LEANNE HUCK, MSC (PT), BSCKINE - LIFEMARK REVIEWS
Leanne is the best physiotherapist ever. She solved pain issues I had been having for years that various other professionals couldn't. Clean, professional, and knowledgeable staff. You can book your appointments online and get text reminders/confirmation.
Best clinic in Halifax! I've been going for 2 years following an MVA and have always had a positive experience. The staff are always friendly and welcoming and I couldn't recommend a better team of professionals to look after your health and healing!
Leanne is magic. Fixed my herniated disc issues and got me back to normal life in just a few weeks. Chad’s exercise program should keep the problem from returning. Thanks so much to both of you.

MIKE CONNORS, PT - YOUNGKEMPT PHYSIOTHERAPY REVIEWS
I have had fantastic experiences at Young Kemp physio. I have had shoulder issues for a while, and Mike has really moved my healing and range of motion along quickly. Dev is also a fantastic massage therapist who can find knots you don't know you have. All staff are polite, friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. I'm 100% happy with the care I receive
The team is super focused on wellness. I’ve been to visit Mike for two separate issues, Both times he was able to quickly diagnose and recommend/implement a plan of action to alleviate the issues. Easy going, but very knowledgeable and professional
Amazing staff. I never have to wait long, they are very knowledgable and caring, always on top of scheduling, highly recommend!

ALISON BEATON, PT, MCLSC, FCAMPT - SCOTIA PHYSIOTHERAPY REVIEWS
Alison Beaton is an absolutely amazing physiotherapist! She is thorough, attentive and encouraging. Her interpersonal skills always makes me feel very relaxed for the duration of my treatments. Today was bitter/sweet as today marked the conclusion of my regular appointments. Despite that she provided me with advice to keep me motivated to maintain behaviour conducive to remain pain free. I highly recommend Alison Beaton and Scotia Physiotherapy to anyone needing treatment.
Scotia Physiotherapy is an excellent choice for rehabilitation. After falling on ice and injuring my shoulder, Cynthia was able to quickly and effectively rehabilitate my injury and get me back to the exercises and sports that I love. Their transition to telehealth during the pandemic made it easy for me to access treatment from home. I was glad I chose their services; should I ever need a physiotherapist again I won't hesitate to reach out.
Excellent massage and physiotherapy providers here, very knowledgeable and skillled. Staff is always friendly and helpful when I visit.
