At Tiffany Taylor Physiothérapie Sportif & Périnéale, physiotherapy is focused on helping individuals like you achieve significant improvements in health and daily activities. Tiffany frequently helps patients work towards goals such as:

• Patients often come to Tiffany feeling defeated by wrist pain and tingling, possibly from carpal tunnel syndrome, especially at night. With a supportive and targeted physiotherapy approach, achieving reduced muscle tension and a feeling of greater physical ease and resuming playing your musical instrument (guitar, piano, violin, etc.) for extended periods becomes a realistic and attainable goal.
• Dealing with the ongoing challenges of pain or weakness that's stopping me from enjoying my favorite hobbies? Tiffany works collaboratively with patients to reach the goal of restoring normal movement patterns essential for everyday tasks.

The facility is conveniently positioned within the community, making it easy for patients to access high-quality physiotherapy services close to local community resources and pharmacies.

Our clinic is wheelchair accessible. Ample parking is generally accessible close to the clinic entrance.

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

In Quebec, patients can generally access a Physiothérapeute directly through a process known as "direct access," meaning a referral from a doctor is not legally required to see a physiotherapist. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a physician's referral for reimbursement purposes. It is advisable to check with your insurance provider before your first appointment to confirm their specific requirements.

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

In Quebec, RAMQ typically does not cover physiotherapy services provided in private clinics. Patients usually pay out-of-pocket or through private insurance. Certain publicly funded physiotherapy services may be available through hospitals or CLSCs under specific conditions, but for most private outpatient services, private insurance is used to cover costs. It is recommended to verify your eligibility and coverage with RAMQ and your insurance provider.

Is there parking available at or near Tiffany Taylor Physiothérapie Sportif & Périnéale?

Yes, there is ample free patient parking available directly in front of and beside our building. Look for the designated patient spots. Additional street parking may be available nearby, and there is also a paid public parkade located within a short walking distance from the clinic. Please check local signage for parking restrictions and time limits.

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

A Physiothérapeute in Quebec has completed a master's level university education, allowing them to assess patients, make diagnoses, and develop comprehensive treatment plans independently. They can perform advanced procedures within their scope of practice. A Technologue en physiothérapie holds a college diploma (DEC) and plays a vital role in implementing treatment plans, assisting with exercises, applying modalities, and reporting progress under the supervision of a physiotherapist or physician.

What are Tiffany Taylor Physiothérapie Sportif & Périnéale's operating hours?

Our clinic is typically open Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Some practitioners also offer Saturday appointments from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Hours can vary depending on the practitioner and day. Please contact the clinic at (xxx) xxx-xxxx or visit our website for the most current schedule and practitioner availability.

What is manual therapy in physiotherapy?

Manual therapy involves hands-on techniques used by physiotherapists to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction. This includes joint mobilizations, joint manipulations (performed with your consent and within scope), soft tissue mobilizations such as massage and myofascial release, and neural mobilizations. The goal is to reduce pain, restore joint and tissue function, improve mobility, and decrease muscle tension.
