Q: What should I wear to an appointment?

Be comfy! Generally it is best to wear comfortable loose fitting clothing that won't restrict your movement. Osteopathic Manual Therapists in Alberta do not complete internal techniques. All treatments are completed with you fully dressed. It is helpful to wear shorts if you have a knee/leg injury, but we can always work around the clothing you have on.

Q: Do you work with WCB or MVA claims?

At this time we do not work with WCB Claims. While our clinic does not offer direct billing for MVA claims you can contact us to discuss your situation and learn about how we can support you.

Q: Do I need a doctors referral to have osteopathic treatment?

You do not need a referral from your doctor to see an Osteopathic Manual Therapist. If you have a medical condition you are concerned about it is a good idea to consult with your physician prior to booking an appointment.

“I cannot give enough praise to the team at Prairie Therapy — always warm, welcoming, and professional. Highly recommend Christine for pre- and post-natal Osteopathy. She is a wealth of knowledge and experience, it shows with how in-depth her questions are while having so much compassion and empathy. Seeing her definitely put me at ease during my pregnancy journey. I also took my little one to her immediately after birth to ensure everything was in alignment and functioning well — Christine was so gentle and absolutely lovely with my daughter, I knew she was in great hands. Such a great experience for a new mother, thank you!”

“The team at Prairie Therapy are an amazing group. From booking the first assessment to the follow-up appointments, their system is so user-friendly with either bookings online or with the front desk. Everyone is super friendly and helpful, and I am so happy to have the use of my shoulder back. I have and would highly recommend Christine Dixon.”
