5 out of 5 starsDealing with chronic back pain, neck pain, and shoulder issues made daily activities difficult, but the team at the MedRehab Newmarket clinic made a world of difference. They created a complete care plan combining chiropractic treatment, physiotherapy, massage therapy, TENS, and laser therapy for lasting relief. They also offered great help and assistance to acquire helpful eligible devices—like a neck massager, heating pad, and ergonomic backrest for my chair—that were covered by my insurance plan. The clinic is welcoming, very clean, and the staff is always dedicated and on time!

5 out of 5 starsI came to Medrehab Group in Newmarket after suffering from severe shoulder, neck, and lower back pain, and the care here has been fantastic. The team created a clear, tailored treatment plan using physiotherapy, chiropractic care, laser therapy, TENS, massage techniques, and manual hands-on therapy that helped relieve my persistent pain much faster than expected. Everyone is warm, professional, and genuinely invested in getting you back to living comfortably. Highly recommend them to anyone needing quality care!

Elizabeth always cooperate in finding time slots that best suites for patients. My physio therapists Reemal and jacquie are helping me to get out of my back pain by providing required treatment. Thanks so much everyone for helping me. It is a great experience for services I am getting from you guys. Thank you so much.

5 out of 5 starsI was referred here after my MVA. Liz was such a comforting person. I wasn’t sure with how sore I was how it would be but Jackie definitely took her time to listen and make sure I was comfortable. Customer service at its finest which is becoming hard to find these days. I would definitely recommend here

Acupuncture on Green Lane
Welcome to Green Lane. Our Newmarket clinic is at 181 Green Lane East, Unit 2, just east of Yonge Street on the East Gwillimbury side and a couple of minutes from Upper Canada Mall. Ying Wei is the registered acupuncturist here. She is also the clinic’s Registered Massage Therapist, and acupuncture is offered on selected days by appointment rather than as a daily service, so the first step is a phone call or the request form and the front desk will tell you when she is next in.
New to this treatment? Acupuncture treatment, safety and insurance.
A physiotherapy clinic first
Most of what happens at this clinic is physiotherapy and chiropractic, with Dr. Daniella Astorino as the chiropractor, and acupuncture is usually added to that rather than standing alone: someone six weeks into rehabilitation for a back injury whose pain is slowing the exercise program, or a Newmarket commuter with headaches that the neck work has helped but not finished. That is a good way to use it. If you want acupuncture in its own right for something unrelated to a physical injury, you are welcome too; just say so when you book so enough time is set aside.
What we treat with acupuncture in Newmarket
Ying Wei practises within traditional Chinese medicine, which covers a good deal more than sore backs:
- Neck, back and shoulder pain, sciatica and long-standing whiplash
- Migraine and tension-type headaches
- Knee, hip and hand osteoarthritis
- Tendon injuries that will not settle: elbow, rotator cuff, Achilles, plantar fasciitis
- Stress, low mood and poor sleep
- Nausea, indigestion and bowel complaints
- Menstrual pain, menopause symptoms and support alongside fertility care
- Allergies, sinus congestion and post-viral fatigue
- Injuries from a collision under auto insurance accident benefits, and work injuries under the WSIB program of care
Honesty about the evidence matters to us: it is strongest for chronic pain, headaches and knee arthritis, fair for nausea and some sleep and stress problems, and thinner for the rest. You will hear that before, not after, you commit to a course.
The first appointment
About an hour. A history that ranges wider than the sore spot, then an examination, then treatment with sterile single-use needles about the thickness of a hair, left in place for 20 to 30 minutes while you rest. Cupping is added when it suits. You should feel a dull ache or warmth, not sharp pain, and most people leave calmer than they arrived. A course is usually four to eight sessions and, because her days here are limited, we plan the dates with you at the first visit so the course does not drift.
Coverage
Most workplace benefit plans cover acupuncture from a registered acupuncturist, sometimes sharing a limit with massage, and we bill the insurer directly where the plan allows. OHIP does not cover it. Accident benefits and WSIB cover it when it is part of an approved treatment plan.
Questions we hear in Newmarket
What are your hours? Monday and Tuesday 10am to 6pm, Wednesday 9am to 7pm, Thursday 11am to 7pm, Friday 9am to 5pm, closed weekends. Acupuncture is on selected days only; ask when you book.
I need weekly sessions on a fixed day. Is that possible here? Sometimes, depending on Ying Wei’s schedule. If not, our Woodbridge clinic on Weston Road runs a full acupuncture day every Wednesday, and your notes travel with you.
Can I combine acupuncture with massage? Yes, with the same practitioner in the same appointment.
Does it hurt? Very little. Anything sharp is adjusted straight away.
Do I need a referral? No. Some insurers want a doctor’s note; check your plan.
Where do I park? Free parking at the plaza; we are Unit 2. Viva Blue and YRT buses on Yonge stop at Green Lane, a short walk away.
