- Struggling with the frustration of recovering from a burn and needing help with scar mobility and movement? Keven develops individualized physiotherapy programs specifically aimed at achieving getting back their independence with daily activities and personal care.

- Is there parking available at or near SET / Service d'Électro-Thérapie?
- Yes, there is ample free patient parking available directly in front of and beside our building. Look for the designated patient spots.
- Can physiotherapy help prevent injuries or recurring pain?
- Yes, absolutely! Physiotherapy plays a significant role in injury prevention and managing recurring pain. Your Physiotherapy Technologist can identify underlying risk factors such as muscle imbalances, poor movement patterns, postural issues, or biomechanical inefficiencies. By addressing these through targeted exercises, education on proper body mechanics, ergonomic advice, and activity modification, physiotherapy can help reduce your risk of initial injury, prevent re-injury, and manage chronic conditions more effectively, keeping you active and healthy.
- Is physiotherapy covered by the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?
- In Quebec, physiotherapy services provided in private clinics are generally not covered by RAMQ. Patients usually pay out-of-pocket or through private insurance. Care received directly within a public hospital or CLSC might be covered if meeting specific criteria, but private outpatient physiotherapy is typically not included. It is recommended to verify with RAMQ and with your private insurer for coverage details.
- Will I be given exercises to do at home?
- Yes, in almost all cases, you will receive a customized home exercise program. These exercises are carefully chosen by your Physiotherapy Technologist to specifically target your issues and help you achieve your functional goals faster and more effectively. Performing them as recommended is very important for your progress and for maintaining the improvements you make during your clinic visits.
- What is the difference between a Physiotherapist (Physiothérapeute) and a Physiotherapy Technologist (Technologue en physiothérapie) in Quebec?
- A Physiothérapeute in Quebec has completed master's level university education, granting them the autonomy to assess patients, make a physiotherapy diagnosis, and develop comprehensive treatment plans. They can also perform certain advanced procedures if they have the required additional qualifications. A Technologue en physiothérapie, on the other hand, has a college diploma (DEC) focused on the technical application of physiotherapy treatments. They play a crucial role in delivering care by implementing treatment plans designed by a physiotherapist or physician, assisting patients with their exercises, applying modalities, and reporting progress back to the supervising professional.
- Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Physiotherapy Technologist in QC?
- Patients in Quebec can typically see a Physiotherapy Technologist directly without a physician's referral, a process known as direct access. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a referral for reimbursement purposes. It is advisable to check with your insurance provider before your appointment to confirm their specific requirements.
