Years later she has helped me through injuries, headaches and TMJ. I can't thank her enough for the difference she has made in my pain relief and management. Front desk staff Cheryl and Amelia are also warm, friendly and on-the-ball, rounding out an always excellent experience in this office. Highly recommended!

Although I…read morereceived chiropractic care since for close to 15 years, this is the first time that I've felt like there was actual care involved and I wasn't just rushed through a few routine adjustments once a month and then hurried out the door. My injury may have been centralized to one area, but treatment never was. A holistic approach is taken for treatment that is comforting and promotes better healing. Although I haven't been back to the clinic in a few months due to other circumstances, I was very pleased with the care that I am received, as well as the attention from the staff in the office who are warm and welcoming.

Amazing clinic with very professional staff…read more I injured my low back and could barely get out of bed. Did not think physical rehab would do any good. After trying self exercises, massagers and taking advil, I decided to give chiro or physio a try since nothing was working. Went to HealthMax Physiotherapy in Thornhill and was so happy with the entire experience. The front desk was so helpful and welcoming. The Chiropractor I saw made me feel so comfortable and was extremely knowledgeable. After my first treatment, I already felt so much relief and was able to walk without shooting pains. I went back for two more visits and my back pain was gone! I am so grateful to all the staff at HealthMax Physio in Thornhill. Would definitely recommend this clinic!

I have suffered with severe chronic pain for 15 years. During this time I have tried various…read moreclinics, treatments, drugs and therapies all of which I have eventually given up on either because I felt I was not getting anywhere or because some of the practitioners made me feel like they had lost interest in my case and of course for financial reasons. It is a very difficult and lonely road to travel when one lives with constant, never ending pain. Aside from the fact that it is depressing, debilitating and frustrating to try and live a normal life, it is also very degrading and embarrassing to constantly have people treating you, listening to your sad story and at times wiping away your tears. By chance one day I walked into HealthMax Physiotherapy clinic as it was very close to my home and I decided to try one more clinic before giving up altogether. I had the good fortune of meeting with the wonderful doctors, therapists and staff and immediately felt like part of a caring family and I have been receiving treatment ever since. Dr. Mirza not only devoted hours of his valuable time to talk to me, often late into the evening so as to try and determine the correct course of action for my various issues, but he also made a point of following up and looking into many different options to help me in every way possible. He gave me hope which was something I lost a while back. I cannot thank the doctors, therapists and staff at HealthMax enough for all that they have done and continue to do for me. I believe I have finally found the right people to help me on this path of recovery, people who will not let me give up even though at times it is so difficult. I will be forever grateful and indebted to them all. Lauren Thornhill

Been to this location for several months now and I am impressed with his adjustments, friendly service and genuine care for his patients. My lower back pain and neck strain from my work as a nurse have seen relief thanks to him. Street parking is available, but in busy hours it's convenient to use the Jane subway station parking across street from the office building. Katherine at the front desk is very nice and prompt with receipts for insurance purposes too. After adjustments it's recommended you go for walks and there are lots of great bakeries and local businesses in the area to visit just east of the office until Runnymede. Overall, I'd recommend Dr Mackay and his chiropractor services !

