• Patients struggling with one leg feeling shorter than the other, causing hip or back pain can find dedicated and compassionate support from Koriane. The therapeutic focus is squarely on achieving feeling more like their 'old self' before their injury or condition began, using a range of physiotherapy services to facilitate a return to meaningful daily activities such as taking long photography walks to capture nature or cityscapes.

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

In Quebec, RAMQ generally does not cover physiotherapy services provided in private clinics. Patients usually pay out-of-pocket or rely on private insurance. Care received directly within a public hospital or CLSC might be covered if meeting specific criteria. It is important to verify eligibility directly with RAMQ and check your private extended health insurance for coverage options.

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

In Quebec, patients can typically access a Physiotherapy Technologist directly without a physician's referral, 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 prior to your first appointment.

What is the difference between a Physiotherapist (Physiothérapeute) and a Physiotherapy Technologist (Technologue en physiothérapie) in Quebec?

A Physiothérapeute (Physiotherapist) holds a university master's degree and is authorized to perform assessments, establish diagnoses, and create treatment plans independently. A Technologue en physiothérapie (Physiotherapy Technologist) holds a college diploma and works under the supervision of a physiotherapist or physician, applying prescribed treatments and guiding exercises without diagnosing or establishing treatment plans independently. Both are regulated by the Ordre professionnel de la physiothérapie du Québec (OPPQ).

Can physiotherapy help prevent injuries or recurring pain?

Yes, physiotherapy plays a key role in injury prevention and managing recurring pain by addressing underlying risk factors such as muscle imbalances, poor movement patterns, and postural issues. Targeted exercises, education, and ergonomic advice help reduce the risk of initial injury and re-injury, supporting long-term health and activity.

What types of conditions do Physiotherapy Technologists at Kinatex Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu treat?

They treat a wide range of musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiorespiratory conditions, including back and neck pain, joint issues such as arthritis and post-surgical recovery, sports injuries like shoulder tendinitis, nerve pain, and pelvic health concerns. Treatments often involve therapeutic exercises, modality application, and patient education to help achieve functional goals.
