Fantastic experience: Malerie was great with my newborn, very knowledgeable :)
Fantastic experience: I love this place. After every appointment with Lisa my entire body feels good and relaxed. I was very dizzy for a while after my first appointment, even thought it seemed like nothing crazy happened during it. No idea how but it works!
Fantastic experience: Lisa has helped my daughter with an old spinal injury and is currently helping her deal with the pain from endometriosis. It seemed like no one could help my daughter until she started seeing Lisa. We are both very grateful for Lisa and her gentle hands. I myself have MS and Lisa has helped me with some of the pain that I deal with on a regular basis. Lisa takes the time to listen and assess what needs to be done to help us. We are both very grateful for all her help.
Thanks so much for the review Ellen! We’re so happy to hear about the positive change Osteopathy has brought to your family.
Fantastic experience: Loved my treatment experience with Malerie! She’s super knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend. Just some feedback as a first time client, I was a little confused when first walking in as there was no receptionist or sign saying to wait here for practitioner (not that I could see). I heard voices around the corner and wasn’t sure if I needed to wait somewhere else. So a sign would’ve been helpful.
Thanks so much for sharing your osteopathic experience! We do have a green sign at the front door asking patients to have a seat and wait for their practitioner, but we always value feedback and could make this more noticeable in the future.
Fantastic experience: Malerie is a miracle worker, for real. I was her yesterday for a session with my fussy, gassy, not sleeping baby. Last night my baby released everything, and had the longest sleep stretch of her life (almost a full 6 hours). I would visit every day if I could. THANK YOU, Malerie. I cannot wait to see you next week !!!
Thanks so much for sharing your experience with paediatric osteopathy! Everyone loves a happy baby!
Fantastic experience: Clean offices and the service is exceptional. Lisa is amazing and her technique is very effective.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience, Sharon. We strive to provide the best osteopathic experience!
Fantastic experience: First visit with Lisa. The clinic is well designed and clean. The treatment was exceptional I can feel my movement has improved. Looking forward to my next treatment.
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review, Kent! We will see you again in the clinic soon!
Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Malerie enough! I was recommended to her by my lactation consultant for my newborn who showed signs of tension causing poor latch. Malerie assessed him, educated me on what she's seeing and then provided me with at-home exercises to support my son following the appointment. If your need your baby to see an Osteopath (which is commonly recommended after birth), Malerie is who you need to book with!
We appreciate you sharing your experience with Malerie!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Malarie. She has been working with our newborn for the last three months. She has been calm, personable and a joy to go see. Highly recommend her for both children and adults.
Thanks for the review, Robyn! We greatly appreciate your feedback!
Fantastic experience: Had my first assessment, Lisa was very professional and walked me through what she was doing, making sure I was fully informed and comfortable. Would certainly recommend this therapy to anyone with pain!
Thanks for sharing!
Fantastic experience: Very professional, clean bright facility, friendly and put you at ease.
Thanks for the review!
Fantastic experience: After a year of chronic, deep hip pain with no relief, Lisa was the first practitioner to completely and permanently resolve my pain within a couple of months. She is a skilled practitioner who I highly recommend.
Thanks for the review, we always appreciate feedback!
Fantastic experience: Lovely experience with Nat, RMT. I Highly recommend Nat for her genuine care and wonderful expertise!
Thanks for leaving the review. We’re so happy you enjoyed your RMT experience at ACE Osteopathy!
