Report
Ive seen Ryan for a few issues over the past two years. Most recently I was in to see Ryan for a painful lower back strain. He helped my recovery with a combination of deep muscle massage, acupuncture, heat and an exercise plan. He has a great personality and a wealth of knowledge. Hes easy to talk to and I never feel rushed. I feel that Im in good hands with Ryan and I trust his insight and judgement.
Prior to this issue, Ive seen Ryan for other muscle strains and tightness unrelated to my back and have experienced similar successful results. I highly recommend Ryan and the staff at River East Physiotherapy.

Report
I visited Alex at the clinic last week with a very uncomfortable case of vertigo. I underwent a number of procedures and left feeling much better, with my symptoms reduced and a number of exercises to do for three days. I returned for a second and final treatment today, which included assessment and treatment. I cant believe the difference and how much better I feel. Alex was professional, empathetic and thorough. I am so grateful.
