Excellent Therapists and Staff! It has been seven years since I initially came to see Russell with a very painful lower back due to a bulging disk. I had tried a variety of treatments in the past which had all helped a bit - but they had all left me back where I started after treatment was completed. It took more than a year of treatment, but at the end of it I was pain free! And with the maintenance plan that Russell recommended, I am still pain free today! Thank you Russell - you and your team have made all the difference! Linda B.
Russell is a terrific physiotherapist. He took my frozen shoulder one fall and had me doing the crawl by the time summer rolled around - never had so much as a twinge in it since. I recommend him to all my friends with joint and muscle issues.
On my first visit they tried to sell me an overpriced menthol rub as a treatment for my strain not science-based treatment!. My regular $75 appointment consisted of 20 minutes of massage, 10 minutes of ultra sound not science-based treatment! and 10 minutes of sitting with an ice pack not a treatment, more a pain management tool. I had 6 appointments and almost no improvement. Quick googling will tell you that muscle strain recovery must include a great variety of stretches. Luckily I sought for the second opinion and found an amazing doctor at different clinic.
I’m not sure why there are some less than positive reviews here. Everything is very clean and tidy. Front desk staff very friendly and polite. Russell is very professional and a great therapist. I went to another physio clinic for a few months and the pain and discomfort I had never lessened. I have been coming here for a few weeks, twice a week and already the pain and issues I had for many months has greatly improved. Great physio clinic!
I began regularly training with Russel and Irene over two years ago in preparation for and rehabilitation from ACL reconstruction surgery. Russel has been extremely attentive to my training needs and has given me the challenges I seek in my recovery. I greatly appreciate the personalized approach that was taken in developing a high-intensity recovery plan to maximize my athletics training. Irene and Russel have been extremely supportive throughout my rehabilitation process and I am very happy with the level of expertise they have provided.
Russel Lang is very professional and pleasant, his office is always extremely clean but most of all, he is able to relieve my lower back pain using light touch and ultrasound therapy.
Things I wish I knew before going in: 1 It's quite hot and stuffy, even in a t-shirt. 2 No dividers: you have to request privacy there's a separate room for one person. By default you will be seen with whatever you had to take off by others and vice versa. Usually there're 2-3 other patients treated in parallel. 3 Getting a copy of your file is not easy, and expensive: a fee of $30 was made up after I asked for it. 4 I haven't had that many appointments, so I can't speak about the effectiveness. They seem professional. I felt rushed through my assessments but if they got all the info they needed, I guess it's fine; it's like a doctor's appointment.
They are a fantastic Physiotherapy Clinic! Strongly recommended!!
Place is not clean and physiotherapist very rude
