A Legacy of Compassionate Care Since 2000
Since 2000, Plane Tree Physiotherapy & Wellness Clinic has served the Scarborough community with a dedicated focus on personalized, bio-psycho-social health care. Led by Dr. Ket Lu, a highly experienced physiotherapist with over two decades of practice, the clinic is renowned for its ability to treat a wide demographic, from injured athletes and accident victims to children and active seniors. Patients consistently highlight Dr. Lu’s profound knowledge and his ability to explain complex conditions clearly, often using visual aids to help them understand their pain origins. This transparency fosters a strong sense of trust, with many reviews noting that he listens patiently and designs tailored recovery plans that address not just symptoms but lifestyle factors.
Expert Manual Therapy and Sports Rehabilitation
The clinic is affiliated with the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy (CAMPT) and GLA:D Canada, underscoring its commitment to evidence-based treatment. Patients frequently praise the effectiveness of the hands-on manual therapy and manipulative techniques, particularly for chronic issues like lower back pain, sciatica, and shoulder stiffness. The therapeutic approach combines precision with compassion, often resulting in significant improvements in mobility and pain relief. For sports enthusiasts and CrossFit practitioners, therapist Sadhica is highlighted as an expert in trigger point massage and knot release, providing effective relief for muscle tension and aiding in faster recovery from intense physical activity.

The staff, including receptionists like Amy, are described as courteous, helpful, and accommodating, ensuring a smooth administrative experience that includes direct billing for insurance claims. Patients appreciate the clinic's inclusive nature, noting that they feel comfortable and cared for from the first visit. Even patients with complex disabilities or severe conditions report feeling supported by a team that is eager to help rather than dismissive. The combination of a clean, organized facility and friendly personnel creates a welcoming space where patients can focus on their healing journey.

I ‘ve found Ket very confident in making his assessment of the pain in my left leg and hip area, and I agree with his diagnosis of the cause of pain which originates from the back due to degeneration .

Fantastic experience: Ketu is very knowledgeable and experienced physiotherapist. I have always been very happy with my treatment with him.
Fantastic experience: Ket Lu is very professional and efficient. I went for an evaluation session for my lower back pain. He gave me a thorough examination in a very efficient manner. Then he made the diagnosis and explained in detail what causes my back pain in front of a drawing of the spine. He suggested measures to improve my condition and explain how each measure will help. After 3 months of visiting doctors, chiropractor and message therapist, he is the first one who gave me such a comprehensive understanding of what causes my back pain and the key change in life style I need to take. Thank you, Ket!
Negative experience: I was initially told they wouldn’t help me because I’m a paraplegic. They eventually did but I had to argue.
Fantastic experience: I have known Ket Lu for the past 21 years. He is a great physiotherapist, very passionate, dedicated and caring in what he does. Anytime I have had a pain, Ket was there to take care of it. He works with the patient, creates a personalized recovery plan using a hands-on approach to achieve results. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing physio.
Fantastic experience: Very professional, good customer service, worth the visit, very structured, very friendly, overall very good..
Fantastic experience: I have attended Plane Tree Physiotherapy on and off for several years now and I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else for my physiotherapy needs! Ket B. Lu has many years of invaluable experience and offers a wide variety of beneficial therapies including accupuncture, massage, and TENS- to name but a few. He provides a comprehensive, professional, client-centered approach; with great attention to detail. His expert knowledge of anatomy and physiology further contributes to his provision of exemplary, compassionate, individualized care. Kets' assistant/receptionist Amy is also well-versed. She bills car and/or private insurance(s) directly so that their clients can focus on recovery avoiding any additional/unnecessary hassles. Whether your injuries are work and/or car accident related, I highly recommend the staff (and) services at Plane Tree Physiotherapy. So anyone interested in receiving care in a non-judgmental, supportive environment while returning to their baseline functional capacity would be well served to make their first appointment today!
Fantastic experience: Sadhica is excellent with trigger point massage. She concentrates on problem areas. She is pleasant, knowledgeable and experienced. One visit to her and most of my issues have been sorted out.
Fantastic experience: I went for knee pain to Plane Tree physiotherapy. Dr. Ket is very experienced and gave good treatment to mitigate the pain and provided lots of exercises to heal sooner. Highly recommend this place!!
Fantastic experience: Both Mr.Ket Lu and the lady at the reception has been very helpful. Mr.Ket listen well to my problems and give instructions and exercises to follow. It was really helpful.
Fantastic experience: I had seen Ket during the pandemic in 2020-2021 when I had a badly pinched nerve. He rehabilitated me completely. I am seeing him once again for neck pain due to bad posture. He is so helpful, knowledgeable, and incredibly compassionate and discusses other ways to help me outside of just exercise and he is so very kind. I will always go to him for my aches and pains. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Fantastic experience: I went to Ket for a long while since 2007. He is a good and kindness person. Definitely will recommended him to others.

