I just had an awesome session with Jennifer MacPherson at West 4th Physio. She was able to diagnose my shoulder issues within minutes. She told me what would happen if we let it get worse and not treat it. A tendon tear? No thanks!!! She then gave me IMS… intra muscular stimulation. Essentially, locating each bit of muscle that had spasmed, holding it, then sticking acupuncture-like needles deep into it, causing the muscle to grab at the needle and then fully release. Jen also demonstrated a couple of exercises I need to do, then emailed me video instructions & schematics. I’m impressed! Service was professional, friendly, quick and efficient. Best yet, this gives me an out so that I don’t have to do any more push-ups or bearcrawls for a while(over-compression of the shoulder joint/muscles/tendons).

Went to west 4th to treat my back after a car accident. I found the clinic online and was close to home, and the prices were reasonable based on the website so I booked my first consultation. First session was good. I was booked with Marj who came across as very knowledgeable and had me feeling better even after just the first session. Minor discrepancy with pricing at first but all issues were resolved professionally by the staff at the clinic. Looking forward to continued treatment at this friendly neighbourhood clinic.
