What To Expect

Recovery after an MVA isn’t one-size-fits-all — it’s a dynamic process that involves managing pain and restoring movement, strength and everyday function. That’s why we use a four-pillar approach to guide your rehabilitation journey: Soothe the Signal, Mobilize to Move, Fortify the Foundation, and Reclaim Your Routine. Each pillar represents a key phase of healing, and our team supports different aspects of your care depending on where you are in your recovery. Whether you’re just beginning or working towards full independence, this framework ensures a comprehensive, coordinated, and personalized path back to wellness. We recommend starting with physiotherapy to assess your readiness for other services. 

FAQs

Will I have to pay anything out of pocket?

We offer direct billing to ICBC, so you can skip the stress and focus on what matters most – your recovery. Most treatments are fully covered; however, a small user fee may apply for certain services — such as IMS or acupuncture provided as part of physiotherapy, or for 60-minute massage therapy sessions. (Please note: 45-minute massage sessions are fully covered with no additional fee.)

What services are covered under my ICBC claim?

Our clinic provides physiotherapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, and kinesiology services. In addition, counselling and acupuncture (provided by a registered acupuncturist) are also covered under your ICBC claim.

Do I need a doctor's referral for treatment?

A referral isn’t required to begin treatment. In many cases, you can start right away depending on the details of your ICBC claim. 

What if it’s been past 12 weeks and I haven’t started treatment with a healthcare provider?

Our team can request a single session for an initial assessment. If approved, this appointment will help us better understand your current needs, outline an appropriate care plan, and request any additional sessions as needed. 

What happens when my pre-approved sessions expire or run out but I need more?

If additional sessions are needed, your care team will submit the request on your behalf. Please be aware that final approval is determined by your adjuster.

I’m currently attending another clinic but would like to switch to yours. Is that possible?

Yes, that is possible. Please provide us with your claim number, and we will contact your adjuster to review your sessions and services so we can coordinate your care seamlessly. 

May I see more than one healthcare provider at the same time?

Absolutely! You’re not limited to just one type of provider. In fact, a collaborative approach is often beneficial — many clients experience better outcomes when they work with a team of professionals across different disciplines. 

Why Choose Us For Your ICBC Treaments?

At Collingwood Physiotherapy, we are specialists in ICBC physiotherapy in Vancouver. We coordinate directly with ICBC so you can focus on your recovery—not the paperwork. With pre-approved session support, direct billing to ICBC, and a multidisciplinary team (physio, massage, chiropractic), we serve Vancouver drivers, passengers and cyclists who’ve been in an MVA.

I first started going to this clinic after seeing a recommendation in a Facebook group called Vancouver Girls Ask. I absolutely love this place. It’s clean, organized, and welcoming. The reception team is always kind and helpful. Their website is well organized too, which makes booking and managing appointments easy. The location is also very convenient since it’s literally right across from the SkyTrain station. I do physiotherapy with Simeon. From the very beginning, he has been extremely honest, attentive, and careful with me. I can be very conscious of my body, my form, and whether I’m doing things correctly, but with his guidance, I feel calm, strong, and taken care of. For massages, I see Jared, and I love how he keeps every session innovative and personalized. He always starts by asking what I would like to work on, and somehow I’m constantly discovering tiny muscles I didn’t even know existed 😂. Every session feels different and intentional, and I always leave feeling like we actually worked on what my body needed that day. Both Simeon and Jared are incredibly professional, friendly, and genuinely caring. My husband also gets his massages here with Tuan and has nothing but good things to say about his experience as well. One little tip if you’re someone like me who likes to book weekly appointments: book in advance! Especially once you know your work schedule, because their appointments can fill up quickly. Overall, I genuinely love coming here and feel very lucky to have found such a great clinic. Highly recommend! 💜

I really appreciate Simeon's patience and expertise. Having been injured before it was important to me that he took the time to hear about my past injuries and gave me a personalized treatment plan that worked for what I needed. Thank you to the team who made me feel comfortable and at ease! I definitely recommend checking them out!

I’ve been seeing Daisy for physio and IMS needling for several years now, and I can’t recommend her enough. She is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and skilled at what she does. She always takes the time to explain what she’s doing and why, and makes sure I fully understand the exercises and treatment plan.

Highly recommend Dr. Aimee Chen atCollingwood Physiotherapy! I've been seeing her for a workplace injury, and the fact that they do direct claims with WorkSafeBC makes the whole process so easy. Dr. Amy is a wonderful listener, asks great questions, and constantly updates your treatment plan based on how you're recovering week by week. The exercise videos she sends for home care are incredibly helpful and easy to follow. Excellent, attentive service-I will definitely keep coming back here!
