Frequently Asked Questions
The information here is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Consult a licensed healthcare provider about your specific situation.
Do I need a doctor's referral to see a physiotherapist in Cochrane?
In most Canadian provinces, you can see a physiotherapist without a referral. However, some insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for coverage. Check with your provider.
How much does physiotherapy cost in Cochrane?
A typical session costs $80-$150 depending on the clinic and province. Many employer health plans cover physiotherapy. Some provinces cover physio through their health plan for specific conditions.
What's the difference between a physiotherapist and a chiropractor?
Physiotherapists focus on exercise-based rehabilitation, manual therapy, and movement retraining. Chiropractors primarily focus on spinal adjustments. Many conditions benefit from both — your physio can advise if you'd benefit from chiropractic care too.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on your condition. Acute injuries may resolve in 4-6 sessions. Chronic conditions or post-surgical rehab may need 12-20+ sessions. Your physiotherapist will create a treatment plan after your initial assessment.
Is physiotherapy covered by OHIP/provincial health insurance?
Coverage varies by province. Ontario (OHIP) covers physio only for those 19 and under, 65+, or recently discharged from hospital. Most Canadians access physio through employer benefits or pay out of pocket.
