Have been going to physio for a few years now, and I have finally found a place that feels like its working. Seth is amazing at breaking down the complex biology and simplifying it for me so I can actually use the things I have learned at home, and while doing anything physical that would otherwise aggravate my injuries.

I’ve been seeing the team at Optimize for just over a month and I feel great. They’ve been phenomenal with the treatment plan. They’re professional, they’re supportive and best of all they’re super nice.

Seth was very thorough and professional. He gave me exercises that I can easily do at home between appointments to help improve my rotator cuff. I would strongly recommend Seth to my friends for their physiotherapy needs.

I’ve been going to this clinic for about a year or so. I really feel that they care about their clients health and wellness and they really listen to the client.

I’ve been going to this clinic for about a year or so. I’ve had chiropractic, massage and now physio. Everyone is super awesome and knowledgeable from the admins to the massage therapists and everyone else. I really feel that they care about their clients health and wellness and they really listen to the client. I’ve referred so many people here and they all say that they love going here.

I had a massage with Julienne today and she was absolutely fantastic. I didn’t even really have to tell her where I was having the most tightness or discomfort – she knew immediately. I feel absolutely fantastic.

I had a massage with Julienne today and she was absolutely fantastic. I didn’t even really have to tell her where I was having the most tightness or discomfort – she knew immediately. I also struggle to find massage therapists who use enough pressure (and can maintain enough pressure), and she did awesome. I feel absolutely fantastic. It was just what my body needed before my race this weekend. Thanks!

As an older couple, we want not just to maintain our functionality but to increase it, which is a slower process than it used to be. We have worked with personal trainers in the past, but Kate ranks far above. She carefully plans each session and tracks our progress while offering challenges. She encourages us constantly and when we leave each training, we are motivated to try to be our best.

I’ve found the best physio! Arri is great, so are the team that go through the exercises with you. They know their stuff! They don’t rush you out of there and you can tell they actually care. Its worth 30min drive across the city for me!

Finally after 2.5 years living in Edmonton, I’ve found the best physio! Arri is great, so are the team that go through the exercises with you. I love the set up here, that you get a solid 30 mins (or whatever your booking time is) of hands-on treatment and advice and THEN you get the additional time of going through exercises, heat therapy or whatever else you need.

They know their stuff! They don’t rush you out of there and you can tell they actually care. Its worth 30 min drive across the city for me!

Been seeing Anastasia for the past couple months, as a fellow athlete she is not like physiotherapists I’ve had in the past that are only book smart. Ana knows what it is like to push the body and therefor has studied how to recover effectively.

Been seeing Anastasia for the past couple months, as a fellow athlete she is not like physiotherapists I’ve had in the past that are only book smart. Ana knows what it is like to push the body and therefor has studied how to recover effectively. It took me ten minutes of meeting her to realize she is passionate about her work. The program she has me in has helped open my hips up tremendously…so much so I made my mother start a treatment plan with her as well. Whether your an athlete looking to raise the roof on your abilities or simply looking for mobile longevity, this is the woman you want to see. Blessed to have found someone who is passionate about their job as much as Ana is.

Aaron came highly recommended and he did not fail me. He spent a lot of time with me, explaining everything he was doing and why. Addressed all my questions honestly.

I was exceptionally impressed with my initial consult and treatment with Briana. I came in with knee issues, and she quickly recognized my hyper mobility and demonstrated several movements to help improve my stability. Her deep knowledge of how the body works was immediately reassuring, and I left feeling hopeful and supported.

She was friendly, professional, and very clear in explaining what she was doing and why, which made me feel confident and comfortable throughout the session. Her deep knowledge of how the body works was immediately reassuring, and I left feeling hopeful and supported.

I’ve already booked my next few appointments and highly recommend her!

Peyton is one of the most empowering practitioners I have ever seen. I always feel like she is making an intentional effort to educate me throughout my appointment, making sure I understand what’s happening and why.

Peyton is one of the most empowering practitioners I have ever seen. She takes the time to explain her process and the “why” behind what she’s doing. I always feel like she is making an intentional effort to educate me throughout my appointment, making sure I understand what’s happening and why. I’ve seen her for neck pain, an on-going wrist issue, as well as overall wellness and it’s clear that I, along with anyone that sees her, leaves an appointment with Peyton as a better version of themselves.

I injured my upper back from work and I was in a lot pain for weeks, but after about 3-4 sessions with Arri Mcwatt It started to feel a lot better.

