ICBC Physiotherapy Services

Physiotherapists can help find the root cause of pains and aches, stiffness, and newfound limitations in motion and design a physiotherapy program to help get you back to your day-to-day activities.

ICBC physiotherapy is not a magic cure for all injuries and it requires work, but certain exercises, stretches, and therapies can help alleviate your pain and reduce it over time, making your daily life more manageable. 

While some surgeries post-accident may be inevitable depending on the severity of your injuries, a well-tailored physiotherapy regimen can help heal tears and strains that would have required surgery before a physiotherapist’s intervention.

It’s normal to lose some ability when injured. Muscle stiffness, pains, strains, and pains can impair your body’s normal functions, and delaying treatment only makes those issues worse. With the help of ICBC physiotherapy, you may be able to return to your pre-accident range of motion and see little-to-no after-effects from the motor vehicle accident in which you were involved.

Rehabilitating injuries is a time-sensitive issue. An improperly handled injury can lead to poor healing and complications down the line. With a physiotherapist’s assistance in your recovery, you increase your chances of healing well and avoid complications associated with delayed healing.

You must file a claim with ICBC. Where fault lies in the accident does not matter; if you were injured in a motor vehicle accident, you qualify, even if you were a cyclist or pedestrian.

Once you have filed your claim with ICBC, you can start any treatment under ICBC’s pre-approved treatment list. You then have 3 months to start and complete your treatment plan. The quicker you seek out a physiotherapist, the bigger the benefits as you will be able to complete more visits and address any issues as soon as possible. 

25 sessions of a minimum of 20 minutes are covered. 

Because Back in Motion offers direct billing to ICBC, you will incur no out-of-pocket cost when seeking physiotherapy under your pre-approved treatment costs. If you seek longer appointments than those covered by ICBC, you will need to pay the difference, but Back in Motion can provide you with receipts to submit to your private insurance provider.

When booking an appointment, you will need your personal health number (PNH) and your ICBC claim number.