Fantastic experience: I came upon Malerie through a different clinic 3 years ago, and she has significantly helped me in multiple ways! I cannot say enough good things about her! As an avid believer in holistic health I had been to chiropractors for 20 years! Not only was my spine and nervous system degrading even with weekly visits, spinal decompression, the list goes on and on, it had cost me a fortune to not even see any real progress! I was in really rough shape with my health, and was fed up and stumbled upon her from other positive reviews at her former clinic. It has continued to be a struggle throughout the years but she had always been patient, kind, Informative and beyond understanding. I have not only learned so much through her, but also have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know her now as a friend! I no longer have chronic neck pain or popping non stop since I've been seeing her and my posture is constantly improving thanks to her! Ace Osteopathy is such a warm, inviting space , but I will follow Malerie wherever she goes as she is truly the best practitioner, but even more a gem of a human being! So fortunate to have found her and Ace! ❤️
Fantastic experience: After years of chiropractic treatments I decided to try an osteopath for my neck pain. What a game changer! I wish I had known about this service years ago. Malerie has not only helped me to regain mobility in my neck, she has realigned my body and nervous system and it actually stays that way from one appointment to the next. I have less neck pain and less headaches! I was also suffering from a plethora of perimenopause symptoms that were affecting my quality of life for the last couple of years. I’ve seen Malerie three times now and most of my symptoms have completely gone away. I have more energy, more restful sleeps and I feel much more relaxed. I’ve also decided to take my two children to see Malerie as well for posture issues, hormonal balance and general wellbeing.
Thanks so much for your feedback Sarah! We hope to see you and your family again soon at ACE Osteopathy, Cambridge.
Fantastic experience: Malorie is absolutely phenomenal. I’m 36 weeks pregnant and have been seeing her for several weeks now. I had some horrible back and hip pain coming into 3rd trimester and after one session was feeling serious relief. My baby was breach for awhile and after an adjustment, turned head down within 3 days. I will continue to come until the end of my pregnancy and beyond! I’ll also be brining my newborn to see her. She is very knowledgeable about the body and very in tune with what my body needs without me having to say anything. Her office is always clean and a very comfortable temperature. She’s friendly and got me in quick. If you need an osteopath, she’s the one for you!!
We are so happy you're feeling better after treatment! We hope to see you again soon at ACE Osteopathy
Fantastic experience: Matt is great! He is very helpful and works diligently to ensure my body repairs in its time. I would recommend him if you’re looking for an osteopath in the Kitchener, Waterloo and Cambridge area!
Thanks so much for the review! Our osteopathic manual practitioners are always here to help.
Fantastic experience: Jerry is truly the best of the best. He’s incredibly skilled, passionate about his craft, and genuinely cares about his clients. Not only is he knowledgeable and attentive, but he’s also one of the most personable and kind people you’ll ever meet. I honestly can’t recommend him enough – everyone who knows him loves him. I will never go anywhere else!
Hi Amanda - thanks for your review! We are so happy that you have had a great experience with Jerry, one of our Massage Therapists. We hope to see you again soon!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been taking my newborn to see Malerie, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care she provides. She’s incredibly experienced, trustworthy, and you can tell right away that she truly knows what she’s doing. She’s also so gentle and calming with my baby, which has made a huge difference. Since seeing Malerie, my baby has been noticeably happier and more smiley — it’s been amazing to see the change! We always look forward to our appointments with her. I highly recommend her to any parent looking for a skilled and compassionate osteopath.
Nicole - thanks for sharing the positive change in your newborn! We always love to hear about happy babies!
Fantastic experience: This was my first experience with an Osteopath so wasn’t sure what to expect. I didn’t think my first treatment would even do anything the adjustments were so gentle, that is until about an hour later then I definitely noticed. I’ve had several sessions since and have significantly reduced trips to my chiropractor. Adjustments seem to last longer than chiropractic, at least for me. Lisa is fantastic and I highly recommend giving it a try
Thanks for the review Lorry! We are happy to hear you are getting relief from the gentle osteopathic treatments!
Fantastic experience: Lisa was recommended to me by a couple of friends. After years of massage therapy and more recently chiropractor visits, I can definitely feel a difference after a couple of treatments it's not a one and done but a journey! Thank you Lisa for your expertise in osteopathy
Jane - we are happy to hear your osteopathic treatments are helping and you're noticing a difference in the body. Thanks for the review!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Malerie for almost two years. I came originally for my new born and then started seeing her myself. I genuinely can’t recommend her enough. She’s incredibly skilled, attentive, and always takes the time to listen and tailor each session to what I need. Not only has she helped relieve long-standing pain and tension, but she’s also given me a much better understanding of how my body works. Every session leaves me feeling better and more balanced — both physically and mentally. If you’re looking for an osteopath who’s professional, compassionate, and truly knows her stuff, she’s the one! -Karina
Thanks so much for the kind words about Malerie! We're so happy to hear that your osteopathic treatments are helping with your long standing pain and tension. See you again soon!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience at Ace Osteopathy with Matt. He was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to understand my concerns thoroughly. I appreciated having insights from someone who understands sports specific movements and triggers. His insights were sharp and practical, and the treatment made a noticeable difference—I left feeling significantly better. Highly recommended if you're looking for someone who combines expertise with a genuine desire to help you recover and improve.