I have always had a "bad back" or should I say back pain. Going to Dr. Sly has prevented further issues with my back & has maintained it's movability & it's health. When I had to move it was hard leaving the kindness, educational, and heart of Dr. Sly and his team. Moving to Alberta, I didn't quite find any chiropractor to do what Dr. Sly does (I was in AB for 12 years). When I moved back to Ontario, I could not find him. However, I persisted for three years and found him through a work picture on Facebook with the name of his new practice. I called to find out if they were still in Canada and they said yes. They took me on as a patient again and once again I was being treated by the doctor who was so pivotal in the health of my spine. When Dr. Sly sees you, he doesn't rush, listens and talks to you. He takes time to adjust and help you. He listens to your concerns and even offers private care if you need to talk about something sensitive. At this lovely new office (430 Browns Line, Etobicoke, ON), his staff are so friendly, the building is clean and very accessible. There is free parking. There is lovely music to be heard with an awesome playlist. There is even a little kids center. The staff listen to you and you feel important, heard, and cared for. You are not just a patient or a number, you are a person, a person who matters to Dr. Sly and all his staff. But that's not all, there's more: Dr. Sly doesn't only care about health, he also is big on community and giving back. He helps and volunteers and fundraises for those in his community. If you want someone like Dr. Sly to be apart of your health journey and to help give back to the community, then Health For Life Centre is for you. If you want to see fellow patients like yourself smiling as they leave Dr. Sly's office, then Health For Life Centre is for you. His family wellness is for newborns right up to 120 years of age. He welcomes the whole family and encourages you to get a jump start on maintaining your health. Even if you don't have any back problems, there is so much more he can do to help keep you at optimal health or help be apart of getting you back to optimal health. Partner with doctor Sly for your health journey and your won't be sorry you did. I know I'm not sorry, one of the best decisions I have made in my whole entire life.

After receiving treatments from Dr Sly for several months,…read more I developed severe back pain on my spine at the 2 locations where he applied pressure during treatments ( just below my shoulder blades). When I complained to him, his response was first, no pain/ no gain.

I couldn't even bend down properly, or even cross my legs without helping it out with my arms. Andy massaged the affected area with precision and skill. After an hour it seriously was relieved- not 100% but amazing results after. I didn't know you could do so much in one session. You're not going to get a dim light, massage oil etc here.

Thank you for helping Andy- I really appreciate you and will see you soon!

I visited the clinic in person to book my first appointment. I let them know what I wanted to have looked at, then they promptly scheduled me in with one of their available doctors. They appear to have enough doctors on staff that finding openings isn't the hassle it often is. During my first appointment, I let my doctor know that I was experiencing some knee pain. I further explained that I couldn't quite pinpoint the causal event. After some short conversation about the type of pain, where it was located specifically, a discussion of what activities would aggravate the injury, and direct stimulation of the area, she was able to identify the cause and explain to me in approachable terms what the injury was. But what good is a diagnosis without relief, right? The first treatment started with some massage therapy to the knee and surrounding muscles. She then made use of a "shock therapy" machine, which is a tool used to rapidly impact the injured area, thereby breaking up scar tissue. What I'm told is a "class four" laser was used to stimulate healing. Importantly, she also introduced me to several exercises, meant to strengthen associated muscles so that I could avoid a similar injury in the future. To be honest, after the first appointment, I didn't feel much difference if any, but regardless, I gave it a second go, and thank God I did. We essentially went through the same procedure again, and as if by magic (but actually science) I felt zero pain by the end of the session. Sadly I'm not Wolverine, so this complete relief was temporary, but the progress was undeniable. All in all the experience was very positive. I should say that I've never been to see a chiropractor prior to this experience, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. That being said, I think they do fine work here, and I'd be happy to recommend them.

I sprained my neck on the Go Train (yes on the Go Train, can you believe that?!) prior to my business trip and I felt very uncomfortable. My whole neck, shoulder and upper back were so tight. Thank god I found Dr. Choi and Dorothy Ho! Dr. Choi is a chiropractor at this clinic and she knows her stuff, a few shock here and there with the machine (I don't have a science background!), massage and neck adjustment really eased the tension a lot. She also teaches you a lot of stretch moves to strengthen the impacted area so you feel better quicker and prevent future injuries better. To help speed up the recovery process, she introduced me to the RMT that works at the clinic also, Dorothy Ho. Dorothy Ho is probably one of the best massage therapists i had, the initial visit assessment was very detailed and once you lay on the massage bed just a few push here and there and she already knows which area is tight and require a work on. She did my whole upper back, shoulder and neck so well that I felt a lot better the next day despite the soreness. Overall, MSK clinic is very professional, clean and client oriented! This will now my go to place to get my massage and chiro treatments! Make sure you call to make an appointment in advance!
