Frequently Asked Questions About Athletic Therapy
Is Athletic Therapy only for athletes?
No. While Athletic Therapists specialize in sports injuries, we treat people of all ages and activity levels—from youth and recreational athletes to workers recovering from job-related strains and older adults post-surgery. If you have a musculoskeletal injury, we can help.
What conditions do Athletic Therapists treat?
We treat sprains (ankle, knee, wrist), strains (hamstring, groin, calf), tendon pain (Achilles, tennis elbow), back and neck injuries, post-operative rehabilitation (ACL, meniscus, rotator cuff), concussion management, and return-to-activity programs after injury or surgery.
Do I need a referral to see an Athletic Therapist?
No referral is required to book an Athletic Therapy appointment. However, some insurance providers may request a doctor's note or prescription for reimbursement—check your policy details.
Is Athletic Therapy covered by insurance?
Many private insurance plans in Quebec cover Athletic Therapy. We provide detailed receipts for claims and offer direct billing to most insurers. Contact your provider or call us at 438-792-1200 to confirm coverage.
What should I wear and bring to my Athletic Therapy appointment?
Wear athletic clothing you can move comfortably in (shorts, t-shirt, sports bra if applicable). Bring your insurance details, any medical reports or imaging, and your athletic footwear if we're doing sport-specific testing.
How fast will I see results with Athletic Therapy?
Recovery timelines vary by injury type, severity, and your goals. Acute injuries (like ankle sprains) may show improvement in 2-4 weeks, while post-surgical rehabilitation can take 3-6 months. After your assessment, your Athletic Therapist will outline expected milestones and progress checkpoints.
What's the difference between Athletic Therapy and Physiotherapy?
Both professions treat musculoskeletal injuries, but Athletic Therapists specialize in on-field emergency care, sports-specific rehabilitation, and structured return-to-play protocols. Physiotherapists cover a broader scope including neurological and cardiorespiratory conditions. Many clients benefit from both—our clinic offers both services under one roof.
Can you provide on-field or event coverage for our team?
Yes. We provide Athletic Therapy coverage for tournaments, leagues, and events across the West Island and Montreal. Contact reception at 438-792-1200 with your dates, sport, and location to discuss options and availability.
What happens at my first Athletic Therapy appointment?
Your first visit includes a detailed injury history and movement assessment, goal setting, hands-on evaluation of strength and mobility, a clear treatment plan with timelines, and your first treatment session with exercises to start immediately.
How long are Athletic Therapy appointments?
Initial assessments are 60 minutes. Follow-up treatments are typically 30-45 minutes, depending on your treatment plan and progress.
Do you offer direct billing to insurance?
Yes. We offer direct billing to most private insurance plans in Quebec. Bring your insurance card to your first appointment, and we'll handle the billing for you.
Can I see an Athletic Therapist if I'm not currently injured?
Absolutely. We offer injury prevention assessments, movement screenings, and prehabilitation programs for athletes looking to reduce injury risk and optimize performance. Contact us to discuss your goals.