Thanks so much Mohamed! We are happy to hear that your osteopathic treatments are helping your sport specific needs. Hope to see you again soon!
Fantastic experience: I am so surprised the difference a couple of treatments for my carpal tunnel made!! I am splint free, vacuuming, cutting grass!! I have another appointment with Malarie tomorrow. Can’t wait to see what that brings! I was sure I’d be into a surgery and recovery! Carpal tunnel? PLEASE! Come to Ace Osteopathy first!
Thanks so much for the review Rhonda! We loving hearing about positive change osteopathic treatment can make!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Lisa and ACE Osteopathy to all of our friends and family!
Thanks Sara!
Fantastic experience: Our baby had very bad reflux and was extremely colic. We took him to see Malerie around 9 weeks old and after about 2 sessions he was a completely different baby. Now he is always smiling and happy and hardly ever cries! Malerie is so great with babies and is extremely talented in her work! Both my husband and I can’t believe how much her treatments have helped and we can’t wait for the next appointments for our baby!
Thanks so much for the kind words, Cassie! Always happy to hear about the positive change in our little patients!
Fantastic experience: Lisa is great! I had a hip injury through running and her treatment helped me be able to run again pretty quickly. Great to have her a part of the Preston community!
Thanks Steve - we love helping our local community!
Fantastic experience: Lisa at ACE has helped me with my jaw issues and neck issues immensely. she's made space for me when it's been urgent and has taken care of my family. I trust with her my care and will be a forever patient for hers.
Thanks so much Blair, always happy to help!
Fantastic experience: I've been going to ACE for over a year for Osteo and Massage and they are excellent, professional and friendly. Lisa has resolved so many long-standing pains I've developed and Natalie's registered massages are honestly better than any I've had at a spa. I'm so glad to have found ACE!
Thanks so much for the kind words Tina!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love and recommend ACE Osteopathy. The therapists are great, their booking system is super easy and the service is amazing. I go once monthly and it’s definitely improved my back pain.
Thank you for the review!
Fantastic experience: Honestly life saving with all the chronic pain I have to put up with on the daily. Really helps me relax!
Happy to help!
Negative experience: I arrived with my youngest daughter to an appointment only to find that the appointment was actually the following week. Lisa, who has been my other daughter’s osteopath for a while was extremely rude, not only in front of me but another client and two more customers. Her tone and manner was unprofessional, and we will not be returning.
Hi Amalia,
Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry there was a scheduling misunderstanding and you came on the wrong day for your appointment. In regards to the poor tone and manner you mentioned, I truly apologize if that was your experience and never my intention. Myself and our practitioners are always striving for the highest level of professionalism and patient experience. If you would like to discuss the experience further, I encourage you to call or email me and I can correct the situation for you.
Lisa
Fantastic experience: Malerie is phenomenal! I’ve been going to her for two years. I’ve suffered from chronic pain most of my adult life. I used to see three different types of doctors and technicians to feel any sort of relief and spent hundreds of dollars a month for therapy I needed every week. Malerie has replaced all of them. I only needed to see her once every two weeks for a few months and my pain was manageable enough to start going every three months or so. So, from once a week with three different therapists to four times a year with one. Not only has she saved me money, but she’s treated the cause of my pain and not just my symptoms. I can’t say enough about her! Her therapy is life changing.
Thanks so much for the positive feedback Kyle!
Fantastic experience: Had a really great experience today. Thankfully they had a cancellation as I was in a lot of lower back pain and walked out a new man. Lisa did an amazing job! I’ve only ever visited one other osteopath and I definitely appreciate the way things are done here. I will definitely be returning for my follow ups.
