The night after I received a session I could sleep all night and even slept in. (Before this session I couldn't get a night's sleep because of pain in the shoulders!) Nami blended Thai massage with oil massage ... Due to a surgery she could not work on my right leg but she did an excellent job of integrating the rest of the massage such that I felt completely rejuvenated from the treatment. I teach massage and energy work myself and would highly recommend her work and technique.

Sheril gave me the best massage I've ever had. If you want just a relaxing massage, if you want a…read morestrong massage, even if you don't know what kind of massage you need, Sheril is your masseuse. +Receptive - You can tell that she is not giving you a "cookie-cutter" one-size-fits-all massage. She listens to you, then listens to your body as she works it. For example, my wife and I had both very different needs and we both got very different but still amazing massages. +Experienced - If I recall correctly, she used to do massage for the entire UVic row team, and then eventually a wrestling team. Also, as is evident from the other reviews, she provides a relaxing and therapeutic atmosphere. +Strong - Don't be fooled with conventional sexist wisdom that only men can provide the strength needed to work you over. Sheril is armed with hands that could probably kill, but you softies out there, don't be discouraged. As she says, "I like to work just before the 'u' in 'ouch'". She can give you the strength you need (and/or want for you pain loving fanatics). +The "je ne sais quoi", the "Undefineable" - I have noticed that lots of reviewers have commented on their experience with Sheril as magical, the best, fantastic, etc. Lots of these experiences boil down to Sheril's most valuable skill as a masseuse: she knows people and uses this knowledge to the massage completely theirs. When I mention to people that I get massages, they usually say that they should get one too, they just haven't gotten around to it yet. Please, take care of yourself. you can find 60 minutes to make sacred. Make the 'then' part of the if-then a priority, and make it happen now. You deserve it, and your body and mind with thank you for it. And when you make the time for the 'then', make sure you go for the best, go for Sheril.

By far the best massage you will ever get. Sheril is incredibly kind and caring. Her hands are…read moremagic! She also gave me a Bowen treatment and it cured my sciatica pain completely. I can't recommend her enough!

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.

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.
