FAQs — Occupational Therapy Clinics in Canada
What does an Occupational Therapist treat?
OTs treat hand and upper limb injuries, repetitive strain injuries, work-related injuries, concussion and cognitive rehabilitation, chronic pain, and conditions affecting daily function. In sports clinics, they focus on returning patients to sport, work, and leisure activities.
Is occupational therapy covered by extended health insurance?
Yes, most extended health plans cover occupational therapy. Annual limits vary but typically range from $300 to $1,000 per year. Some plans require a physician referral for coverage — check your benefits.
How is occupational therapy different from physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy focuses primarily on physical rehabilitation of muscles, joints, and movement patterns. Occupational therapy focuses on restoring the ability to perform meaningful activities — including work, sport, and self-care. The two professions often work together in sports clinics.
Can an OT help with work-related injuries?
Absolutely. OTs specialize in work hardening programs, functional capacity evaluations, ergonomic assessments, and return-to-work planning. They are often involved in WSIB-funded programs in Ontario and equivalent programs in other provinces.
Do I need a referral to see an Occupational Therapist?
Many OTs accept self-referrals, but your insurance plan may require a physician referral for coverage. Contact the clinic directly to confirm their intake process.
Can an OT help with concussion recovery?
Yes. OTs play an important role in post-concussion rehabilitation, helping patients manage cognitive fatigue, return to work gradually, and adapt strategies for daily activities and screen time during recovery.
