Deborah Caughey
When I first arrived at Optimize I was in sad shape. I couldn't walk properly. My right knee had just been diagnosed with osteo arthritis severely. Left knee has it as well but not as bad. I was introduced to Nick and then the work started. He was very patient and encouraging. Demonstrated exactly what I had to do and was always by my side. I felt safe and comfortable. Month later, knees are much improved with hope that they will continue to get stronger. I am very grateful to Nick and Optimize. I have my life back. Thank you so much.

If you’re in need of physiotherapy, Optimize Physiotherapy is your place. They have a great facility, friendly staff, an easy to use booking system, and they apply effective physio techniques with a focus on one on one attention. Paul Fortin did a great job helping me recover from my separated shoulder injury. We established goals and he used movement based treatments to improve my range of motion and strength. His explanations and demonstrations of the elements of the treatments were great - very clear and easy to follow.
Ady Garcia
