Frequently Asked Questions about Physiotherapy in Ottawa
- 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 or extended health insurance plans may require a referral for reimbursement of physiotherapy services. It is strongly recommended that you check with your insurance provider before your first appointment to understand their specific requirements.
- Is there parking available at or near St. Elizabeth Health Care?
- Metered street parking is available on the streets surrounding St. Elizabeth Health Care. There are also several paid parking lots within a short walking distance of the clinic. Please check local signage for time limits and restrictions.
- Is physiotherapy covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?
- OHIP generally does not cover physiotherapy services provided in private clinics. Publicly funded physiotherapy is available through specific programs, such as post-hospitalization care for certain conditions or through Community Physiotherapy Clinics/Family Health Teams, but eligibility criteria are strict and there may be waitlists. Most individuals will need to rely on private insurance or pay out-of-pocket for physiotherapy services in a private clinic. It is essential to check your private insurance coverage and eligibility for any public programs directly with OHIP.
- How long do physiotherapy appointments typically last?
- Your first physiotherapy appointment, which includes a detailed assessment and the development of your initial treatment plan, usually takes about 60 minutes. Follow-up appointments are typically scheduled for 30 to 45 minutes. The exact duration of each session will depend on the nature of your treatment and what your Physiotherapist has planned for that specific visit to best help you progress.
- Will I be given exercises to do at home?
- Absolutely! Home exercises are a vital part of your rehabilitation journey and empower you to take an active role in your recovery process. Your Physiotherapist will carefully select and teach you exercises specific to your needs. These exercises help to reinforce what's done in the clinic, manage your condition effectively, and ensure you continue progressing towards your goals even when you're not in a session.
- What should I do if my condition seems to worsen after a physiotherapy session?
- It's not uncommon to experience some temporary soreness or a mild increase in symptoms after certain physiotherapy treatments, especially in the initial stages or if you're starting new exercises. This usually subsides within 24-48 hours. However, if you experience a significant or sharp increase in pain, new or worsening neurological symptoms (like numbness, tingling, or weakness), or if your soreness lasts longer than expected, it's important to contact St. Elizabeth Health Care or your physician directly. They can provide advice, adjust your treatment plan if necessary, or determine if you need to be reassessed.
