I had shoulder surgery (slap lesion repair) and Holly got me back to being able to do everything I could before having injured my shoulder to begin with. I can't imagine going to anyone else. Thanks again!

I saw Holly McMenemy for some intense back and shoulder pain. She was so incredibly helpful! She asked patient but precise questions to try to determine the cause of the pain and gave me clear guidance on exercises that could help. In just a few visits, the pain was gone. I am so grateful!

Aging sucks. Heard that before when I was younger.but oh how true it is at 79 years old. My Doctor sent me to Total Physiotherapy, which as a Senior I guess I am entitled to 6 weeks of treatment without an insurance plan.
The pain from the lower back was getting worse month by month as I entered retirement. The pain from the Sciatic Nerve was radiating down my left leg hurt almost all the time - including sleep. It was especially bad after sitting for long car rides.
I liken it to a loud noise that won't stop.
Natasha was my guide for six weeks. Her demos 14 different exercises that she felt might help me did just that. One particular exercise, entitled "Sciatic Nerve Glide", worked well. Almost immediately the the fire like pain in my lower leg and foot was reduced to not being there. This week there has been NO PAIN for one whole week's time. If and when it seemed to be coming back - I did the exercise and it went away.
If you remember what I stated about the pain being like a loud noise? Well when that loud noise went away, there are other noises now. AND most of the other 13 exercises are working to quiet these down as well.
Was there injuries to cause these? Nope! Just 15 years of retirement with not nearly as much physical movement and sitting long times while I enjoy my hobbies - quietly for four hours at a time.
Thank you Natasha. I listened to all you suggested and have been working at this business of getting better - or is that just "more active now"?

Friendly, immediate and helpful service with scheduling (primarily I dealt with Maria) and my physiotherapist Braden has been excellent.

Holly was incredible! She helped me realize that this pain I felt, I didn't just have to live with and gave me the tools I need to feel better. All the staff were fantastic, welcoming and friendly. I feel so much better and I couldn't have done it without the Total Physio team. 100% will recommend to everyone!

I had chosen to start physio here and gave them all my info on a Friday morning and stated I need to start ASAP. They had said they would call me back seeming like it was going to be within the same day. I didn’t hear anything back from them until Tuesday afternoon. If it was going to take a few days to get an answer, they should of told me it would take a few days. I ended up calling another place and got an appointment the very next day. I only chose this place first as I’ve done physio here before.
