For Health's Sake

Lex Posie's massage therapy is a game-changer, especially for those hard-to-reach areas like under the scapula. Her unique approach to back and shoulder massage has provided relief in spots I never even knew were tense. It's an all-around amazing experience – if you want the best, skip the rest and choose Lex. Absolutely a 10/10 recommendation!

Ashley Clark is unbelievable! I’ve her a few times, but last time was unreal. I went to see her yesterday, I had such a strain on my neck with incredible pain. I walked in and we laughed about how my head was slanted, couldn’t straighten it out! After 30 minutes I felt way better! Head was straight again haha, music was soothing, and the environment was so relaxing. I woke up this morning and I felt a million times better, no strain, no pain. She’s amazing! If I could give more stars I would, she’s a miracle worker! THANK YOU

Nicole Kirby has truly changed my physical and mental state over the last year of seeing her. I came to Nicole with concerns that other professionals overlooked or told me were not possible. Nicole not only listened but had a level of compassion that allowed me to feel truly at ease and seen. She is knowledgable and professional but has a warmth that really makes you believe she cares about your outcome. The physical piece of my pain has begun to be alleviated through our sessions but the mental component is something I didn't even realize I needed to work on before Nicole. She has gone above and beyond to make me feel like things will get better and after sessions with her I can confidently say they have. If you have ever felt that your concerns are not being heard - please do yourself a favour and go to Nicole - she will alleviate your concerns and get you on the right track! Thank you Nicole for everything - looking forward to continuing to work with you.

I had a treatment from Ashley and she was amazing. She took the time to really understand what's ailing me and I felt so much better after seeing her. You can see her passion for Osteopathy and her vast knowledge.

Carly Ball is my therapist at For Health's Sake. She has been very supportive over many months and has helped me with many issues. Highly recommend.

Loved my Lymphatic Drainage Massage with Maggie last week. She took her time to explain how it works and what I really appreciated was the depth of knowledge Maggie shared to dig into my specific situation (i.e. How to manage stomach bloating). I will definitely return!

I can’t recommend Dr. Mitch Elliott enough! I saw him throughout my pregnancy for Sciatic pain. He listened to my concerns and did an amazing job of explaining everything to me every step of the process.

I was treated by ashley…. She is amazing.her knowledge of the inter working of the body was incredible.she is my new mechanic.i will be returning as long as needed.

10/10 also the work space is homey and cute

Very relaxing and calming atmosphere. Came in for a Tmj massage. Maggie is wonderful and knowledgeable. Already booked by second session and can't wait!

Very professional, knowledgeable staff. Front desk is very responsive and flexible. East location to get to just steps off queen and Spadina. Usually lots of Parking in the area too.

I been coming to see Kaitlin for physiotherapy for the past couple years. I wanted to give her some praise and also highly recommended her services with anyone wanting to improve, heal and understand their bodies more! She has a very different approach than the typical physio but it worked for me!

For example I injured my lower back at work will a bulging disc and was pretty much bed ridden. I could barely walk up those stairs at the Queen West location. One hour later I was running down those stairs to leave.literally!

If the norm isn't working for you, give Kaitlin a shout!

Had a message with Lex. She is so intuitive and knew exactly what my body wanted. I literally left feeling high and giggling. It was ammmmmmazing.

Such a vibe!
It's fun, creative, and relaxing all in one
From the location to the client - you can make a whole self care day out of it. I will only being going here for now on!

I have been seeing Elias for almost a year now for an ACL tear. He has guided me through pre-Hab pre surgery and rehab post surgery. He is wonderful and strikes a great balance between pushing me to overcome challenges and easing off when he knows I need to be patient with recovery. Highly recommend!

For Healths Sake is one of my favourite things to see in my calendar. I have seen multiple practitioners for massage, chiropractic and acupuncture and they have all been kind and thoughtful, and have made a positive impact on how I am feeling and my quality of life. I would highly recommend the clinic.

