Fantastic experience: Very knowledgeable, good selection of services
Fantastic experience: I was referred to the Osteopath Andrea Rascaroli and found him to be highly skilled, attuned, and genuinely interested in understanding the layers of my health and function. That level of curiosity and individualized care has been incredibly valuable. I live with ongoing biomechanical and neurological complexity, and it can be difficult to find someone who can work safely with my body while also supporting meaningful progress. Andrea has consistently approached my care with thoughtfulness, respect, and attention to detail. I highly recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate osteopath.
Fantastic experience: I had the opportunity to work with Christopher Tong and was extremely impressed with both the quality of care and professionalism throughout the entire process. Chris, along with the front desk staff, was incredibly helpful when it came to rescheduling appointments, and addressing the injuries I was dealing with. Thanks to Chris's knowledge and expertise, I was able to successfully rehabilitate both my elbow and thumb injuries. More importantly, he helped me regain the confidence to return to the gym without worrying about re-injuring myself. He took the time to explain the recovery process, provide effective treatment, and ensure I had the tools needed to continue progressing on my own. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and highly recommend Chris to anyone dealing with an injury. If I ever need physiotherapy again in the future, he will be my first choice.
Fantastic experience: Phenomenal staff and services.
Fantastic experience: I was very impressed and pleased by the level of attention and care provided by Christopher. I was dealing with a nagging shoulder injury and Christopher took the time to examine and analyze what was happening and a plan for my recovery. Christopher was very patient and explained all exercises and I started feeling better soon after. Definitely would recommend Christopher and Physiolab
Fantastic experience: Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Very helpful with my post motor vehicle rehab. Pantea, Leena, and Marcus have all been instrumental in my recovery. Thanks team!
Fantastic experience: Excellent experience with Andrea! Very knowledgeable Osteopath, he explained me the areas of concern and work extensively on it. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I was recommended to Mandy for acupuncture. She was very informative, kind and easy to chat with. Thank you Mandy! See you in a few weeks.
Fantastic experience: Great space and location. Friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: Super happy to have a Physiolab in the neighbourhood. 😊 I was looking for a Physiotherapist close by and was super lucky to be able to find Elliot. I play a lot of sports and he has been helping me with my various aches and pains and chronic hip/back pain. Elliot's hands on approach is making a difference. I am finally seeing improvements after being to many other places. I've also been seeing Brandon for my back issues and he is also very knowledgeable and helpful. Would definitely recommend them both.
Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Elliott for Physio since Dec 2023 for a variety of issues and I couldn't be happier. The first time, he got my knee to stop buckling after just 2-3 visits. With my most recent ankle sprain, he got me back to 90% mobility in the 6-7 weeks, exactly as he said. Elliott's extremely knowledgeable and skilled. I have no hesitations on recommending him to friends and family. Tiffany is just as great with dealing with my multiple coverages. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Seven months ago, on the advice of an orthopedic surgeon, I found myself in need of a physiotherapist. For the sake of convenience, I opted for Physiolab at Hastings Sunrise as this clinic was very close to where I lived. The receptionist staff were friendly and very helpful, and Chris, the physiotherapist to whom I was assigned, was knowledgeable, skilled, professional and a pleasure to work with. He developed for me an exercise program that effectively addressed the acute issues I was experiencing and which I could incorporate into my daily life long after my treatment was completed. I am very happy with the care I received and would not hesitate to recommend Physiolab at Hastings Sunrise to my friends.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience at our clinic! We're pleased to hear that you’re happy with the care you received. Your feedback means a lot to us, and we look forward to continuing to support your recovery.
Fantastic experience: This is by far the best clinic I have ever been too! From the receptionist staff to seeing Chris it has been such an amazing experience. I started seeing Chris about a year ago after my chest surgery. Not only did he make me feel Comfortable he got me feeling so much better. He put the effort in and really listened to me and took the time to get me back to where I needed to be. His recommendations for at home care were also very helpful. You are the best Chris! Thank You for all you do!
Thank you for your kind words and 5-star review! We’re so glad we could assist you in your recovery journey. Your well-being is our priority, and we can’t wait to help you maintain that progress!
Fantastic experience: Elliott is the go-to, if you need a physio he’s the best in the business
Fantastic experience: I booked my first ever physio appointment with Pantea to help with my chronic back pain. Although I was nervous about going she was extremely genuine and made me feel at ease giving lots of excercises and tips to help with the issues I've been having. It really felt like she cared about me and wanted to help me get better instead of trying to get me into more treatments that cost a lot of money I don't have. If you are on the fence about trying physio for any issues I highly reccomend booking with Pantea. I'd give a 6/5 if possible but unfortunately 5/5 is the best google has to offer.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review! We’re thrilled you had a positive experience with our team. We’re always here for your recovery needs, and we look forward to your next visit!
