We always have a staff member on duty who is dedicated to escorting patients to a private treatment room, ensuring rooms and equipment are cleaned and sanitized according to protocol. We accept e-transfer for payments to minimize interactions. 

All staff are wearing masks and barriers have been put in place at our administration desk. We are adhering to guidelines of provincial and federal public health authorities, as well as the Prince Edward Island colleges of physiotherapy, chiropractic and massage therapy.

No, a doctor's referral is not necessary to be treated by a therapist as they are a primary health care professional, just like your doctor or dentist.  However, many insurance companies require a written referral from a doctor before covering the expenses of your physiotherapy or massage therapy treatments. Most insurance companies do not require a referral if being treated by a chiropractor.
If you have a referral, please bring this to your appointment.

You will be required to fill out a medical questionnaire before your appointment pertaining to your current injury, past or current medical conditions, and medications. Your first appointment will last between 40 minutes and 1 hour, during which time your therapist will assess your injury and answer any questions you may have regarding healing time, treatment plan, etc.  You will be assigned exercises to be done at both The Physio Center and home, and may be informed of modifications you can make to your daily activities to avoid further injury.

You must file the proper paperwork and claim forms (found online at http://www.wcb.pe.ca):
- Employer Form (Form 7): Your employer will need to fill out the necessary forms and fax or mail them to the Workers Compensation Board office in Charlottetown.
- Employee Form (Form 6): You have to fill out a claim form and fax or mail it to the Worker's Compensation Board office in Charlottetown.
- Physician Form (Form 8): See your physician for a referral and a Workers Compensation Injury Report.

When all paperwork has been filed, contact WCB:
- Find out if you've been approved for Chiropractic treatments.
- If approved, call us to book your first appointment. Please have your case worker and case ID information if applicable.
If you are not approved at the time of your appointment, payment will be required from the individual.
