Ivon Lorena Parra Beltran provides skilled physiotherapy care for a variety of conditions, including but not limited to:

Sports Injury

• Shin Splints (Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome): Pain and tenderness along the inner edge of the shinbone (tibia), often resulting from running, jumping, or other repetitive impact activities, especially with sudden increases in training intensity or volume.
• Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (Runner's Knee / Anterior Knee Pain): Dull, aching pain in the front of the knee, often related to issues with the alignment and movement of the patella within the femoral groove.
• Ligament Sprains (e.g., ACL, MCL, PCL, Ankle Ligaments): Injuries like a 'twisted ankle', 'knee ligament injury', or 'shoulder separation' (AC joint sprain) sustained during athletic activity or accidental falls.

Post Surgical

• Post-Shoulder Surgery Rehabilitation (e.g., Rotator Cuff Repair, Labral Repair, Stabilization, Replacement): Specialized physiotherapy focused on regaining shoulder movement, strength, stability, and function after various types of shoulder surgeries, such as rotator cuff repair, labral tear repair, shoulder stabilization procedures (e.g., Bankart repair), or shoulder joint replacement (arthroplasty).
• Post-Knee Replacement Rehabilitation (Total or Partial Knee Arthroplasty - TKA/PKA): The crucial rehabilitation phase following total or partial knee replacement surgery, with physiotherapy focusing on restoring range of motion, building strength, improving balance, managing pain and swelling, and enabling functional mobility (e.g., walking, stairs, getting in/out of a car).

Common Msk

• Ankle Sprains and Instability: Injuries to ankle ligaments, typically from twisting or 'rolling' motions, leading to pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty bearing weight. Can result in recurrent sprains and chronic instability if not properly rehabilitated.
• Wrist and Hand Pain (e.g., Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, De Quervain's Tenosynovitis, Strains): Aching, burning, sharp pain, or a 'pins and needles' sensation in the wrist, thumb, or hand region, sometimes waking you at night.

This list offers examples of conditions commonly addressed. If your specific concern isn't listed, please contact the clinic. Ivon can assess your needs.

• General Reconditioning & Fitness Programs: Graded exercise programs designed to improve your overall physical fitness, endurance, strength, and functional capacity, especially beneficial after illness, surgery, or periods of prolonged inactivity.
• Core Stability & Strengthening Training: Developing control, strength, and endurance in your core musculature for improved functional performance, pain reduction, and prevention of re-injury.
• Strength & Conditioning for Rehabilitation and Performance: Progressive resistance training programs designed by your Physiotherapist to improve muscle performance, support joint health, and enhance functional capacity for daily life or sport.
• Manual Therapy (Joint Mobilization & Manipulation): Application of precise, passive movements to joints to decrease stiffness, relieve pain, and facilitate easier, more comfortable movement.
• Stretching & Flexibility Programs: Specific stretches designed by your therapist to target tight muscle groups relevant to your condition, helping to improve your flexibility and reduce your risk of injury.

At Espace Physio Forme Inc., physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Ivon frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:

• The journey to being able to travel more comfortably and with less planning around physical limitations when faced with persistent dealing with pelvic pain or bladder/bowel control issues (for both men and women) is made smoother and more effective with Ivon's expert physiotherapy care, often leading to a fulfilling and active return to pastimes like performing tasks requiring fine motor skills and dexterity with ease.
• Patients often come to Ivon feeling defeated by a noticeable curve in my child's spine or uneven shoulders (scoliosis concerns). With a supportive and targeted physiotherapy approach, achieving moving more freely and with greater agility than they have in years and resuming enjoying long, challenging hikes on weekends again becomes a realistic and attainable goal.
• The path to recovery from trying to stay as mobile and active as possible while living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and achieving enjoying family vacations and outings with more energy and less pain for engaging in volunteer work that might have physical demands often starts with expert guidance. Ivon, a skilled physiotherapist, provides just that.

Your personalized physiotherapy plan, developed with Ivon, will be designed to help you reach your specific functional and wellness objectives.

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

In Quebec, patients can generally see a Physiothérapeute directly without a physician's referral, a process known as direct access. However, while a referral is not legally required to access physiotherapy services, some private or extended health insurance plans may require one for reimbursement. It's advisable to check your insurance policy before your appointment to confirm coverage.

Is there parking available at or near Espace Physio Forme Inc.?

Yes, there is ample free patient parking available directly in front of and beside our building. Look for the designated patient spots. Additional street parking may be available on nearby streets, and paid parking options are also accessible in the vicinity. Always check local signage for parking restrictions.

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

Generally, physiotherapy services in private clinics are not covered by RAMQ, and patients usually pay out-of-pocket or through private insurance. Some services received within public hospitals or CLSCs may be covered if you meet specific criteria. It is recommended to verify your coverage directly with RAMQ and your private insurer.

What is the difference between a Physiothérapeute and a Technologue en physiothérapie in Quebec?

A Physiothérapeute holds a university master's degree and is authorized to assess, diagnose, and create treatment plans. A Technologue en physiothérapie holds a college diploma and works under the supervision of a physiotherapist or physician, applying prescribed treatments and guiding exercises without diagnosing independently. Both are regulated by the OPPQ.

Does Espace Physio Forme Inc. offer direct billing to private insurance companies?

Yes, our clinic offers direct billing for most major private insurance providers such as Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life, Green Shield, and Blue Cross. Please bring your insurance card and policy details to your appointment. Always confirm your coverage with your insurer before treatment, as plans and limits vary.
