Frequently asked questions
What is the benefit of seeing a provider who is both a Chiropractor and an Athletic Therapist?
Seeing a dual-credentialed professional like Dr. Notley means you get a more comprehensive recovery plan. While chiropractic care focuses on joint mobility and immediate pain relief through spinal manipulation, Athletic Therapy focuses on the rehabilitation of muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
By integrating both, we don’t just “fix the click”—we strengthen the surrounding tissues to prevent the injury from returning.
Do I need a doctor’s referral for Chiropractic or Athletic Therapy in Winnipeg?
No, you do not need a referral from a medical doctor to see a Chiropractor or an Athletic Therapist in Manitoba. Both are primary healthcare providers, meaning you can book an appointment directly.
This is true for private patients as well as those seeking care through MPI (Manitoba Public Insurance) or WCB (Workers Compensation Board).
Does MPI or WCB cover the cost of my treatment?
Yes. If you have been injured in a car accident or at work, your treatments are typically covered, to a point. For MPI claims, we bill them directly for chiropractic and athletic therapy services related to your accident, meaning there is often no out-of-pocket cost for you.
For WCB claims, once you have a claim number, we can provide the necessary assessments and reports to help facilitate your recovery and return to work.
