At London Health Sciences Centre, physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Jamie Bailey frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:

• At Jamie Bailey's physiotherapy practice, individuals with feeling like my joints are just 'wearing out' and getting harder to move are guided towards a deeper understanding of their condition and how to manage it proactively for long-term well-being. The focus is on enabling you to once again participate fully and comfortably in activities you enjoy, such as getting in and out of the car smoothly and without wincing.
• Many find that trying to stay as mobile and active as possible while living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) significantly impacts their ability to peacefully paddling their kayak or canoe on the lake for hours. Jamie Bailey helps patients target resuming gardening, hobbies, or household tasks without strain or discomfort with physiotherapy, making a return to these activities possible.
• The path to recovery from experiencing discomfort, back pain, or pelvic girdle pain during or after pregnancy and achieving reduced swelling and inflammation in injured areas for standing for longer periods, for example, while cooking or at an event often starts with expert guidance. Jamie Bailey, a skilled physiotherapist, provides just that.
• With Jamie Bailey's help, managing sharp pain shooting down my leg, feeling a lot like sciatica to achieve a significant improvement in their overall quality of life and daily well-being becomes a clear journey, allowing patients to confidently re-engage with life and activities like handling their job that involves frequent standing, walking, or bending.

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

OHIP generally does NOT cover physiotherapy services in private outpatient clinics for most Ontarians. Publicly funded physiotherapy is available in specific situations (e.g., post-hospitalization for certain conditions, for children/youth, seniors, or through Community Physiotherapy Clinics/Family Health Teams), but eligibility criteria are strict and there may be waitlists. Always check your private/extended health insurance plan, as many offer significant physiotherapy coverage for services in private clinics.

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

Patients in ON can typically see a Physiotherapist directly without a physician's referral (direct access). However, some private/extended health insurance plans require a referral for reimbursement. Check your insurance policy before your first appointment.

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

Please wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows the Physiotherapist to easily access and assess the area being treated, and permits you to move freely for any exercises or movements. For example, shorts are ideal for knee, hip, or ankle issues, while a tank top or loose t-shirt works well for shoulder, neck, or upper back problems. Athletic wear or gym attire is generally a good choice. You may also be provided with a gown if needed.

What types of conditions do Physiotherapists at London Health Sciences Centre treat?

Our Physiotherapists treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions. This includes, but is not limited to, back and neck pain, joint problems (such as arthritis or post-surgical recovery), and sports injuries. We also have therapists with specialized skills in areas like Orthopedic and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. Our treatments often involve manual therapy, exercise prescription, and patient education to help you achieve your functional goals.

What is London Health Sciences Centre's appointment cancellation policy?

We understand that schedules can change unexpectedly. We kindly request at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations or rescheduling. A fee may be charged for late cancellations or missed appointments. Please contact our clinic as soon as possible if you need to make any changes to your appointment.

How long do physiotherapy appointments typically last?

Your first appointment usually takes about 60 minutes. Follow-up appointments are typically 30 to 45 minutes. The exact duration will depend on your treatment.

Approximately how many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

It's difficult to say exactly how many sessions you'll need without a thorough assessment. Your Physiotherapist will provide an estimated timeline after your first visit.
