Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist at RelievePhysio?
No, a referral is not required to book an appointment with us. However, some insurance providers may require a doctor’s referral for reimbursement. We recommend checking with your benefits provider.
What conditions do you treat?
We treat a wide range of conditions including back and neck pain, sports injuries, joint sprains and strains, rotator cuff injuries, IT band syndrome, post-surgical rehab, and more. We also provide treatment for chronic pain and mobility issues.
What should I expect during my first visit?
During your initial appointment, your physiotherapist will perform a comprehensive assessment, discuss your health history, identify the root cause of your symptoms, and develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals.
How long is each physiotherapy session?
Initial assessments typically last 45–60 minutes. Follow-up sessions are generally 30–45 minutes, depending on your treatment plan and progress.
Do you offer direct billing to insurance providers?
Yes, we offer direct billing to most major insurance companies. Please bring your insurance details with you to your first appointment.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for movement and easy access to the area being treated. For example, wear shorts for knee or hip treatments and a tank top for shoulder or back issues.
The number of sessions depends on your specific condition, goals, and how your body responds to treatment. Your physiotherapist will discuss this with you after your initial assessment.
Physiotherapy is not typically covered under standard Alberta Health Care for private clinics. However, some coverage may be available through government-funded programs or extended health benefits.
Yes. Physiotherapy is often most effective when started early after injury or surgery. We’ll work with you to ensure your treatment is safe and appropriate for your recovery stage.
You can book an appointment by calling our clinic, visiting our website, or stopping by in person. Online booking is also available for your convenience.