Thanks Nick! Glad you're feeling like yourself again!
Fantastic experience: I recently visited Matt and was extremely impressed with the care and professionalism I received. He took the time to thoroughly assess my condition and explained everything in a clear and thoughtful way. The treatment itself was both effective and gentle, and I noticed a significant improvement in my mobility and pain levels after just a few sessions. What really stood out to me was Matt’s holistic approach, focusing not only on my immediate symptoms but also addressing underlying issues that could be contributing to my discomfort. I highly recommend Matt to anyone seeking skilled and compassionate osteopathic care. It’s clear that he truly cares about helping patients achieve long-term wellness.
Thanks Michael!
Fantastic experience: I had an initial appointment with Lisa today after dealing with some unexplained tailbone pain for the past 2.5 weeks. It's a really cute office & Lisa was incredibly friendly & knowledgeable. Within 30 mins I already felt so much relief, I can not recommend enough! Thank you so much Lisa!
Thanks so much for the positive words, Clarissa!
Fantastic experience: Malarie is magic! I have scoliosis and often deal with back spasms and various other aches and pains because of it. Osteopathy is a key component to my healing journey. The relief I get is unmatched by any other practitioner.
Thanks for your review Melissa!
Fantastic experience: Matt is a great osteopath. He is friendly, caring and listens intently to his patients' concerns. He checks in frequently to assess comfort levels, and will adjust his techniques based on individual patients' needs. I have a few health and physical concerns which he takes into consideration when addressing any acute issue I may have.
We appreciate your positive feedback Shawna!
Fantastic experience: Went to see Matt for a shoulder issue and he got that cleared up quickly. Very knowledgeable, very personable. Highly recommend!
Thanks for your review!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Matt if you are looking for osteopathic therapy. Very gentle and skilled professional.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I’ve taken my baby to see Malerie 3 times now. At around 3 months, he absolutely hated being on his tummy and would cry immediately. Malerie has been a great help during treatments, explaining why, what she was doing and suggesting alternative positions to try at home. Malerie is great with babies and we have seen a huge improvement with baby now happy to be on his tummy and forearms.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review Gillian - we always appreciate it!
Fantastic experience: Fixed my low back issue fast and efficient definitely will return if I have more injuries in the future
Thanks Thomas!
Fantastic experience: Love this place! I have received treatments from Lisa & Nat both ladies are exceptional at what they do.
We appreciate you Gail!
Fantastic experience: We started seeing Malarie when our little guy was 4 weeks old (he’s now 4.5 months). He was very colicky and we had latching troubles given he spent his first 48 hours on a feeding tube and cpap in the NICU. By our second visit my little latched like it was something he’d been doing since day one. By 2 months we noticed our colic symptoms start to diminish. We went weekly for a while then at every growth spurt. She helped us with stiffness, rolling, his shoulders and hips, a lean/side preference he had, and helping him to sit as he wasn’t bending smoothly. I cannot recommend this treatment or Malerie enough if you have an infant. Even if your infant isn’t colicky, I think there is so much advantage in the treatment just for their growth.
Thanks so much for sharing this change!
Fantastic experience: Malerie has treated my baby a few times. First for her latching, helping to release tightness in her side, also her digestion and all over tightness in her body as a newborn. Malerie is very natural with babies and understands new parent's stress. She is gracefully professional.
we love Malerie! Thanks for your review!
Fantastic experience: Not only is Malerie an incredible Osteopath, she is also professional, knowledgeable and compassionate. I cannot recommend her enough!
Thanks Jacklyn!
Fantastic experience: I have been working with Malerie since June 2023. She has helped me immensely with chronic injury and alignment issues. From pain relief to regular body maintenance, I sometimes travel a great distance to find her at one of her clinics. I am always impressed with her professionalism and knowledge.
Thanks Andrea!
Fantastic experience: Wow, I was very impressed with my initial visit with Malerie. Her knowledge base and experience was immediately apparent. Thank you so much, so far.
