While Athletic Therapy is not currently listed as a medical expense, services from certain licensed practitioners are eligible. If you received treatment from a massage therapist, for example, you may be able to claim that expense.

The list of eligible practitioners (by province) can be found here: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/individuals/topics/about-your-tax-return/tax-re...