Been going to FHS since they opened a few years ago.
Chloe is really a master at what she does. She fixed my knee before. And she really takes the time to target the spots that cause pain or discomfort. She makes you feel relaxed and at ease. Always feel great after a massage session.
She also knows which specialist to recommend that would work best on whatever discomfort you might need further treatment with.

Also was treated for Physiotherapy by Kaitlin, for my chronic back pain. She was quick to figure out potential causes and quickly helped address them. It was treated well and she helps you understand prevention as well.

Also saw Elias to address Shin splints issue after trying out running. He was great and really helped strengthen the necessary muscles to be able to continue running.

Every team member in this organization is just simply amazing, from front desk to RMTs and Physiotherapists.
They have a great culture of truly caring for their clients and making sure that they receive the proper treatment.

Will keep going to FHS for future treatments.

Elias treated my Achilles tendon injury with excellent attention to detail. Will be going back for any other muscle issues

I had to do a little extra physio. I had not worked with Kaitlin before and she figured out my issues soooo quickly. Many breakthrough moments with Kaitlin Turner. Extremely thankful to have found her and for her insights.

Had a Physio session with Elias today regarding my elbow pain. I’m very happy with the way he explained the concern to me. Very professional and knowledgeable. He adhered to treatment modalities backed by solid research only and gave me a very realistic timeline for recovery. Will be seeing him again very soon. Strongly recommended.

I am SO grateful I found Kaitlin Turner as a physiotherapist! Her holistic physiotherapy approach has given me a path forward with my full body pain that no other professional has been able to provide.

1.5 years ago, I developed constant burning pain down my back/legs which highly impeded my quality of life. I saw 2 chiropractors, an RMT, 2 physiotherapists, and a somatic therapist, all to no avail.

Kaitlin’s unique holistic approach helped me realize that chronic stress had a huge role in my pain. She sent me very helpful exercises immediately after our first session and I’ve been using them everyday since!

The massage therapy with Katherine was hands down the best one I have ever had. I was not fully aware of the extent to which my neck and upper back had been banged up over the course of the last few months or so; but I feel so much better now three days after my session.

I wanted to leave a review for Elias Peixoto, physiotherapist. For the past few years I've been having on/off right ankle pain and Elias did a great job with treatment and helping me manage the pain in my own day-to-day life. He is professional, courteous, and overall eased a lot of my concerns. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a physiotherapist.

Highly recommend For Health's Sake for massage or physiotherapy needs! Chloe is a great listener, that does well at forming a treatment plan based on individual needs and she has the experience to adjust her techniques based on those needs! Kaitlin is very knowledgeable and has a very welcoming approach that makes it easy to become comfortable. Kaitlin's unique approach has helped me greatly!

Phenomenal place!

If you're looking for some very capable help for physio or chiro, I can personally guarantee this place. They are absolutely worth you at least going for a check up to see for yourself - highly recommend!

Currently seeing Elias for physio and Carmel for chiro.

Elias has been spot on with identifying areas to work on with me and how to work on them. He has a wealth of knowledge on different exercises and stretches for my back and provides me with great homework to help between sessions. He has also helped me correct my form in the gym with the exercises my back precludes me from doing normally.

Carmel has been been incredible with finding the exact spots on my back to target and how to tackle them. Her expertise has been a huge help in getting to the deeper, less accessible parts of my back that need attention. She has also been very helpful with incorporating what we do for my back with the exercises I struggle with!

Additionally, Petra and Jewel from the front desk have been super helpful! I had a last minute switch I needed to make and they were kind enough to kindly ask another client if they wouldn't mind moving an appointment by a little bit. Both are super friendly and really represent the location well!:)

2 ft step at front door, with a massive crack in the last step to get your foot caught in. Elder lady with cane trips and I caught her flying. I was already late to my appointment, due to the dangerous steps I waited another 10 minutes for the poor injured lady with a cane to exit with her son helping her, to still be in there to catch them both. Gross. Told the front desk, she tried to help me but she had no authority to help me. I ended up being extra late for my appointment with the front entrance in array.

How is a Physio place have such an unsafe entrance? No one with injuries should be going here.

