Online Synergy Physio has been a lifesaver for me! I had been struggling with thoracic/back issues for years causing escalating pain, anxiety, and breathing constriction; I had been to many providers over the years (chiropractor, massage, other physiotherapists), but all relief was only temporary. I was referred to Linda-Joy Lee and her therapies, and was very optimistic when I saw her clinic offered remote Virtual physio treatments, as I live far from Vancouver and was not able to attend in person. The remote appointments have been incredible! LJ was able to observe and diagnose my body movement issues and maladaptive postures via video, and direct me through exercises and give me a regimen that has made me feel able to live my life again! I cannot believe how much relief I have received via a few video sessions, something that I was not able to accomplish with years of in-person treatments elsewhere! I am very thankful for the opportunity to attend remote appointments, and I look forward to continuing to work with this amazing clinic.

I am a senior Canadian citizen who has been a regular physiotherapy patient for a number of years. When I returned to Vancouver two weeks ago from a trip to California, I was required to isolate myself for 14 days—therefore unable to have the benefits of my normal physiotherapy sessions.Then I was offered the opportunity to participate in tele rehab, Virtual Physiotherapy, where my physiotherapist demonstrated what she wanted me to do, and then made suggestions and corrections while I was executing the exercise.To my amazement, by the end of the session, I was more than satisfied that I had experienced the benefits of a normal face-to-face physio session.I highly recommend Virtual Physio/ TeleRehab as a substitute in situations where you cannot attend the usual face-to-face physiotherapy session.

I chose to work with Kyra because she is a specialized performing arts physiotherapist which I absolutely love. She is very dedicated and knowledgeable in her craft. Each session begins with a mini consultation or review to see how she can better treat my body. She is thorough and empathetic regarding how to properly care for my body so I can successfully improve what I need to do – in this case, my handstands. With the training exercises and suggestions, I have been able to hold my handstands longer and have been able to understand how to square my hips! If you need a physiotherapist for anything, she is the one to see – professional, caring, and respectful :)

Tamsen is a very knowledgeable and personable Pilates Instructor. She talks her clients through the elements of each Pilates exercise in a very clear and helpful manner. She is also excellent in adapting movements to accommodate acute and chronic injuries. Tamsen is absolutely the best Pilates Instructor I have ever been privileged to experience; I cannot recommend her more highly.

A year after having my second child I was noticing some major “faults” with my bladder and pelvic floor. Instead of going to a Urologist as my Family Dr had suggested I decided to try pelvic floor physio; Synergy Physio came highly recommended when I started my search and I have never looked back. I have been so impressed with the level of care and commitment shown by the staff at Synergy Physio.Jane Bruce has taken on every quirk my body has presented and we have worked together for the past 2 years to not only strengthen my pelvic floor but to also strengthen and address many other issues I had suffered with for over 10 years. I never thought I could live my life without the constant pain from 2 car accidents and now I have never felt better!I had tried physio back when I was a teenager …. Many years ago and I have to say the education and certification of Synergy Physiotherapists is far superior to anything I have seen. I am in constant awe of the way Jane is able to read my body and make adjustments that not only relieve my pain but help stimulate proper muscle use/ function.You will have to put effort into your recovery with regular “homework” but with the help of Synergy you will be in good hands and hopefully feeling great in no time!Thank you for all the support and guidance Jane & staff at Synergy!!

I had been dealing with pain and discomfort in my neck, shoulder, hip and leg for several years and had seen many Practitioners with only slight relief until I went to Synergy Physio. Jane found the root of my problem and has helped me gain my strength and mobility back. Thanks so much Jane!

LJ's expertise enabled my recovery. Her determination gave me the belief that I would recover. Her experience taught me how to stay healthy.

The therapists take all needs into consideration and are great at pinpointing problem areas as well as adjusting therapy as injuries vary.

Before I met LJ and Lindsay, I thought my athletic career was over; my hip pain hurt in everyday movements, never mind the agony of attempting to throw a javelin. The first time LJ treated me using her ConnectTherapy and Thoracic Ring Approach models, I cried in relief because the pain was gone! With my health restored and movement patterns optimized, my body is at its best.Thank you LJ and Lindsay for putting me back together, so I can keep doing what I love.

When I focus to stack the thoracic rings and open my shoulder blades, riding technical terrain becomes more fluid and efficient.
- Tara, North Vancouver, BC
Before meeting LJ, I was almost resigned to living with the chronic pain and sports injuries I'd had since my teens. I remember being incredibly emotional the first time LJ treated me, showing me that my body could move well and feel strong without the pain that had been so debilitating for years. Having worked with LJ consistently my movement patterns improved so much that I was able to climb both Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Meru in Tanzania back to back this summer, without injury, something that would have been inconceivable to me just the year before. Not only am I grateful beyond words for this gift of better movement, ConnectTherapy & the Thoracic Ring Approach have also changed my professional life.
