Are treatments covered by OHIP?
Back in Motion is a private physiotherapy clinic, and therefore not eligible to bill under OHIP.

Can Back in Motion submit expenses to my insurance carrier on my behalf?
Back in Motion will submit invoices to insurance carriers on behalf of our patients provided the insurance company will pay us directly. For all other plans the patient is invoiced directly and asked to submit to their carrier

Do I need a doctor's referral to make an appointment?
No, a doctor's referral is not required in order to come in for treatment.  Although, some insurance carriers require one before they will reimburse you for your visits.

What's the difference between a physiotherapist and a chiropractor?
A physiotherapist's primary focus is on the recovery of function through motion and exercise.  They may be able to help restore movement or reduce pain through a variety of techniques such as strengthening, stretching, modalities, joint mobilization, massage, neuromuscular facilitation, etc.  They cannot prescribe medication, and this is not their focus. While chiropractor's do treat other areas of the body, their main focus is on the spine.  They generally use a hands on approach, with occasional modalities such as electrical stimulation.  They also have a strong background in nutritional assessment and are able to prescribe medication to their patients.