I've written a review about For Health's Sake before, but they have grown so much over the last few years that I felt it was worth updating my thoughts. I'll start off by saying that they hire such exceptional practitioners - every person they bring on board is consistently awesome.

Kaitlin is so thorough, kind and attentive - she assesses you not just from a muscular standpoint, but holistically as well. She looks for patterns in your lifestyle and other external factors to provide you with a sustainable, targeted and helpful plan. You can always count on her to follow up with a thorough, customized email to help you maintain your work at home.

Katherine is such a talented RMT - on the few occasions where I've gone in with acute pain, she has leapt into action and went above and beyond to help me feel better. Knowing my concerns and health goals, she always proactively brings in little extras to my treatments to continue furthering my well-being, even if I'm not there to address that specific concern each time.

Lisa and Meagan are both awesome. I had never tried acupuncture for non-muscular reasons prior to seeing them, and I can happily say that they have been attentive, helpful and thorough in addressing my needs. I was genuinely surprised at how responsive my body was to the work they both did. They're both also very gentle needlers if that gives anyone reassurance! I was always scared to be a pincushion before them, and now I don't notice a thing.

That concludes my ode to FHS for now - but suffice it to say, you're in great hands no matter who you see there. It's so convenient going to a clinic where so many modalities are practiced, and its consistently with some of the best practitioners you can find.

I have been visiting For Health Sake RMT treatments with Lilia Leon for close to a year and have nothing but good to say about the clinic, the staff, and Lilia. The therapist is attentive and inquisitive in playing a vested role in managing my health to the point that I always feel valued and cared for as a patient. RMT treatments are always comfortable yet effectively therapeutic, billing process could not be more smooth, and I would gladly recommend FHS and Lilia for anyone's health needs.

I was very impressed with physiotherapist Elias Peixoto. He really took time to understand my issues and carefully analyze the root of my pain. He has designed an effective - but simple - exercise plan for me and I already feel the difference. Thanks Elias!

I have been coming to FHS for years and have always had the best experience. All the RMTs are extremely knowledgeable and in tune with their practices, and I always walk out feeling great and refreshed. Kaitlin and Carmel are also really amazing, with truly holistic approaches, if you're looking for other services. The atmosphere is always welcoming and warm and I couldn't recommend FHS more!

This clinic is an OASIS FOR HEALTH - it has offered a safe and supportive place for me to heal and expand. I have made my rounds through many of the modalities offered - I have received Acupuncture, Massage, Physio and Chiropractic treatments here, so i feel i can speak from a place of knowing - THERE IS MAGIC IN THIS CLINIC! It begins with the knowledgeble and heart-led practitioners, and is further complemented by the beautiful and tastefully decorated space. I feel so luck to have found this place and i cannot recommend it enough!

The kindest and most caring team of therapists. I’ve been seeing Katie for two years now and I couldn’t be more happy with her compassionate care. Thank you!

If you are looking to join a team where you are supported and nurtured as a professional and a human and your ideas matter, look no further.
Chloe and Katie understand leadership and have created a fabulous emotional culture and are committed to serving diverse clients in an authentic manner. You will love working at FHS. Welcome aboard

The “ awake “ massage I’ve had today with Katherine was amazing! I felt rejuvenated, rested, refreshed!
Katherine is the BEST massage therapist I’ve ever had!
Professional, compassionate, pleasant!
I can’t wait until my next massage ️

Working at FHS hardly feels like "work" at all. The highly skilled team and management feel more like family, who have offered genuine support for my professional and personal growth since I came on board. The physical space has a warm and welcoming vibe that helps clients and staff feel at home. There is a strong emphasis on collaboration among therapists, which offers a unique inter-disciplinary approach to client care and lots of opportunity to learn from each other. Of all the clinics I have worked at, FHS feels the most like home!

First time at the clinic - highly recommend it. Got a 45 mins massage from Linda and it was excellent.

