Approximately how many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

We believe in open communication and will regularly review your progress with you, adjusting the treatment plan as you improve and as needed.

What is manual therapy in physiotherapy?

In physiotherapy, manual therapy encompasses a range of 'hands-on' interventions. Marie-Ève 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.

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

In Quebec, physiotherapy services performed in private clinics are generally not covered directly by RAMQ. Patients typically pay out-of-pocket or through private insurance. Care received within a public hospital or CLSC may be covered if meeting specific criteria. It is advisable to verify your eligibility directly with RAMQ and consult your private insurance plan for coverage details.

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

A Physiothérapeute holds a university master's degree in physiotherapy and is authorized to perform assessments, establish diagnoses, and create treatment plans. A Technologue en physiothérapie holds a college diploma and works under supervision, applying prescribed treatment modalities but does not diagnose or independently plan treatments. Both professions are regulated by the Ordre professionnel de la physiothérapie du Québec (OPPQ).

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

In Quebec, patients can typically see a Physiothérapeute 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 recommended to check your insurance policy before your first appointment.

Is physiotherapy treatment supposed to be painful?

While some techniques might cause temporary discomfort or soreness, physiotherapy should not be excessively or intolerably painful. Marie-Ève will adjust treatments based on your comfort level and will communicate throughout to ensure a safe and effective session.
