At LifeMark Physiotherapy, physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Jay Dhaliwal frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:

• At Jay Dhaliwal's physiotherapy practice, individuals with persistent dizziness that isn't a spinning vertigo but makes me feel unsteady are guided towards better managing flare-ups with personalized strategies and feeling more in control of their symptoms. The focus is on enabling you to once again participate fully and comfortably in activities you enjoy, such as pushing a stroller or shopping cart without difficulty.
• Patients often come to Jay Dhaliwal feeling defeated by feeling like my joints are just 'wearing out' and getting harder to move.

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

In Ontario, you typically do not need a doctor's referral to see a physiotherapist. This is known as "direct access." However, even though a referral isn't legally required to book an appointment, many private insurance plans will require a physician's referral for coverage of physiotherapy services. It is strongly recommended that you check with your insurance provider to understand their specific requirements before your first appointment.

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

Physiotherapy services provided in private clinics are generally not covered by OHIP. OHIP may cover physiotherapy in specific circumstances, such as after a hospital stay for certain conditions, or for specific populations such as children, youth, and seniors through specific programs. Eligibility criteria are strict and there may be waitlists. Publicly funded physiotherapy may also be available through Community Physiotherapy Clinics or Family Health Teams. To determine your eligibility for publicly funded physiotherapy, please contact OHIP directly. Most Ontarians will need to rely on private or extended health insurance coverage for physiotherapy services at private clinics. Always check your private insurance policy to determine your coverage.

What should I expect during my first physiotherapy appointment?

During your first visit, the Physiotherapist will conduct a detailed evaluation to get a full picture of your condition. This usually involves a thorough discussion about your symptoms, how they impact your daily life, any relevant medical history, and your personal goals for therapy. A physical assessment will then be performed to help pinpoint the cause of your problem and assess your physical capabilities. Afterwards, your therapist will explain their findings, collaborate with you to set treatment goals, and outline a proposed plan of care. You'll likely receive some initial advice, exercises, or hands-on treatment to begin your recovery journey.

What is manual therapy in physiotherapy?

In physiotherapy, manual therapy encompasses a range of 'hands-on' interventions. Your Physiotherapist may use these techniques to help reduce your pain, increase joint movement, relax tight muscles, or improve the mobility of your nerves. Common approaches include joint glides, sustained pressures, specific soft tissue massage, and, when indicated, joint manipulations. It's a key part of helping your body move better.
