Fantastic experience: Such a wonderful experience with Emma. She is so kind and really took the time to put my son at ease about his treatment. The space she has created is so relaxing and inviting. It has a real calm energy that I’ve not experienced before with other physio places. Emma really took time to listen and then provided great information and exercises to help my son with his knee injury. We appreciated that she had such great insight about hyper mobility and gave exercises that were just right for him. So glad we found Emma and her practice. Definitely would recommend!
Fantastic experience: Emma is a spectacular Physiotherapist, with an incredible ability to assess injury and develop a clear, easy to follow physio routine that, if followed (that's important!!), will get you back to your regularly scheduled activities quickly! She is fun, friendly and extremely effective! I recommend her to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Emma is an amazing physio! Thank you for helping me!
Fantastic experience: Emma was terrific, explained the body well, showed me simple exercises and why they would have the result I was after. I’ve not used physio much and when I did was not dedicated as far as do the exercises, however - I’ve never had a physio tell me that all I had to do was the exercises and while she would check in me in a month, she thought I did not need another visit! unheard of! Emma has been a physio for 8 years but is as keen as a new graduate but with experience. I intend to stop back in and grab some business cards for my friends. In a word - she’s great.
Fantastic experience: Emma is so knowledgeable, experienced and friendly. It's like visiting a friend while getting amazing treatment. Emma provides one on one focused time and always gets to the root of the issues.

Fantastic experience: Emma is fantastic. She has helped me with various issues over the past few years and I always feel better after seeing her. She is kind, thoughtful and gives clear instruction for exercises to do (complete with a follow-up email with photos and examples for when I inevitably forget what I’m supposed to do). Her clinic is clean and calm, parking is really easy and she is always on time with her appointments. Would totally recommend Emma and her clinic. 10 out of 10.
Fantastic experience: Emma did a thorough assessment. She was able treat the issue and give me exercises to do at home.

Fantastic experience: I didn't understand how therapeutic physiotherapy could be before I met Emma; my previous experiences were all rushed, loud and impersonal. I benefit so much being her sole focus for the entire appointment, and I appreciate both her hands-on approach and her clear communication of what has gone wrong and how we will fix it. Both my neck and hip have improved after only a few visits.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic service. Emma knows her stuff.

Fantastic experience: I sprained my ankle during a volleyball tournament and Emma was incredibly helpful. She provided a thorough assessment and treatment program based on my injury.

Fantastic experience: Emma is an incredible physiotherapist. She explains injury trauma, provides care and recommends stretches that are easy to do at home. She helps me to feel comfortable and relaxed when I am sensitive to touch. She has helped me heal several sport and accident based injuries. Thank you, Emma!
Fantastic experience: Emma, at the Physiotherapy Collective, is an excellent physiotherapist. From knowing how to explain my injury in a way I can understand, to being the only person to treat me (not being handed off to a tech who might not understand my injury as well), to giving a manageable amount of homework, she understands the needs of her patients. That, and what she does WORKS! I've recommended her to at least a dozen people, and will continue to do so!
Fantastic experience: Emma is knowledgeable, thorough and a super lovey to talk to. Her new clinic is beautiful - I love all of the natural light. Whenever I injure myself I know just who to call - she’s saved my back/hips on more than one occasion (both during pregnancy and postpartum). 11/10, 5 stars, highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Emma is wonderfully professional and compassionate and never judgmental. She works with clients to come up with plans that work for them and has helped both myself and several of my family members recover from injuries. We highly recommend her for any physiotherapy needs!
Fantastic experience: I had a great assessment with Emma. She is so knowledgeable and informative as well as a great communicator. All while being kind and making you feel very comfortable to ask any questions you may have and discussing your personal goals and challenges. For the first time I feel like I am getting answers about my body pain and feel hopeful for the future. Thank you Emma.
Fantastic experience: I recently broke my wrist 7.5 weeks ago, and had my first appointment with Emma today, and I am so glad I did! After having a cast for 4 weeks and a brace for 2 more, my hand was still quite swollen and I had limited mobility in my hand and wrist. I looked up rehabilitation exercises online, but as I had no experience with this, I didn’t know how much was « too much » or how little was « too little ». Emma was lovely, patient, and very knowledgeable. She took the time to explain everything to me, advised me what to expect, and created my treatment plan. I left very relieved and reassured that I now have plan to regain my strength and mobility back! I totally would recommend Emma at The Physiotherapy Collective!
Fantastic experience: Emma was masterful at both identifying the cause of my back pain and providing some much needed relief. She is very knowledgable and an excellent communicator. I will be following up with her.

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Emma for multiple years now. She makes me feel safe and that I am in good hands. She has made a big improvement in the quality of my life.
