Meridian Spine + Sport

Many extended health insurance plans are accepted, and the clinic can often direct bill on your behalf for physiotherapy, chiropractic, massage therapy, and other covered services. It's best to confirm your specific plan's coverage and direct billing eligibility with the front desk before your first visit.

In Ontario, you do not need a physician's referral to see a physiotherapist, chiropractor, massage therapist, or athletic therapist at Meridian Spine + Sport. However, some extended health insurance plans require a referral for reimbursement, so it's worth checking with your provider beforehand.

The team treats a wide range of concerns, including sports injuries, back and neck pain, joint and muscle dysfunction, post-surgical rehabilitation, tendon and ligament injuries, chronic pain, and pelvic floor issues. Treatment plans are tailored using physiotherapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, dry needling, acupuncture, shockwave therapy, and custom orthotics as needed.

Your first visit includes a comprehensive assessment where your practitioner will review your health history, lifestyle, and specific goals before performing relevant physical or orthopedic testing. From there, they'll discuss findings with you and collaboratively build a personalized treatment plan focused on relieving symptoms and restoring function.

Physiotherapy sessions typically begin with an orthopedic assessment to identify the root cause of pain or movement limitations, followed by hands-on treatment and an individualized exercise rehabilitation program. Depending on your needs, your physiotherapist may also incorporate dry needling, shockwave therapy, Bioflex laser therapy, or pelvic floor physiotherapy to support recovery and long-term performance.
