If you have extended health benefits through work, then you likely can use them with us. Depending on the service and the specifics of your work’s plan, your benefits may cover some or all of your treatment or products at GPFT.
Massage, Physio, Chiro and Athletic Therapy are often part of health plans. Some bracing (off-the-shelf or custom) and compression wear might also be covered, but you may need a Doctor’s prescription to provide to your insurance provider.
If you’re ever unsure, bring your benefits card (or benefits package) with you to your free discovery appointment and we can help you figure it out!
Personal training is not often covered, but some workplaces now offer a health spending account that can be used for things like training and gym memberships. If this is the case, we will provide you with all documentation needed to access it!
Massage Therapy & Athletic Therapy are covered by many extended health care programs, click here for more information. Extended health care benefits often cover the cost of compression socks, custom knee braces, and off the shelf braces.
We are able to, with your permission, make fax requests to your Doctor (for example, we can contact your Doctor with our bracing assessment and recommendations to streamline obtaining an Rx for your insurance provider).
All rehab programs include exercise and access to a gym may enhance or speed up results. Membership at the gym is very affordable and does not require a long term contract or commitment. Please visit PRICING PAGE for more info.
When you book an appointment you will be asked to fill out intake forms online. The forms can be filled out at your appointment, although they can be time-consuming and take time away from your assessment. If you have any questions about your forms, please discuss with your therapist at your appointment.
All forms and booking information are stored on a secure Canadian server and are kept completely confidential according to Canada and Ontario law.
If you have any written reports or other information from your doctor or other healthcare professionals, please bring that to your appointment.
Some services at Guelph Performance are eligible for direct billing to your insurance company. Please contact us to see if you qualify. If not, you will be provided with a full receipt after payment that you can submit for reimbursement.
Parents are invited to accompany their children during their appointments unless the client requests privacy.
Many of our training clients are individuals that hurt themselves, are rehabbing an injury, or are scared to exercise on their own out of fear of reinjuring.
Many clients work with their therapist and make a gradual hand-off to a trainer once their exercises have progressed from healing and strengthening and are ready for the next step!
New clients with an injury or weakness usually begin with an assessment with a therapist to allow modifications to their exercise programming before you get into trouble.
Injury recovery and prevention is our priority!
We also are not able to bill your car insurance company directly, but can submit the claim on your behalf after you have paid for your treatment.
