WCB Chiropractic Coverage in Alberta
Hurt on the job? WCB Alberta usually covers your rehab — and we handle the paperwork.
Workplace injuries don’t always arrive with a dramatic accident. Sometimes it’s one bad lift; other times it’s months of repetitive strain that finally catches up with you. Either way, if it happened at work in Alberta, WCB coverage usually means your treatment costs you nothing.
At our North Edmonton clinic we treat work injuries regularly and provide the documentation WCB Alberta needs — so your claim keeps moving and you’re not stuck filling out forms between appointments.
What WCB rehab covers
First: report the injury
The most important step after a work injury is to report it — to your employer and to WCB Alberta. Reporting promptly protects your claim and starts your benefits. Your employer files their report, you file a worker report, and WCB opens a claim with a claim number.
Once that claim number exists and treatment is approved, your rehab is covered and we can bill WCB directly.
What treatment looks like
Many work injuries — strained backs, necks, shoulders, repetitive strain, slip-and-fall trauma — respond well to conservative, hands-on care. Dr. Fayad assesses your injury, builds a treatment plan, and combines chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, and rehab exercises to get you moving again.
Throughout, we provide the progress documentation WCB requires so there are no gaps that stall your claim.
Getting back to work safely
The goal isn’t just to get you out of pain — it’s to get you back to your job without re-injuring yourself. That means a realistic return-to-work plan, coordination around modified duties where needed, and prevention guidance. Rushing back too early is one of the most common reasons work injuries turn chronic.