Fantastic experience: I came here for my ICBC case. Both Chris (physio) and Marcus (RMT) were very knowledgeable and professional, giving great explanations and information about my injury. Everyone here is really friendly - they made me feel at ease and taken care of. Highly recommend!
Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We are so grateful for your support and appreciate you taking the time
Fantastic experience: I come to Physiolab Hastings to see Chris, Brandon and Mandy. They are so attentive and are always able to help me feel my absolute best through treatment! I recommend them to everyone I know!
Thank you for your kind words and 5-star review! We’re so glad we could assist you in your recovery journey.
Fantastic experience: I had three goals when I met Chris after ankle surgery - get back into climbing, biking, and hiking. With Chris' guidance I was quickly and confidently back on my feet enjoying my summer of these rec activities, working smoothly through other problems that popped up along a non-linear recovery. Chris approaches physio comprehensively and enthusiastically, and the Hastings Physiolab space is welcoming, friendly, and clean. I'll continue to go back for physio needs as I work through longterm healing and pushing to do the outdoor hobbies I love. Thanks Chris and team!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot to us to hear that we’ve been able to help you. Your health and comfort are our priority, and we look forward to being a part of your continued journey to wellness
Fantastic experience: I saw Chris for two separate injuries – a hamstring strain and an ankle sprain – earlier this year and really appreciated his thoughtfulness with explaining the injuries and prescribing exercises. Returning to sport was an important goal for me for both injuries, and Chris provided me clear and realistic timelines, sport-specific exercises, and lots of encouragement! Would highly recommend.
Thank you so much for your glowing review! It’s wonderful to know that you’ve had such a positive experience. We’re here for any future support you may need, and we can’t wait to see you continue to thrive in your recovery
Fantastic experience: I have seen a number of different practitioners here over the last few months for rehab from a car accident. They have really supported me through what has been a challenging experience so far. I would highly recommend Leena, Mandy, Elliot, Dianne, and Brandon 💗
Thank you for your kind review! It’s so rewarding to hear that our treatments have helped you on your path to recovery. We’re here for all your future needs and can’t wait to see you achieve even more progress
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience working with Chris. I came in with a pretty bad case of runners knee and after a few weeks it got significantly better because of his treatment. Would definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience: Elliott Usher has been my Physiotherapist for many year and I love going to him. He pay attention to the injury and has been great.
Fantastic experience: Excellent customer service from reception and top notch support from the medical practitioners.
Fantastic experience: The best experience with physio I've ever had, Elliot is a pro and I'll continue to see him for multiple issues and maintenance on my body.
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Christopher Tong for a few weeks due to a worksafe Bc claim. Very good guys and knows what he's doing! Thanks for getting me back into shape one step at a time!! Front desk are wonderfull too! I also get RMT from Marcus, very good guy also!
Thanks Alex! We appreciate your kind words and will definitely let Chris and Marcus know :)
Fantastic experience: I tore my ACL and had a Grade 2 sprain on my mcl on my left knee from snowboarding, I live close to physiolab and I visited to see if they could help me, I could barley walk properly there, so I drove. From the moment I made my appointment and met the receptionist and then met my physiotherapist Isabell I had the best experience!! She did everything possible to get my knee from not being able to walk to having a healthy knee again!! Hands down if I you need a great physiotherapy experience visit physiolab I recommend them and Isabell was amazing!
Fantastic experience: Excellent results. Im very happy with the results
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Jackson at this location to rehab an achilles tendon rupture. Jackson has been a huge help to my recovery from this injury! He has a lot of knowledge on best practices for recovery. The clinic is also in a nice area.
Thanks Sydney! We appreciate your kind words and will definitely let Jackson know today!
Fantastic experience: Elliot is incredible. I couldn't be more satisfied with the care I received and wholeheartedly recommend him to others in need. Thank you for getting me back on track!

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Jackson. Will definitely be back when I need to.
Thanks Colin! We're glad to hear you enjoyed your physio treatment with Jackson
Fantastic experience: Ive seen both Elliott (physio) and Dianne (RMT) at this clinic and both are fantastic. Ive been seeing Elliott for years and find him to be extremely knowledgeable with a very calming demeanour. He has helped me over the years with a variety of different injuries. I’ve been going to Dianne for a few months now and have found huge relief from her treatments. Shes helped me with pain management and her neck massages have put me to sleep on the table on several different occasions :) Front of house staff are also very courteous at this clinic and quickly establish an easy relationship with patients. All around I feel like Im being well taken care of every time I go to the Hastings physiolab and would highly recommend it.
Thanks Dayna! We're glad to hear you enjoyed your treatment with Elliott and Dianne, we will pass on your kind words to both of them.