Thanks for your review!
Fantastic experience: Met Lisa today and cant say enough positive things about my first experience with osteopathy. Looking forward to my wellness journey!
Thank you Heather - hope to see you soon!
Fantastic experience: Loving my experience with Katie Agnew! The clinic is professionally run, it’s a beautiful space and easily accessible right downtown Preston. I highly recommend ACE & Katie. Update 23/05/2024: had the best (by far!) massage I’ve ever had, thanks to RMT Nat Arseneault. Her technique was perfect for my sciatica and I felt relief after just one session. I’m going back!
Fantastic experience: I recently had the pleasure of being treated by Lisa and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. She is knowledgeable but also incredibly attentive. She took the time to understand my issues thoroughly and tailored the treatment to suit my specific needs. Her approach was gentle yet effective, and I felt significant relief after just the first session. I appreciate her professional and approachable demeanor, and the clear explanations she provided throughout the process. Thank you, Lisa, for your exceptional care. You are a true gem within our community.
Thanks April!
Fantastic experience: I’ve seen Malerie several times for my carpal tunnel that developed during pregnancy and continued postpartum. After just two visits I had regained almost all sensation again and confident that my 3rd visit has allowed for a full recovery. She also treated my newborn who struggled with some tension and neck issues from delivery .. again, a lot of success. Because of our experiences, my husband has now also booked to see her as he’s been struggling with back pain and massage therapy and physio haven’t been able to resolve it. I’d highly recommend Malerie, she’s fantastic at what she does and always a pleasure visit.
Thanks for the review Sarah and sharing your change
Fantastic experience: I would like to highly recommend Lisa. After reading positive reviews, I turned to her for help with my mother's severe back pain. Lisa was able to relieve my mother's acute pain in just one session. She also helps my husband's 85-year-old mother with her dizziness. After witnessing these successful cases, I am now also being treated by Lisa.
Thanks Maria - we love treating families!
Fantastic experience: Lisa is the best. She has me pain free and it's a wonderful feeling!
Thanks Rebecca - we love when patients are pain free!
Fantastic experience: I started bringing my almost one month old to see Malerie back in January. The initial appointment was to help with her latch while nursing, it has also helped in other areas such as helping with bowel movements and sleep. After our appointments she always sleeps very well which I can very much appreciate as a new mom. Malerie is fantastic at what she does and is very warm, welcoming and friendly. 10/10 would recommend.
Thanks for the review Christine!
Fantastic experience: I've been to Katie a few times now and I would highly recommend her. She is excellent and very patient-centered. I intend to continue seeing Katie and am also giving the RMT a try next week.
Fantastic experience: I've been going here for a while now and for my Osteopathy needs Lisa is highly recommended! And for massage I haven't ever had better then Natalie! I would recommend them both anyday of the week and if your in the looking for either then look no further!
Thanks Michael!
Fantastic experience: I’ve suffered from chronic back and neck pain for over 20 years. Lisa zoned in immediately on relieving the muscle spasms and knots I was experiencing. I would definitely recommend Lisa to anyone!
Thanks for the kind words Tammy!
Fantastic experience: Friendly and welcoming environment with very knowledgeable practitioners. Highly recommend!
Thanks Brandon - we appreciate it!
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Lisa. I had been seeing a physiotherapist for a number of months, when someone mentioned that an osteopath would be more helpful. I have to say that I found lasting relief from my first appointment. I have more movement in my lower back than I have had in a very long time. The gentle adjustments are much easier on the body and the immediate effect is still amazing to me.
Thanks so much for your review!
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Lisa and ACE Osteopathy! Lisa’s professionalism is top notch and her treatments are focused and intentional. Her knowledge of the body and osteopathy mean that you will come away feeling better. You will be in good hands with Lisa at ACE!
Thanks Vanessa - we pride ourselves on our professionalism!
Fantastic experience: Lisa's quiet confidence is an absolute comfort. She listened intently to what I was experiencing and stuck with it until she found the root of the problem. I had relief the moment I stepped down off the table after the very first adjustment.
Thanks Spencer!