Recently joined the team at FHS as an RMT and every step of the process has been rewarding. From meeting both of the amazing founders Katie and Chloe as well the training, continuous support and appreciation that they have offered. The team has a strong female and BIPOC presence and that in itself is something that makes me proud to be a part of it. My days are fast paced, and engaging and I love being able to refer clients to multiple types of care under the same roof. There is great communication amongst our team and the management is organized, generous and efficient. #dreamteam

Lisa Chau is honest, calm, grounded, intuitive, and wise. She cares. From some deep well. She is authentic. She has special seeing powers. She senses. She knows. There is magic to her. I will definitely be joining the Lisa Chau circle and seeking her quality of alignment regularly from now on.

I was looking for a new massage clinic, as my regular place closed recently. I had a quick call with the clinic director, so she could match me with a therapist. I have specific issues from past injuries and my treatment was great. Highly recommend!

Could not recommend For Health's Sake enough! I've seen multiple practitioners (Chloe, Katie and Katherine) for registered message therapy and everyone is amazing. The team is very skilled and professional, taking time to understand your ailments. They also have great COVID safety measures in place.

I highly recommend physiotherapist Kaitlin Turner. She is knowledgeable, professional and kind. I have been a patient of Kaitlin's for over 5 years, and believe she is an expert in her field. The clinic itself has a very relaxing atmosphere and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Accessible location, great space that feels like home. Their front desk service is excellent, Olivia makes you feel welcomed and lets you know about the amenities available to you, if you wish to use them.

Had a massage with Maggie, she was extremely accommodating and asks you what your comfort level is, what’s bothering you etc. Her hands are magic. Instantly felt like I got brand new shoulders as soon as we were done.

As per COVID-19 protocols, screening questions are sent to you in advance, as well as intake forms. This saves a lot of time, so all you have to do is get yourself settled before your appointment.

I've done multiple services with For Health's Sake but I am consistently seeing Milly. She is so nice, warm and comforting. She has helped me so much with my anxiety and depression. I have seen a lot of counsellors and professionals to help with my mental health and from my experiences, she is the only one who respectfully holds me accountable while also validating my feelings. I can't wait to see how the rest of our journey goes

Dr Carmel was terrific. Took the time to answer all my questions and paused throughout to ensure I was comfortable and had no further questions.

Katie is one of the best RMT’s I have ever seen! If you require a deep tissue massage, she can handle that! If you need a relaxing gentle massage, then she is amazing at this too! Her expertise and knowledge amazes me, I have learned so much and feel completely comfortable. I rush to my appointments with excitement, I can’t wait to see her! Thank You Katie for sorting out my aching muscles. Much love!

I have been going to For Health's Sake since 2019. It's really been the one place I look forward to going to during Covid. I see Katie for my deep and relaxing massage, she gets right to the spots I need her to and I escape for an hour, it's just amazing. Dr. Carmel Bachar has worked wonders on my shoulder injury, I was blown away about how well she knows the body and targets precise points of discomfort. The whole team of women are on point, not to mention there is always good music playing in the rooms. Highly recommended.

This clinic is THE BEST! The staff are all friendly and professional. The rooms are super zen and beautiful. Plus, the services are top notch - I've enjoyed every single massage I've ever had here. HIGHLY recommend!

Milly Feliz is amazing, kind, caring and attentive. She has helped me work through many of the things I was struggling with and created a safe and nurturing environment. I was hesitant at first, but her warm and inviting energy makes you feel so comfortable and free. She is incredibly knowledgeable, a real professional and excellent at her craft. It is also very easy to book an appointment through her or via the front desk. Very professional clinic. Im so happy I found her!
Highly recommend. 10/10.

For Health's Sake is a great clinic that focuses on holistic treatments. I have been to the clinic for both psychotherapy with Sybil and physiotherapy with Kaitlin. Both practitioners are incredibly empathetic, patient and knowledgable. It is clear that they both care about delivering the highest quality treatments to their patients. I can't recommend them – or the clinic – enough!

Nirushan was amazing! Very knowledgeable and explained the process to me very well. Got a lot of range of motion back from my first appointment with him!

