Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your first visit, from insurance and referrals to what to bring and what to expect.

Contact Us
No referral is needed to see our physiotherapists or chiropractors. You can request an appointment directly through our online form or by calling (403) 263-2225.
Yes! We direct bill most major insurance providers, including Blue Cross, Sun Life, Great-West Life, Manulife, and many others, for treatment and appointments. Custom braces and orthotics are medical products, so those are not direct billed. We provide the documentation and invoices for you to submit for reimbursement. Please bring your insurance card to your first appointment.
Yes, we accept Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) claims. Please contact us before your appointment so we can ensure the paperwork is in order.
Please bring a health card, your insurance information, any relevant X-rays or MRI results, and comfortable clothes that allow access to the area being treated.
Initial assessments are typically 45–60 minutes. Follow-up treatments are usually 30–45 minutes, depending on the service. Massage therapy sessions are 30, 45, or 60 minutes.
This varies depending on your condition, severity, and goals. Your clinician will give you a realistic estimate after your initial assessment and adjust as you progress.
We're at 639 5th Ave SW, Suite 130, Calgary, in the Plus 15 network, easily accessible from downtown. Paid street parking and nearby parkades are available on 5th Avenue and 6th Avenue.
Yes, we offer virtual appointments for exercise program review, follow-up consultations, and injury assessments where in-person evaluation is not required.
Sports physiotherapy is built around the specific demands of your activity, not a general rehab protocol. Instead of just reducing pain, your treatment plan targets the mechanics of your sport and a clear path back to full activity, whether that's skiing, hockey, motocross, or mountain biking.
Action Sports Clinic offers physiotherapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, and custom bracing all under one roof in downtown Calgary. Our practitioners work together on your recovery plan instead of treating you in isolation, so you're not coordinating between separate clinics.
Many extended health plans in Alberta cover custom knee bracing, though coverage amounts vary by provider and policy. Braces are medical products, so we do not direct bill for them. We provide the documentation and invoices you need to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Check the specifics of your policy, as some insurers require an additional prescription from a family doctor or surgeon to cover braces and other medical devices.
There's no fixed timeline. Readiness depends on strength, stability, and movement control, not just how much time has passed or whether you're pain-free. We use sport-specific testing to determine when you're actually ready, not just when you feel ready.
Yes. Our team includes Dr. Roger Menta, a Sports Specialist Chiropractor holding a Fellowship of the Royal College of Chiropractic Sports Sciences (Canada), FRCCSS(C). Sports chiropractic focuses on the specific demands of your activity, not just general spinal adjustments, so treatment is built around getting you back to your sport, not just out of pain.
