Review
"Rebecca Chambers was incredible! I was treated with acupuncture for a shoulder injury and within 1 treatment my range of motion had doubled. After two treatments, I had full mobility! She was professional, thorough, clearly experienced and really listened as I explained my injury and concerns. She ran through exercises to do, and to which to avoid between and after treatments...."

Review
"After searching around to begin therapy post surgery, I found Athletes Care. I am glad I did! I cannot begin to say how great my care was at the Hamilton location! From Kelly at reception, who made booking my appointments smooth and easy, to Rebecca my physiotherapist. I found Athletes Care a place where you feeling better, was their main concern. Rebecca took her time explaining everything, making sure I understood each exercise. She would go through the progress reports with me. I felt included. I would highly recommend their services, and will definitely return if needed. Thanks for giving me my mobility back!" F.J

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I'm not covered by insurance?
Some patients do pay out-of-pocket for physiotherapy. We accept most major credit cards, debit, and cash. We provide only the therapy you need, and we will empower you to supplement your in-clinic care with a home care program.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
If you plan on having insurance cover your treatments, bring your insurance information and we can look into whether direct billing for physiotherapy is an option with your insurance provider. Bring your referral or doctor's note, if you have one. Wear comfortable, loose fitting clothing.
What happens on my first visit?
You will be thoroughly assessed by a Registered
Physiotherapist. The physiotherapist will develop an appropriate treatment plan and get you started with treatment right away.
Is a doctor's referral necessary?
A doctor’s referral isn't necessary, but in rare cases, our physiotherapist may need you to see your doctor or a sports medicine physician to get further testing done. Note that some extended insurance may require doctor’s referral to get reimbursements for physiotherapy as well.
What shall I wear?
Comfortable, loose fitting clothing is suggested as specific areas in the body are subject for evaluation and treatment. For instance, if the issue is on you knee then it’s better to wear shorts or loose fitting pants that can be rolled up. A mask or face covering is required to be worn while in the clinic.
How many treatments do I need?
Number of treatments depends on your condition and the severity of your injury. Everyone responds differently to their type of treatment, but you will know on day 1, before you leave, what is suggested.
Athlete's Care is home to all your
physiotherapy and sports medicine needs.
