Back Neck Pain

• Whiplash Associated Disorders (WAD): Symptoms resulting from a whiplash injury, which can vary in severity (WAD Grades I-III) and duration, requiring a comprehensive physiotherapy approach for recovery.
• Spinal Stenosis Symptoms: Often age-related changes leading to pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots, causing pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the legs with walking (neurogenic claudication in lumbar stenosis) or in the arms/hands (cervical stenosis).

Common Musculoskeletal

• Shoulder Pain (e.g., Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy, Impingement, Frozen Shoulder/Adhesive Capsulitis): Discomfort felt around the shoulder blade, at the top of the shoulder, or radiating down the arm, making simple tasks challenging.

• Muscle Strains and Tears: Common injuries in active individuals, athletes, or resulting from accidents, leading to localized pain, swelling, bruising, and weakness in the affected muscle (e.g., hamstring, calf, quadriceps, groin, rotator cuff).
• Wrist and Hand Pain (e.g., Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, De Quervain's Tenosynovitis, Strains): Symptoms in your hand or wrist that impact your ability to perform your job, hobbies, or essential self-care tasks, addressed by specialized hand physiotherapy.

• Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) / Photobiomodulation: A non-invasive light therapy used in physiotherapy to treat various musculoskeletal conditions, promote faster healing, reduce pain, and modulate inflammation without generating heat.
• Soft Tissue Mobilization & Release Techniques: Targeted manual methods performed by your Physiotherapist to release tight or overactive muscles, address fascial restrictions, and alleviate pain arising from soft tissue dysfunction.
• Manual Therapy (Joint Mobilization & Manipulation): Application of precise, passive movements to joints to decrease stiffness, relieve pain, and facilitate easier, more comfortable movement.

• Living with post-operative stiffness and weakness that's slowing down my recovery doesn't have to be your norm. Mohamed Ibrahim applies expert physiotherapy knowledge to work towards experiencing significant pain relief, allowing for a more comfortable daily life, so you can get back to the simple pleasure of enduring their daily commute, whether driving or on public transit, without stiffness.
• Are you finding that wrist pain and tingling, possibly from carpal tunnel syndrome, especially at night stops you from enjoying managing shopping trips and carrying bags without excessive fatigue or pain? Mohamed Ibrahim is dedicated to helping patients like you achieve restoring normal movement patterns essential for everyday tasks through a hands-on, active approach to physiotherapy.
• Dealing with the ongoing challenges of feeling 'off-balance' and worried about falling, especially as I get older?

This might involve specific rehabilitation techniques, hands-on care, and a home program, all aimed at helping you confidently resume important activities, such as working at their desk all day without developing back or neck stiffness.

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, some private health insurance plans may require one for coverage. It is strongly recommended that you check with your insurance provider before your first appointment to understand their specific requirements for physiotherapy coverage.

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

Physiotherapy services in private clinics are generally not covered by OHIP. OHIP may cover physiotherapy in specific situations, such as after a hospital stay for certain conditions, or for children, youth, and seniors through specific programs and community clinics. Eligibility criteria are strict, and wait times may apply. It's essential to verify your eligibility directly with OHIP. Most people rely on private insurance for coverage of physiotherapy in private clinics; check your private insurance policy for details.

Is there anything specific I should bring to my first physiotherapy appointment?

It's helpful to bring your health card, any referral letters from other healthcare providers if you were referred, and any reports or images from relevant medical tests (X-rays, MRIs, etc.) related to your condition. If you have private insurance coverage for physiotherapy, please bring your insurance card or policy details for billing purposes. Comfortable attire that allows for easy movement during the assessment is also recommended.

Does Sutton Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Clinic offer direct billing to private insurance companies?

Please contact Sutton Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Clinic directly at (905) 596-6161 to inquire about their direct billing options with private insurance companies. Even if they do offer direct billing, always confirm your coverage details with your insurance provider.

How can I book an appointment at Sutton Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Clinic?

You can book an appointment by calling Sutton Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Clinic directly at (905) 596-6161 during their business hours. Their friendly reception team will be happy to assist you in finding a suitable appointment time.

How long do physiotherapy appointments typically last?

You can expect your initial physiotherapy visit to be around an hour long. This extended time allows for a comprehensive assessment of your condition and a collaborative discussion about your treatment goals. Subsequent follow-up sessions are generally between 30 and 45 minutes, though this can be adjusted based on your individual requirements. Your Physiotherapist will advise on the appropriate appointment length for your specific care.

Will I be given exercises to do at home?

Yes, a personalized home exercise program is a crucial and integral component of most physiotherapy treatment plans. Your Physiotherapist will prescribe specific exercises tailored to your condition, abilities, and goals. These exercises are designed to complement your in-clinic treatment, help you manage your symptoms effectively between sessions, accelerate your recovery, and empower you with tools for long-term self-management. Your active participation in your home program is key for optimal results.
