Calgary Physiotherapy: In Home Service

In terms of private clinic options, over 180 physiotherapy clinics exist across Calgary, making this the dominant method of care for most patients. When browsing clinics, Calgarians should start with focusing on the few physiotherapists near you and see if they meet your criteria. Across Calgary, there are less than 20 clinics that boast a 4.5 stars or higher average review (make sure to check that the posters are real profiles). With regards to pricing, an hour-long session at most clinics range from $80-$125 and the vast majority of patients use their extended health benefits plan to help pay for services. Some offer direct billing to your insurance provider, while others ask for upfront payment first and issue you a receipt to submit for reimbursement after. When selecting clinics, don’t forget the hidden costs of travelling back-and-forth per each session, which may be too painful and inconvenient for patients trying to recover from trauma, surgery or chronic conditions.

Few of these physiotherapy clinics in Calgary have contracts with Alberta Health Services. These are typically the large chains that process high volumes of patients each year. Note that only certain conditions/injuries can be treated using this option, such as severe accidents and specific post-surgical cases. Last reported, patients may get up to 7 sessions from AHS covered here. While this sounds like an ideal option, consider the drawbacks of being waitlisted (potentially months), having a limited selection of providers, and receiving mass-market care designed to process patients under limited public resources. Often, priority will trickle down to applicants who prove to be disadvantaged and unable to access other forms of care.
