Achieving Your Health Goals with Physiotherapy Care
At Old North Physiotherapy Centre-PT Health, physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Morgan Jennings frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:
- Many individuals seek help from Morgan Jennings, their physiotherapist, when wrist pain and tingling, possibly from carpal tunnel syndrome, especially at night starts impacting daily life. Through a personalized physiotherapy plan, they often achieve noticeable strength gains in their limbs, supporting more demanding tasks, empowering them to joyfully return to activities like getting back to cycling for leisure or commuting.
- Through personalized physiotherapy at Morgan Jennings's clinic, common concerns like that nagging tennis elbow (or golfer's elbow) that flares up with activity are thoroughly assessed and addressed with the objective of more comfortable and efficient movement when transitioning between positions (e.g., sit to stand). This often involves a combination of in-clinic treatment, education, and self-management strategies, helping people to once again enjoy activities like using garden tools effectively and without pain.
- Morgan Jennings frequently assists patients in overcoming the effects of that persistent ache in my lower back that just won't quit. A carefully designed physiotherapy program, potentially including specialized manual techniques and progressive exercises, targets improved overall mobility, making it easier to navigate their home and community and supports your enthusiastic engagement in desired activities like feeling energetic enough to engage in social activities in the evenings.
- With Morgan Jennings's help, managing feeling 'off-balance' and worried about falling, especially as I get older to achieve the ability to manage symptoms independently if they occasionally recur becomes a clear journey, allowing patients to confidently re-engage with life and activities like travelling more comfortably on planes, trains, or in cars for longer durations.

Frequently Asked Questions about Physiotherapy in London
- What is physiotherapy and how can it help me?
- Physiotherapy, delivered by a qualified Physiotherapist, is a science-based profession that focuses on restoring movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness, or disability. It can also help to reduce your risk of future problems. Your physiotherapist will use techniques such as therapeutic exercise, manual therapy (hands-on treatment), education, and advice, empowering you to manage your health independently and achieve your physical goals.
- Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Physiotherapist in ON?
- In Ontario, you can typically see a Physiotherapist directly without a doctor's referral. This is known as direct access. However, some private/extended health insurance plans may require a referral for reimbursement of physiotherapy services. It is strongly recommended that you check with your insurance provider to understand their specific requirements before your first appointment.
- Can physiotherapy help prevent injuries or recurring pain?
- Definitely. A key aspect of physiotherapy is not just treating current problems but also preventing future ones. A Physiotherapist can assess your movement, identify potential weaknesses or imbalances that could lead to injury, and provide you with a personalized program of exercises and strategies. This proactive approach is beneficial for athletes, individuals with physically demanding jobs, or anyone looking to maintain long-term musculoskeletal health and avoid recurring pain.
- How long do physiotherapy appointments typically last?
- Your initial physiotherapy visit will likely be around an hour long to allow for a thorough assessment and discussion of your treatment goals. Follow-up appointments are usually between 30 and 45 minutes, but this can vary depending on your individual needs.
- Will I be given exercises to do at home?
- Yes, a personalized home exercise program is a crucial part of most physiotherapy treatment plans. Your Physiotherapist will provide specific exercises tailored to your condition, abilities, and goals to complement your in-clinic treatment and accelerate your recovery.
- Is physiotherapy covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?
- OHIP generally does not cover physiotherapy services in private outpatient clinics. 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. It's essential to check your private insurance coverage as many plans offer significant benefits for physiotherapy services in private clinics.
- I have private health insurance. How does that work with physiotherapy payments?
- Many private health insurance plans offer coverage for physiotherapy. Before your first appointment, contact your insurance provider to understand your plan's specifics, including your annual maximum, per-visit limits, co-payments, referral requirements, and whether direct billing is available. If direct billing is possible, we can bill your insurer directly. Otherwise, we will provide a receipt for you to submit to your insurer.
- How can I book an appointment at Old North Physiotherapy Centre-PT Health?
- You can book an appointment by calling our clinic at (226) 271-3266 during business hours. Online booking may also be available through our website.
