Chronic Conditions Program & Intern Services
Caring For Our Community
At Remedy Wellness Centre we are passionate about health, learning and our community. So we’ve come up with an idea that brings all of these things together. Our NEW Intern Services Program and Chronic Conditions Program! We often have new graduates of the allied healthcare professions join Remedy while they are between completing their educational training and writing their board exams to become certified in their profession. So we’ve come up with three tiers to this program, which we hope you will both enjoy and benefit from. Please tell your friends!
A referral from a medical doctor or from an official “society” is required to be approved for this program. Chronic Conditions include, but are not limited to:
- Arthritis
- Cancer (less than 1 year in remission)
- Chronic Pain
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Fibromyalgia
- Parkinson’s
You must be pre approved for this program with adequate documentation/referral from your primary medical care team, such as a doctors referral. Call to Book for Chronic Conditions Program, not available in online booking.
What if i have insurance?
If you have insurance coverage through your extended health benefits or ICBC, that should be used first at the regular rate charged by the practitioners. However, if your insurance only covers a portion, under this program you will never be billed out of pocket more than the Chronic Conditions rate. If your insurance is used up for the year, you only pay the Chronic Conditions rate.
Some of the practitioners participating in this program are fully registered and covered by insurance, some are interns, and therefore not covered by your insurance.
Treatments
Massage Intern (Not RMT)
While studying to become Registered Massage Therapists, students often join Remedy as Interns. These interns offer massage at a reduced rate for regular patients, and also participate in our Chronic Conditions Program.
These services are NOT covered by your extended health plan, as these INTERNS are NOT registered yet.
- Regular Treatment: $ 115.50/90mins, $100/75mins, $85/60 mins, $75/45mins, $60/30mins
- Chronic Conditions Program: $30/ 60 mins (Call to Book)
- No waitlist presently
You can still expect an excellent experience at a fraction of the regular cost. You will be helping this intern to continue to develop all of their skills including stream lining the patient interview process and their assessment skills, developing their hands on techniques and home care prescription. There are many layers to building a solid foundation for a successful practice and you can help these interns build theirs, while benefiting from their professional knowledge as a new graduate.

Counselling
Our Registered Clinical Counsellor is not a student, so her services do qualify for extended health benefits. However, the Chronic Conditions Program is meant to help members of our community who can’t afford counselling at the regular fee and/or don’t have extended health benefits. If this doesn’t sound like you, please book a regular appointment.
