Virtual Appointments
Looking for online physio in the comfort of your own home? Virtual Physiotherapy Tele-Rehabilitation appointments may be for you! You’ll be able to continue to heal, move, and live your best life! Learn more below!
What is Online Rehabilitation/Telehealth?
We have decided that the most responsible way to support you and everyone in our community is to change the way we deliver healthcare. Continuity of care is really important to us. Online rehabilitation is a unique way to deliver services when an in person visit is not possible. By transitioning our services online you will still have access to care from our Registered Physiotherapists. Telehealth and online rehabilitation visits are to meet the same standards of practice set out by the College of Physiotherapists of BC regardless of the method of service delivery.
BENEFITS
Continued Treatment
Meaningful Support
Educated Advice
WHAT TO EXPECT

ICBC UPDATE
ICBC has also agreed to cover both Online Physiotherapy and Active Rehab sessions in full at no cost to the patient
PRIVACY
Our online telehealth platform is HIPAA compliant. Each online appointment is encrypted, anonymous, and never recorded or stored.
Most of the concern around telehealth and online rehabilitation service delivery is the security of your personal information.
Physiotherapists are required by the College of Physical Therapists of BC to ensure the privacy and security of your personal information at all times and will document your visit in your chart as they usually would in an in-person session.
LIMITATIONS
Online rehabilitation/telehealth has obvious limitations when compared to an in-person visit. The limitations include inability to perform hands-on examination, assessment and treatment. In a discussion with your physiotherapist, you both can decide together if an online rehabilitation visit is appropriate based on your individual circumstances.
FEES
There is no fee for Virtual ICBC visits.
