At LiquidGym we treat a wide variety of Neurological conditions, which can arise from problems with the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves.

Due to the complexities of neurological conditions, patients can often have a variety of symptoms. These may be muscle stiffness or spasm, weakness of muscles, tremor, problems with sensation, poor balance, mobility issues and pain.

These symptoms can lead to challenges with your everyday activities such as being able to work, walking, getting dressed and feeding.

Our trained physiotherapists will complete a thorough neurological assessment and design treatment/management plan just for you to help improve your overall quality of life.

WHY HYDROTHERAPY MAYBE AN OPTION

Water immersion allows patients to perform movements they may be unable to perform on land. Exercises can be performed with greater ease and less pain due to the buoyancy created by the water.

The upward force of buoyancy counter balances the negative downward effects of gravity and greatly decreases the impact forces that your body is subjected to in traditional land therapy sessions.

When standing chest deep in water your body weight is reduced by 80%. Therefore, an individual weighing 200lbs on land only weighs 40lbs in the water and the ability to safely perform exercise therapy is greatly enhanced.

Specialized Land Equipment

  • Leg Power Press

Do I need a physician’s referral?

Physiotherapists are primary health care practitioners and therefore offer direct access to physiotherapy services without the need for a physician’s referral. Some extended health insurance plans require a physician’s referral; however, please check your insurance plan if in doubt.

Can you bill directly to my insurance company?

Some extended health insurance companies currently accept direct billing from Physiotherapy clinics. Ask and we can let you know if your insurance company accepts direct billing from LiquidGym.

Does LiquidGym accept Motor Vehicle Accident claims?

No. As of September 1, 2021 we no longer submit nor bill for MVA claims. LiquidGym can, however, treat MVA injuries. You just need to pay our standard therapy rates at the time of your appointment.

Do you direct bill for Veterans Affairs, RCMP, and Canadian Forces?

Yes. If you have Blue Cross coverage through either Veterans Affairs, RCMP, or Canadian Forces, we can bill directly with Blue Cross. To proceed, we require your ID number and the contact information of your case manager, if applicable.

Many patients pay out-of-pocket for physiotherapy. At LiquidGym we respect your dollar by providing only one-on-one appointments with your physiotherapist. We do not double-book clients, nor do we provide your treatment through support personnel. In addition to your on-site treatment, if appropriate, the physiotherapist will provide a self-managed home care treatment program to facilitate your recovery

No, LiquidGym is not an OHIP designated clinic.

When you cancel your appointment, please inform office staff why you are canceling. This information will be passed along to your therapist.
