Not Sure Where to Start?

You don't have to pick a treatment before you book. Kayla starts by listening and checking how you move, then suggests what fits, and she can combine treatments in the same visit. Needling is never required, and you can say no to anything at any point.

Education Is Part of Every Treatment

What you do between visits counts too, so Kayla teaches as she treats. Along with the treatments above, a session can include:

  • Movement and strength coaching: exercises and coaching that target the patterns behind your pain, not just the sore spot
  • Breathing and calming techniques: simple tools to help a stressed nervous system settle, so tight muscles can ease
  • Plain-language explanations of what Kayla finds and why
  • How pain and the nervous system work
  • A short plan for home, adjusted as you improve

The Details: Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral?

No. In British Columbia, you can book a physiotherapist like Kayla Larsen without a doctor's referral. Some insurance plans want a referral before they pay you back, so check your plan first.

How much does it cost, and are all the treatments included?

A session with Kayla Larsen costs $185 for 50 minutes. The fee covers the methods that suit you that day, such as manual therapy, myofascial release, acupuncture, IMS, movement coaching and breathing techniques. There is no extra charge for any of them.

Which treatment will I get?

Kayla picks from several methods based on what she finds, so you will not get the same routine every visit. She can combine several in one 50-minute visit, and you can say no to any of them.

Is it covered by insurance?

Treatments are billed as physiotherapy, so they appear on your receipt as physiotherapy, not as separate services. Many extended health plans cover physiotherapy, but it depends on your plan. Kayla does not bill insurers directly, so you pay at your visit and send the receipt to your insurer.
