Whether you’re a construction worker in Waterloo, a healthcare aide in Cambridge, or an office employee in Kitchener, workplace injuries can disrupt your health, your job, and your life. Fortunately, Ontario’s WSIB (Workplace Safety and Insurance Board) program provides coverage for Chiropractic care to help you recover and return to work.
At Fairway Chiropractic Centre in Kitchener, we proudly serve the Kitchener-Waterloo and Cambridge regions, helping injured workers heal from musculoskeletal injuries with safe, effective, and drug-free Chiropractic treatment.
What Is WSIB?
The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) is Ontario’s workers’ compensation system. It provides coverage for healthcare services, including Chiropractic care, for individuals who are injured on the job or develop work-related health conditions.
If you’re hurt at work, WSIB may cover your Chiropractic visits at 100%, with no referral required from a medical doctor.
Fairway Chiropractic Centre is a WSIB-approved clinic in Kitchener, equipped to support you through every step of your recovery process.