Eden Graham is an amazing physiotherapist and incredibly kind. She took the time to evaluate and understand my shoulder pain, while assessing my injury history and exercise habits. I enjoyed each session and was grateful for the tailored exercise plan that Eden developed that I could do at home. Over a three month period Eden helped relieve my discomfort but also helped build up my strength and mobility. I would highly recommend Eden and Health's Sake.

What an amazing team! Dr. Carmel is a pleasure to work with. So much passion and excitement for her patients and profession.
Traditionally I've avoided chiropractors because of all the breaking and bending. Dr. Carmel does not use this approach.
I've tried to resolve my back pain for years. After my first visit and acupuncture treatment everything started to improve immediately. Mind blown!

I saw Lisa today for Esoteric Acupuncture and I was so amazed with the downloads that came through! I'm very excited for the month ahead, and the esoteric acupuncture treatment was exactly what I needed at the perfect moment. I can see so many people benefit from this to regain a certain sense of connection with oneself. Thank you for a magical experience. The mothership showed up and brought everything I needed to connect with for a full system update. Many thanks for facilitating the journey.

For Health's Sake is probably the best Health/Wellness centre I've been to in the city. I had a back/shoulder issue for a while and went to 5 different places for physio, spent a bunch of money and time for very little results. I went to Health's Sake, and with my new physiotherapist Eden Graham, she truly took her time in our first session to really understand the root of my pain, asking me many questions, and coming up with a solid plan and treatments ive never tried that work. She follows up and ensure we're making progress for the end goal of healing me. Her mentality was if this patient went to 5 different places, then we should try something new. The previous places never took time to really dive into my injuries, history, and trying different new methods. I highly recommend this place for wellness treatments, I'm a very happy customer:)

Katie and Chloe are not only great RMTs, but personable professionals who show incredible care for their patients. For Health’s Sake has become a regular amenity within my workplace, visiting my office once a month. It has been a real game changer for the office, who not only enjoy the convenience of onsite massage at work, but truly appreciate the knowledge and top-notch service Katie and Chloe provide. I cannot recommend these two enough!

I have also been treated by Dr. Carmel (chiropractor) and Katherine (RMT) who are both incredibly knowledgable and always have such great energy. Most recently, I have been working with Eden (Physiotherapist) who has gone above and beyond to craft a treatment plan that is both manageable and accessible and is truly committed to helping you meet your specific wellness goals.

Such a relaxing and beautiful environment. Chloe and Katherine are incredible masseuses. Haven’t had a better massage anywhere else. My husband and I live in Newmarket and make the trip downtown because they are THAT good. Customers for life. Thank you ladies!

It's been an absolutely joy working with Devin. I've struggled with knee and hip pain after a running injury a few years ago and have tried a number of various physiotherapists, exercises and treatments. Devin was the first specialist that took the time to really listen to my symptoms and goals and has worked with me to create a treatment plan to fit my needs and my lifestyle. Visits with Devin, whether virtual or in person, are always so productive and leave me feeling optimistic about my outlook. She's truly such a kind, warm and thoughtful person while being so so knowledgeable and trustworthy. On top of all that, the space is calm and comfortable, and the location can't be beat. Absolutely recommend.

Devin has been super thoughtful and caring and helping me fix not one but two separate problems. I feel better and confident. Thanks

Never had a bad experience with For Health's Sake so far. Definitely recommend giving this place a shot if you're looking to finally use your insurance benefits. Super welcoming environment, clean and nice relaxing tunes. Recently had a go with their new addition Maggie. Super intuitive and found knots I didn't know I had. Made me feel uber loose and relaxed. Def try her out!

Since switching to FHS, I’ve seen a lot more improvement then at my last physiotherapist. Devin is great! She actually makes me look forward to my sessions. Highly recommend FHS to all!

It is an absolute pleasure working with Eden. I’ve seen noticeable improvement in my wrist injury while working with her and I can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and their well-being. She always sends detailed follow up notes that I can refer back to if I ever forgot what exercises we discussed during a session. I highly recommend her!
