PREHAB Physio and Performance

A long-time back injury was flaring up and causing a great deal of pain. Justin identified and communicated a viable, achievable plan of physical therapy. With regular meeting and hard homework I saw improvements in a month, and pain resolution in two. I have continued to meet with Justin on a monthly basis to maintain and build strength in my back and core and hopefully prevent any further flare up. So far so good - a year without pain!

Excellent RMT, horrible administration. They will charge you half to just reschedule (not cancel) an appointment, even with close to 48 hours notice. Reason doesn’t matter, they’ll take half. They just lost two clients for their lack of compassion in dealing with a family with young children going through a medical crisis.

Justin helped me recover from an calf injury in 2019. He is very sincere and caring. His knowledge in sports injury and rehab is phenomenal. He explained in details about my injury, he set up goals (and achievable mini steps) and designed exercises and treatments both in clinic and at home. He educated me of the purposes of each treatment, spent lots of time eradicating/ fine tuning my posture and encouraged and supported me during this long and stressed time. He even designed one-on-one (and two-on-one) training sessions in real turf ground to boost my overall fitness before I returned to impact sports. I’m so grateful to have him and his team (Neil and Lawrence) as my treaters (and trainers). I had a complete recovery as well as an elevated strength for my sports performance. Big shout out to you guys.
Recently I returned to Justin for my posture and neck/upper back issues. I have complete confidence in them as I know I am in good hands!

Neil provided a great and detailed massage for neck and shoulders! Would recommend for anyone experiencing pain from desk-life!

Lawrence has been my RMT for a few months and I've been incredibly impressed. He has helped me more than any previous clinician that I have seen and I feel his knowledge is excellent. He gives me exercises to do at home and he is always very engaged in our sessions. Lawrence has excellent bedside manner. I have recommended him to my partner and friends. Thank you!

Justin and Neil are experts in what they do for my body and medical condition. Highly recommended!

Back in 2018 I had a devastating snowboarding injury where I crashed into a tree off a jump and dislocated my knee. I tore my ACL, MCL, PCL, and meniscus. This is an extremely rare and severe injury very few medical professionals have experience with, as only 0.02% of knee injuries are in this category. I was lucky to see Justin Li right after the accident and have been his client ever since. He's been absolutely the best physiotherapist, helping me recover from this injury and the subsequent surgery.

His approach is unique, in that he applies both sports strength training and physiotherapy treatments to help his patients heal from injuries, prepare for surgery, and rebuild the body post-surgery. His background working with professional athletes informs his multi-faceted approach to healing and managing pain.

In addition to his experience, he's a sympathetic listener and has a very patient personality. He's helped me learn how to walk again and regain my mobility. I'm back hiking challenging trails and cycling long distances. Currently we are in the phase of working towards returning me to snowboarding.

No matter how challenging the injury and pain, he will custom tailor a therapy program calibrated to his patients' needs. I can't recommend Justin Li as a therapist enough.

Came to Neil (RMT) to do an initial assessment. Neil is very knowledgeable, i've learned a lot about my body and what exercise i should do. I am very satisfied with the treatment i have received. Would highly recommend to anyone. Also i found the staff at Prehab very pleasant.

Was going to try them out but their receptionist is the most unprofessional and rude person I've ever dealt with. Beware. At first I thought that she was one of the therapists but they don't have any that are female on staff. The way she answered certain questions was vague to the point of being useless and she kept telling me to leave a message and that they'll get back to me. Avoid at all cost.

This place is awesome! After working from home for a few months, I developed wrist pain that made it difficult to type. I visited Justin and he was able to quickly identify what the underlying problem was. My first visit was on a Friday and I was back to work, typing as normal again, with zero pain, by Monday (my job involves a lot of typing).

I am terrified of needles but went back to have dry needling done two more times because of how effective it was. Justin was very helpful in chatting with me during the process so I could focus on other things to distract me from the needles.

I also particularly appreciate how he provides context for all of his recommendations. He does a good job of explaining the underlying cause and why certain exercises or procedures will help to fix it. He also worked with me to ensure he was recommending exercises that would be easy for me to do with whatever I already had at home.

I have been to other physiotherapists who see multiple patients at once however for all my appointments at PREHAB, Justin spent the full time treating my injury or showing me exercises to do.

Becky is super friendly and efficient. She had it all set-up before I arrived for my first appointment to bill directly to my insurer.

Today was my last appointment and I am very happy with my treatment. Would highly recommend!

I have worked with Justin, Max, Amanda and Neil since before PreHab opened and can confidently say that I would recommend all therapists to any friends & family. Very easy going and knowledgable interactions. They prioritize your needs and goals in every session!

I discovered PREHAB a year and a half ago, and Im so grateful that I did. I went to see Justin due to a car accident that caused a soft tissue injury to my leg. He was able to pinpoint the exact cause of my pain and created an effective workout plan for me to help strengthen my muscles, making necessary adjustments to ensure I can do them at home with ease. He also provided me with dry needling treatments that really helped loosen up the muscle tension in my leg. He was always extremely patient with me when teaching me new exercises, and is excellent at demonstrating how to do them in a way that was easy for me to understand. Justin Is incredibly skilled and passionate at what he does and I’m so appreciative of his expertise. He has helped me make a speedy recovery and regain my confidence, and I cannot thank him enough!

I also worked with Becky, the kinesiologist, on a workout program to further help me reach my goals and strengthen my body. She is very knowledgeable and talented in her field, and an overall lovely person.

I am now back again due to a back injury. I highly recommend the services here and would give them more than 5 stars if I could!

This was my first time in my life needing physio as I developed a lot of lower back pain due to sitting for long hours at work. I was pretty nervous to start because I had no idea what to expect. But it turns out I had nothing to be afraid of. The team there really care about helping you and guiding you towards your goal. I feel lifted up after each visit and a noticeable improvement in my back pain. I feel like the care is very individualized and they really pay attention to your needs! I would definitely recommend coming here.

Amazing job rehabbing my wife's triple ligament knee injury and fixed my back and neck from 20 years of computers!

I highly recommend Prehab physio. I have been seeing different physiotherapists for about 10 years, and Justin is hands down the best. Within a couple of sessions I had treatment plans for a couple of different injuries that had plagued me for many years, things that other therapists only treated on the surface, and now my body is feeling better than ever.
Also very skilled at IMS.

Justin listens patiently to my issues. He looks into the root of my problem and offers solutions. Together with the massage therapist Neil whose work is effective and They BOTH really help me a lot!

Former competitive rugby player dealing with a plethora of injury repercussions and mobility issues. I had tried 3 other physios before finding Prehab. Justin helped me overcome these and I feel healthier than I have in years. Best physio in Vancouver.
