Discover how our insured treatments can guide you toward a balanced and revitalized state after a workplace injury.
An injury is work-related when an event or exposure in the work environment caused or contributed to the injury or significantly aggravated a pre-existing injury. An injury could occur in your workplace, at a remote location, or anywhere else you are performing work for the benefit of your employer.
What do you need to do if you have been injured at work?

Depending on your injury, a corresponding program of care is available for you with approval from your caseworker:
Typically, treatment for a workplace injury reported to WSIB involves sessions twice a week over a period of 6 to 8 weeks. If our practitioner deems that you require additional treatment beyond this timeframe, they will communicate with WSIB to request an extension for your treatment plan. However, if no extension is approved, your treatment will conclude by the end of the 8th week.
We offer direct billing services to the majority of health insurance providers. Most of our services are eligible for coverage by these providers, which means they typically reimburse some or all of the fees. If you can't find a convenient appointment time, please feel free to contact us at 647-951-1114, and one of our team members will gladly help you.