Fantastic experience: Sadhica is my go to for all things massage. That lady has impressive techniques and magic hands! I always leave feeling so much better.
Fantastic experience: Best massage ever. Whatever pain and stiff muscles I had gone!! She has magic touch!!
Fantastic experience: Ket Lu explained my problems very clearly and walked through the exercises step by step in detail. There is a significant improvement of my back pain.
Fantastic experience: I walked in to ask about booking an appointment with an RMT and the asian male receptionist was very kind and easy to chat with. While they are fully booked for the rest of the year (its mid November right now), he took down my information in case of cancellations. I will update my review once I see a specialist from the clinic, but so far my first impression of this place is very positive. I hope I can call this place my usual clinic, as reviews are positive, and its not a far drive from where I live.
Fantastic experience: The clinic is clean, and the lady at the front desk is so helpful and kind. I saw Mr. Ket Lu, on time. He is a good listener to my complaints and very clever to explain my injury. He assisted me professionally, then gave me some tips, advice, and exercises to help me recover. It was a very good experience really, nice place, nice staff.
Fantastic experience: Both Ket and Amy are very friendly and considerate of your needs and wishes. I am glad I was referred to Plane Tree
Fantastic experience: Feeling better after physio. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Plane Tree Physiotherapy is a serious place for ridding yourself of pain and suffering, we were very impressed with Ket Lu about his care and treatment of my wife problem with her left leg. He took time to listen and made excellent recommendations which we appreciate. This is our first time with him and we look forward for more in the future. The receptionist Amy was friendly and helpful too.
Fantastic experience: Ket Lu & his staff are very professional, helpful and organized, they make me feel welcome. :) I found out about this clinic when I needed to go to physiotherapy for my foot, and it was close to the Progress Walk-in clinic.
Fantastic experience: I had back issues for a few years with sciatica pain. I am only in my mid 20's so I am quite young to have that. Been to two chiropractors and sports MD, I had relief for a few days but it was always coming back. I felt like I could not do anything. When I came to see Ket, he gave exercises but also did some hands on massage and manipulation with my back. My back pain was relieved and it stayed like that for months. I was able to get back to playing sports and vigorous exercises. Could not be happier with my treatment and their service.
Fantastic experience: In 2010 I had cervical spine surgery which resulted in me losing the use of my hand. After 16 months of seeing 2 other physiotherapist, I tried Ket. He was able to gradually restore the use of my hand, provided tools and exercises for me to do at home. Over the years I have seen him whenever I have had different issues with my upper and lower back. Appointments are easy to get, he is flexible and his receptionist is very accommodating. I highly recommend Plane Tree/ Ket. Most importantly he is honest and work in the best interest of his patients.
Fantastic experience: Ket is extremely brilliant at his profession and has treated me on many occasions when I needed to have physiotherapy. I do highly recommend him and his professional standards of work. During the time I was there I have never known any of his staff to be rude as I wasn't treated in that manner.
Fantastic experience: Staff is very nice and helpful, they concern your needs. Ket is very experienced and professional Physiotherapist and have gentle hands.
Fantastic experience: Friendly professional staff and I've had some effective physio sessions over the last few weeks; and I even have a better understanding now of how to prevent future injuries. Would recommend.
Fantastic experience: I trust this place completely to heal me. Key, the therapist is extremely knowledgeable and knows how to make your body aches and pains to go away.
Positive experience: Very rude people’s especially front desk lady
Fantastic experience: Ket is very professional and has thorough treatment plan for his patient, whatever needed or unnecessary are well defined. We are very satisfied with his professional treatment and advice.
