My primary go-to place for healing when muscles get too tight for external treatment (aka massage)…read moreand require more intrusive intervention (ie. IMS) I found my current favourite physiotherapist back in 2018 after my previous massage therapist left practice, and she is FANTASTIC! Not a huge fan of acupuncture (bad experiences before) but for some bewildering reason I respond really well to IMS treatment like dry needling (Like the old Buckleys commercial "it hurts, and it works") Most of the time I go for needles it basically fixes my muscle issues like the next day (unless it's really bad maybe another treatment or 2) Man I'd be so messed up without this as a last resort when chiropractic or massage attempts fail to bring relief (the cons of being hyper flexible lol...) Coupled with some cupping therapy, heat packs and mobility stretching, they guide me back to my normal active disposition ‍ ‍ Highly recommend

I sustained an injury to my lower back and physical therapy was recommended. The owner came highly…read morerecommended and the convenience of close proximity to my work sealed the deal. To his credit, the owner was friendly and appeared knowledgeable while doing his assessment on me. However, the service all fell apart when he then delegated the work to his assistants-a collection of apathetic, 20 something undergrads who cared less about care than rushing though a demonstration exercise so that they can get back to their social media. The 'sweatshop' atmosphere of the therapist working with 15-20 patients simultaneously, didn't exactly put me at ease of getting hands on quality care. I also understood that the most important part of recovery was to do the recommended exercises prescribed by the care-provider independently. However, the generic exercises he gave me to do at home appeared to aggravate my injuries further. When I attempted to contact the therapist by phone to ask for guidance, I was told he would get back to me ASAP. He called 2 weeks after my initial call. By then, I was already involved with MOMENTUM Physiotherapy recovering nicely(See my review). To sum up, my experience was awful in that instead of receiving care for my injury, I was being processed like a piece of meat going through an assembly line, where squeezing as many people into a workspace supersedes actual care.

Great care & service is given at Performance Health. I'm a long time & faithful patient of Dr…read more Kisic's. As a patient prior to the pandemic, I was very impressed how often she would reach out to update me on any changes. The clinic doesn't require masks anymore but if you're like me and need to air on the side of caution, masks are used. As someone that's tried a lot of different chiropractors in the Edmonton area, I can honestly say if you can handle the drive (to & more importantly afterwards) this clinic is worth it. Both chiropractors are highly regarded by their patients, but I can only speak specifically with the work Dr. Kisic does for my body. I also can't comment on the current RMTs at this clinic (their rooms are upstairs) besides observing that they have a steady flow of clients that seem happy to return to them too. The current frontend person, Suraksha, keeps things going smoothly & thankfully is willing to help patients find a later time (if available) or happily reschedule within the week if their health is impacting them (from making the drive all the way safely for the original booked time or at all that day). This is something small to most people, but such a huge value to those chronically ill like myself. I greatly appreciate not being extremely stressed out when rearranging an appointment on top of a really bad health day that is already stopping me from getting myself physically to the appointment. Dr. Kisic listens to me as a patient, notes my biggest issues & asks great follow up questions to correspond with her treatment. She is especially great at communicating with someone that's having a harder day or week when getting the right words out is difficult. Be it due to heavy brain fog, going through pain flares &/or struggling full migraine issues - she can interpret it all. I'm always amazed with her memory for details. Even with her quick digital file prompts, it is impressive with the extra level she recalls on her own during the treatment when there's no way possible she could see the patient summary. Most importantly, she doesn't make assumptions on what your body should be doing with her treatments & works well with other practitioners in your health circle too. So take the time to speak with her in the clinic. It is well worth it. I also advise you to be open with the condition of your body or injury so you can get the best treatment for your situation. Include what does or doesn't work well from past practitioners &/or other modalities & who you're currently working with for pain management or quick patch ups. As for the clinic itself, access wise is direct from sidewalk (which is a high step up unless you're at the end of the strip mall for lowered sidewalk access). There isn't an automatic door button (honestly I don't thing any of the businesses have it at the strip mall that I've walked by, not even the newly remodelled spa). The door handle at the clinic is a large size, so easier to pull, & the door entry is good size for access. The clinic provides slippers for patients to use while there (make sure you read the labels so you're grabbing from the clean box). Everything from waiting room, washroom to the treatment rooms is kept tidy & clean. The washroom is very spacious & lots of room to change before appointment (I usually change into tank top & shorts unless it's deep winter). There isn't a baby change table in the washroom but if you have your baby with you, there's a large cabinet in the bathroom that would be wide enough to put a changing pad down. There's free parking available along the strip mall where the clinic is located & throughout the larger parking lot amongst the other businesses. This summer an extra parking spot was added between the clinic & dry cleaner entrance areas (it use to be a permanent parking lot divider). This change provided a much needed lowered sidewalk access point in the midst of the length of the strip mall. I don't think this change has anything to do specific with the clinic (as there's many businesses in the strip mall) but the effort to put the lowered sidewalk isn't being fully utilized. As it's yet to be fully marked so no parking occurs in the handicap sidewalk access. Stalls currently allotted for handicap parking are at the end of strip mall (close to the OJs, Subway, Starbucks, etc. area). There are other parking options further into the general parking lot but parking along the strip mall is safer in winter. Especially if you struggle with any mobility or stability issues. Overall, this is a solid place to try out if you're in need of a new chiropractor or if you're struggling to find a chiropractor that really gets how to work with those in chronic pain &/or chronic migraine issues. I think it's a good sign when patients for both practitioners seem to be always happy with their adjustments & ongoing care.

After coming to him for quite a while the pain went away completely. After my first session it was significantly reduced. I continue to come see him for my chiropractic needs and it's helped a lot. The receptionists are friendly and kind. It's a nice clean environment. This location is also very convenient for me it's very close to where I live so making an appointment is easy for me. Still after over a year my knees have not hurt after he helped get rid of my issue. I also love that he gives me effective stretches and movements to lessen my injury from coming back.

What I needed was someone who could get it sorted out for me as it was way above my pay grade. That someone was Dr. Breckenridge. He was very thorough in his gathering of information for his intake, right back to when I was young, then he proceeded to do a visual inspection, and asked a few more questions. I could see the wheels were turning as it had given him lots to think about. He knew exactly what to do, like he had done it before. He went to work on me and then after that he showed me some great and easy to do stretches and then sent me to the next phase of the treatment, electrotherapy! Its very effective and not at all painful like it sounds. I don't understand what it does or how it works, but I assure you it is effective. I saw results after my first visit. His intention is to get you fixed and set you up to live pain free just to be a support when you need him. The team at Brentwood Chiropractic are top notch, I would recommend them to anyone!

My knee has been bothering me so I understand from Gord it is my quads needing serious attention from ME, myself - so much gratitude for being guided back. to him in this time! The needles? Yes, they hurt. But in Gord's expert hands, the discomfort is purposeful -- and the results speak for themselves. He has a true calling: to heal those who find their way to him. I left feeling grounded, restored, and genuinely cared for. The space itself carries its own energy. Walking into College Plaza, I was immediately struck by the warmth -- plants everywhere, and the beautiful stained glass that once graced the previous entrance now installed here, casting that same gentle, welcoming light. As someone who has a personal connection to this building going all the way back to the mid-80s, stepping in felt like coming full circle. If you are guided to Gord, trust it. The healing is real.