Fantastic experience: A friend referred me to Elliot for my daughter. She’s normally quite shy, but Elliot was able to put her at ease immediately. He was fantastic and made the session easy for my daughter to follow along, while being incredibly informative for me to understand how she healing and what exercises I could help her with at home!
Thanks Oliver! Glad to hear your daughter's physio treatment with Elliott went well. We'll be sure to pass on your kind feedback to him

Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Ken for years and he is absolutely the best. He's helped me through a variety of injuries and is genuinely one of the nicest people you'll meet. The new space is awesome as well! I highly recommend Physiolab for your one stop health shop.
Thanks for the kind review V! We'll be sure to pass on your feedback to Ken!
Fantastic experience: Elliot is awesome. I followed him over from the Main Street location. He sorts my back out in a few short sessions and sets me up with all the exercises and stretches I need for a full recovery. Elliot knows his stuff. The facility top notch. Spacious, clean and brand new. Great part of town to sneak in an errand after a visit. Donald’s Market is just down the street.
Thanks Adam! We're glad your sessions with Elliott were helpful and we will be sure to pass on your kind review to him
Fantastic experience: Had a great overall experience! Good customer service, friendly staff, great space.
Thanks Cameron! We're glad you enjoyed your treatment at Physiolab Hastings!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Physiolab on Main for close to a year and recently followed Elliot over to the Hastings location. The building is clean and functional, the staff professional and friendly, and Elliot is amazing. He's attentive to the needs of my body with its slew of problems, provides effective treatments and sound advice, and also helps with care plans between sessions. As an added bonus, he's lovely to chat with. I'd highly recommend physiolab to people in need of a knowledgeable and effective practitioner.
Hi Hanna, thanks for the review. We will be sure to pass on your kind words to Elliott!
Fantastic experience: First time at the Hastings location and the new clinic looks great! Would also recommend Elliott to any athlete that is looking to get physio treatment. Always does an excellent job.
Thanks Tyler, we're glad you enjoyed your first visit at Physiolab Hastings!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seen Elliott for 1 year now. I’m recovering from a bad car accident. Since day 1 Elliott helped me on my recovery. It’s really hard to find someone that really cares of his job and wants to help you. Elliott is both, he really cares of his job and he cares about you and your recovery. I would suggest Physiolab to everyone, people here are professionals, the place is welcoming and clean. Let’s give them a try ;)
Thanks Mattia, we're happy to hear that Elliott helped you in your recovery and we will be sure to pass on your kind words to him!
Fantastic experience: Elliott is the bomb. He brings knees back to life and heals cankles with a magic touch. Honestly the best clinic in the city.
Thanks for the review Andrew!
Fantastic experience: I have gone to see Elliot at Physiolab on main for few years and had great results in treating my knee injury due to running, challenges with my shoulder due to overuse in tennis. I have followed Elliot to new location on Hastings once again to treat knee injury (torn acl) due to ski accident. Elliot is amazing in setting a pre and rehab programs and make sure my injuries are treated and the recovery is speedy. Best clinic in town! Nice new location with free parking around the corner, studio is new with all new equipment and nice clean atmosphere. Definitely recommend this studio to anyone who needs physiotherapy to treat sports injury or ongoing pain. Super happy with my progress and results!
Hey Anna! Thank you for the kind review. We're glad Elliott could help you with your recovery with your shoulder and your knee - we will be sure to pass on the kind words to him!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Physiolab for years at the Main Street location and have stellar experiences with literally the entire team. I've had serious shoulder surgery due to a snowboard accident and needed work from the physiotherapists, massage therapists, kinesiologists , chiropractors, and acupuncturists. Having just gone to the Hastings location, I am even more excited with the depth of service they will be able to provide. The clinic is spacious and clean with thoughtful custom interior design. All the equipment is brand new both in the gym as well as the treatment rooms. I especially want to point out the plush massage tables in the massage rooms. I have had stellar results with IMS (intramuscular stimulation) to which I have regularly gone to the Main Street location in the past years. Now with this location, it's even more convenient for me. It is no surprise that the team is friendly and knowledgeable as those from the Main Street location as some of the staff members are shared. Parking is readily available on the neighbouring residential streets free of charge. Do watch out for the signage for permit only parking. Even with that- it's less than a minute walk. If you have had surgery, an accident, or are just looking for maintenance to be the best version of yourself, this is the place you want to go!!!
Thank you for the kind review Blanche and we're glad you enjoyed your treatments at Physiolab Hastings!
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best physio experience for me (and between myself and my once national level athlete kids I have had a few). Elliott made an accurate diagnosis and created a thoughtful treatment plan including a home program. All delivered in a caring way. Highly recommend.
Thanks for the review Simona! We're glad you and your family enjoyed your treatment with Elliott!
