I had never been to a Naturopath before, but was having recurring sinus infections and was…read morefrustrated at always being on antibiotics. I found Dr. Komonski through Yelp, and honestly, before my first appointment, was a tiny bit skeptical. Anita is approachable and a great listener. After my first visit I felt confident I was in good hands. Now after a few weeks, I feel healthier than I've been in months. My energy is great, no sinus pressure and have eliminated coffee and yet don't feel tired and sluggish. My wife starts to see her next week, after seeing how good I feel and the weight I've lost by eating so much healthier. I am entirely impressed and thankful. I recommend Anita Komonski highly.

Back home, the holistic health clinic that I go to is run by the same family that treated my father…read moreand my grandfather; my absolute confidence and trust in them made choosing a new naturopath very difficult. After scouring different ND's bios online, I settled on Dr Komonski. I had my first appointment yesterday, and I'm already looking forward to a long-term interaction with her. She was friendly, listened attentively and was a real fountain of interesting (and useful!) information regarding my health issues. I left there with a concrete idea of the next steps required of me, as well as some extra recommendations. Feeling supported and well-directed has eliminated much of the stress related to my health, even before any of the steps have been taken! As an added bonus, she's a clinical hypnotherapist. I've been curious about that branch of healing for a long time, and had never found anyone that I felt comfortable trying it with; now I can't wait to book my first hypnotherapy appointment with Anita. Off to a very strong start :) I've already recommended her to my best friend, and I will continue to do so to anyone I meet who's looking for a great ND.

I decided to try a new place for my injetibles and found out Shawnigal Lake Spa has a new treatment…read morepackage for Botox!! I booked an appointment with Stephanie (who is absolutely amazing) and arrived at the location on Tuesday. First off, Stephanie is extremely educated but also very very kind and knowledgeable. She did my face and decided to do a lower dosage and I'm glad she did. The effects of the botox is the best I've ever had, and the price was comparable to what I am used to paying. I won't be going anywhere else for my freezing sessions, Stephanie is truly a master of her art and I highly recommend her for your injetibles Thank you for an amazing experience - you have a client for life!

Sheril gave me the best massage I've ever had. If you want just a relaxing massage, if you want a…read morestrong massage, even if you don't know what kind of massage you need, Sheril is your masseuse. +Receptive - You can tell that she is not giving you a "cookie-cutter" one-size-fits-all massage. She listens to you, then listens to your body as she works it. For example, my wife and I had both very different needs and we both got very different but still amazing massages. +Experienced - If I recall correctly, she used to do massage for the entire UVic row team, and then eventually a wrestling team. Also, as is evident from the other reviews, she provides a relaxing and therapeutic atmosphere. +Strong - Don't be fooled with conventional sexist wisdom that only men can provide the strength needed to work you over. Sheril is armed with hands that could probably kill, but you softies out there, don't be discouraged. As she says, "I like to work just before the 'u' in 'ouch'". She can give you the strength you need (and/or want for you pain loving fanatics). +The "je ne sais quoi", the "Undefineable" - I have noticed that lots of reviewers have commented on their experience with Sheril as magical, the best, fantastic, etc. Lots of these experiences boil down to Sheril's most valuable skill as a masseuse: she knows people and uses this knowledge to the massage completely theirs. When I mention to people that I get massages, they usually say that they should get one too, they just haven't gotten around to it yet. Please, take care of yourself. you can find 60 minutes to make sacred. Make the 'then' part of the if-then a priority, and make it happen now. You deserve it, and your body and mind with thank you for it. And when you make the time for the 'then', make sure you go for the best, go for Sheril.

By far the best massage you will ever get. Sheril is incredibly kind and caring. Her hands are…read moremagic! She also gave me a Bowen treatment and it cured my sciatica pain completely. I can't recommend her enough!

I suffer from a kind of rare condition called 'Heel Fat Pad Atrophy'. conservative treatment over…read morea six month time die NOT relieve my heel pain. It was bad enough I had to cut back on dog walks (out Doodle was not happy with this). Reviewing the medical literature I found out there was a minimally invasive procedure for the treatment of my condition. After multiple phone calls to clinics offering dermal fillers (mostly for cosmetic procedures) I found the practice of Dr. Anna Sylwestrowicz, MD . The office was very accommodating with my unique inquiry and agreed to meet with me just to discuss my diagnosis and treatment plan. One of the most vital requirements for a good medical outcome is a solid 'Doctor-Patient' relationship that starts with an open and frank discussion. I found my conversation with Dr. Anna (as she prefers to be addressed) to be all a patient could ask for. We jointly came up with a plan, discussed the various dermal fillers on the market, her experience with their use, possible outcomes and hoped for outcomes. I agreed to the procedure. Three weeks before the start of my hike, Dr. Anna injected my left heel pad with dermal filler. The procedure itself was tolerable and I walk out of the office with an order to 'take it easy' with my walking. For the first 5-6 days I was sore at the injection site but that was too be expected. After a week, I restarted my daily dog walks (much to the pleasure of our Doodle) and gradually increased my mileage. On April 23rd, 2026 I found my self hiking south on the Appalachian Trail from the small village of Damascus, Virginia. I was planned on keeping my daily mileage under 20km while carrying 15kg of pack. At that point, my heel was pain free. I hiked for a month pain free. I ended this section of the Trail in the very tourist town of Gatlinburg, Tennessee. This was a distance of 400km-pain free! Considering the pain, I was in prior to the injection of dermal filler this was a remarkable medical outcome. I am very, very pleased. As for the future, there are 333km left for me to complete. I will be back to the Trail in September for finish that section. Thank you to Dr. Anna and her staff in joining me on this journey!

I feel like she was going above and beyond. Will definitely be my Victoria clinic.

I had a Reiki session with Amanda recently, and was blown away by how connected I felt to her, and…read morehow good I felt afterwards. Amanda's therapy room is warm and welcoming, a beautiful safe place to set your intentions and let her hands do the healing. I love that she offers a chance to journal right after, and she does the same so that we could compare notes. I felt surges of energy flowing through me, I cried twice (buried trauma), and spent the rest of the day in a mild and euphoric energy haze. I'm new to Reiki and, as I understand it, you can have Reiki healers who do not talk or touch; I need both talk and touch to complete my senses, and Amanda seemed to know this, intuivitely. I'll be back, Amanda! I highly recommend her for soul searching and healing.
