Don’t take our word for it – here’s what our clients say:
Happy Clients
I saw Leo, one of the physiotherapists working at this clinic, and was very happy with the care. I’m an aging athlete with many years of accumulating injuries and pushing my body. Leo was able to give me a better understanding of the injury I went to see him about and gave me excellent guidelines on how to get back to training. Very knowledgeable and very good at communicating that knowledge to others. I’m picky about who I hire to help me with my injuries and I’ll be back to see Leo next time I need one.
Greg L.
Always amazing! Expert knowledge on how to heal all my physical injuries as well as strengthen weaker areas through optimized exercises and posture. Relieved intense pain that the doctor could not.
Steve B.
