ontario, you can typically see a Physiotherapist directly without a doctor's referral. This is known as direct access. However, some private health insurance plans may require a referral for coverage, so it's crucial to check your insurance policy before your appointment.

I have private health insurance. How does that work with physiotherapy payments?

Many private health insurance plans cover physiotherapy, either fully or partially. Before your first appointment, contact your insurer to understand your coverage: annual maximum, per-visit limits, co-payments, referral requirements, and direct billing options. If Physiomed Vaughan offers direct billing and your plan allows it, they can bill your insurer directly. Otherwise, you'll receive a receipt to submit for reimbursement. Bring your insurance card and policy details to your appointment.

What should I expect during my first physiotherapy appointment?

Your first appointment will involve a thorough assessment. You'll discuss your issue, its history, and your health. Eugene Ambrosi will perform physical tests to assess your movement and strength. The goal is to understand your condition to create a personalized treatment plan. You may also receive initial exercises or hands-on care.

Is physiotherapy covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

OHIP generally does not cover physiotherapy in private clinics. Publicly funded physiotherapy is available in specific situations (e.g., post-hospitalization) but eligibility is strict, and waitlists may apply. Check your private insurance for coverage.

Will I be given exercises to do at home?

Yes, a home exercise program is a key part of most physiotherapy plans. Eugene Ambrosi will tailor exercises to your condition, abilities, and goals to complement your in-clinic treatment and support your recovery.

Does Physiomed Vaughan offer direct billing to private insurance companies?

Please contact Physiomed Vaughan directly to inquire about their direct billing options with private insurance companies. It is recommended to confirm your coverage details with your insurance provider before your appointment.

What kind of clothing should I wear to my physiotherapy appointment?

Wear comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement, similar to what you'd wear to the gym. Shorts are helpful for lower-body treatments, and a tank top or loose t-shirt is suitable for upper-body treatments.