I injured my upper back from work and I was in a lot pain for weeks, but after about 3-4 sessions with Arri Mcwatt It started to feel a lot better. Muscles started to loosen up and I was able to get back to work sooner. He really shows how cares about you and is very professional. Glad I found this place and everyone was very welcoming and great atmosphere inside. Thank you so much.

I have struggled with stress incontinence for several years and finally decided to seek help. Courtney has been amazing and has made an awkward topic so comfortable and normal.

Optimize Physiotherapy was recommended by my physician for pelvic floor physio. I have struggled with stress incontinence for several years and finally decided to seek help. Courtney has been amazing and has made an awkward topic so comfortable and normal. She has not only helped me with urinary continence but also helped with chronic hip pain that has kept me suffering for years. I so appreciate the service and support that I have received from your clinic. Thank you!!!

After a motor vehicle accident in February my doctor recommended physio. I was skeptical that it would help as I had a fairly negative viewpoint towards physiotherapy. I found Optimize as they were close to home and decided to give it a try. What I found was a very pleasant and encouraging environment with exercises set up and geared towards helping me recover.

After a motor vehicle accident in February my doctor recommended physio. I was skeptical that it would help as I had a fairly negative viewpoint towards physiotherapy. I found Optimize as they were close to home and decided to give it a try. What I found was a very pleasant and encouraging environment with exercises set up and geared towards helping me recover. I can say now that although there were days that I had to really push myself to make it to my appointments, that the benefits have been great and I am well on my way to a much better me, I will take what I have learned and continue to do these exercises to some extent most likely forever now. If I feel myself getting a little sore I know what to do now. I would highly recommend seeking physio or the other therapies Optimize offers for anyone suffering from muscle issues or pain.

I always got excited to see Courtney, and she always shared stories and made me laugh. Although I am pumped to be injury free, I will definitely miss my weekly dose of fun here!

Before I came to Optimize, I was really upset about not being able to play sports. When I came here they were reassuring and welcome, and made me feel excited to get past my injury. I always got excited to see Courtney, and she always shared stories and made me laugh. Although I am pumped to be injury free, I will definitely miss my weekly dose of fun here!

I particularly like the functional/progressive gym workouts at Optimize, which kept in mind my personal function and fitness goals for the long term.

I was referred to Optimize after an acute ankle injury. Aaron was my PT for the 8 weeks of immediate acute assessment recovery, strengthening/range of motion and functional progression phases. I particularly like the functional/progressive gym workouts at Optimize, which kept in mind my personal function and fitness goals for the long term. Aaron’s treatment plans gave me confidence in my own post-injury ability and his home physio plans sped up recovery time. All the staff at Optimize are friendly and professional.

Meredith H.

They work to understand my goals and always explain in a way I can understand. They built a plan that works with my schedule, rather than forcing me to change my routines.

I spent many years working to rehab some serious injuries and felt like the physio clinics I was referred to spent more time managing my pain than helping me get back to the activities I wanted to do. Optimize was like a different world; helping get me back on the court which was refreshing. They work to understand my goals and always explain in a way I can understand. They built a plan that works with my schedule, rather than forcing me to change my routines. Courtney specifically has been essential to me completing the endurance challenges I have put myself through!

Clint Schmidt

Aaron was able to assess my injury, interpret my medical tests and explain them to me in a way that I understood. He came up with a treatment plan and explained why each exercise was important and how they would help me reach my goals.

I’ve always had shoulder pain and assumed it was something I needed to ‘live with’ as doctors and other physios had suggested surgeries (which I didn’t want) and past exercises never seemed to work. Aaron was able to assess my injury, interpret my medical tests and explain them to me in a way that I understood. He came up with a treatment plan and explained why each exercise was important and how they would help me reach my goals. I’ve decreased my pain because Aaron took the time to understand my goals and develop a targeted approach.

I had non-stop shoulder and back pain for three years. Arri had me feeling better in just one visit.

I had non-stop shoulder and back pain for three years. Arri had me feeling better in just one visit. By the end of visit number five, I was pain free. He provided excellent care and provided me with numerous resources to help me stay pain free. I liked him so much, I told my mom to go see him.

Mark Guest

Arri and Aaron are welcoming, and make you feel like you’re surrounded by friends. They use many strength and mobility exercises that I use with my personal training clients.
