I have been a satisfied customer of Vivi therapy for more than 2 years now. The team at the Oak Bay…read morelocation is excellent. Top marks for Marissa and Ilinca, and Roxanne has experience and then some. They have strong front end staff who are excellent at resolving scheduling issues and can help with the materiel one might need if one is planning a surprise massage for a spouse. In a city full of RMT's Vivi is one of a kind.

Very unprofessional, unhelpful and unwelcoming business. Bought a Dealfind coupon and could not…read moreget an appointment without being grilled and chastized about one coupon per person. I received one as a gift from a friend and I bought one for my mom. All coupons have not been redeemed, though they were purchased in 2011. I called two times and could not get professional assistance or even book an appointment. Beware of this place, very unsatisfied and I was hung up on in the second attempt. I am going to eat my losses and warn others to stay away, thank goodness my elderly mother never called.

I tried Synergy because my regular RMT was unavailable and I had back pain that needed treatment…read more Sorry, but I won't be back. The Quadra St location is tired looking both inside and outside. The Reception staff were not particularly pleasant or welcoming and I received 8 email notifications of my appt with intake forms over 3 days! How annoying!! The massage was ok; no relaxing music or other touches to make it more pleasant. It felt very clinical to me and lacked in aesthetic appeal.

I really wasn't expecting to get to see anyone until I got back home to my regular chiropractor and I'm so glad I've been able to connect with Dr. Marina. She really knows her stuff. As a massage therapist as well as a chiropractor, I think she brings a unique perspective. The 2 treatments I received has me much improved. I will see her again when I am back in Victoria.

Both know the body very well and use up-to-date techniques. They excel at therapeutic massage! I've been to many massage therapists in Victoria and Calgary - without a doubt, I totally appreciate their adaptability, excellent assessment of any ailments, and therapy that really works!

I saw Dr Paul Winston, Physiatrist, at Shelbourne Physiotherapy for a consultation about my nervous…read moresystem. I was interviewed by a medical student who discussed my history with Dr Winston. Dr Winston proceeded to inject my trigeminal nerve with a freezing agent without discussing it with me other than a cursory few comments. He had the syringe ready before he even saw me based on his student's interpretation of my history. This was not informed consent, which I didn't have. In 1980, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled, in the landmark case of Reibl v. Hughes, that patients should be told what the doctor intends to do, as well as what the significant material risks are, and anything else that a reasonable person in that patient's condition would want to be told. I suffered extreme pain and permanent damage to my nerve and temporal mandibular joint. Beware of Dr Winston and Shelbourne Physiotherapy for their association with a doctor who doesn't believe in informed consent. This was the worst medical trauma I've ever experienced.

I've been going to the Shelbourne Physio branch on Cook Street for about five weeks now…read more I've been getting IMS (Intramuscular Stimulation) and MAN, DOES IT WORK!! Jennifer, the physio, is relaxed, knowledgeable, friendly, and really knows her stuff. Even when it is hopping in there, you get the sense that she is taking the time needed to treat your injury properly. Actually, the whole clinic is a nice combination of relaxed and professional. IMS is not for everyone, since it involves sticking acupuncture needles into sore muscles. But it works like a hot damn.

The massage was part massage but also stretch, and wow, I can't even describe the care that went into it. This is THE place to go in Victoria.

My experience was great! Melissa is kind, intuitive and helpful and she made my first attempt at acupuncture a great experience which has me coming back for more! The studio is very relaxing, comfortable and professional. The front end staff are friendly and helpful, there's always delicious tea there for your enjoyment too:) The location is not downtown which for me is nice as there is free and easy street parking. Oh, and they have an awesome payment option!!! It's a sliding scale between $20-$40 per treatment. You just tell them how much you'd like to pay, they have a sheet showing their suggestion based on your income. PS - I also get my hair cut next door and they're pretty fab too!!! :)
