I am a patient of Makayla Latham, an RMT. After the treatment I feel relaxed and revived. Highly recommended.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My first time with Makayla, massage therapist at The Rehab Grid, Toronto, and I was really impressed!! She knows her anatomy, and thus, how to release tight muscles knowledgeably. With this sense of the body, she didn't need to ask if the pressure was too much or little, as she applied just what was necessary for the release. Oh, and Bonus: I loved her music choice!

But it all started with a visit to Sabrina, physiotherapist, to work out the issues in my body after fracturing my right talus and pulling ligaments and tendons. My body was compensating all over, and I felt still not back to 100% after 9 months. I am happy to say that walking out of my first session with Sabrina, my gait was another and with less pain. Session two she gave me a short exercise regime. After only a few run-throughs, today dog walk was literally a walk in the park! She's working with my arthritis in my feet as well, and I'm already really pleased with the results. She's also delightful and knows what she's doing.

Thanks to the friendly staff at Toronto Rehab Grid, as well!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had been struggling with significant shoulder pain and immobility for the better part of a year, which made it impossible for me to continue powerlifting—a sport I’m passionate about. After just one session with Sabrina, she not only assessed my issues with incredible precision but also performed manual therapy that immediately allowed me to bench press and lift again. I went from barely being able to bench 135 lbs, due to this injury, to comfortably benching 365 lbs pain-free after just two sessions with her.

It’s been months now, and I’ve remained completely pain-free. Although Sabrina is relatively new to the profession, she is extremely gifted and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her to anyone dealing with serious issues or simply in need of a tune-up. Sabrina truly has a rare talent for healing!

I would recommend the centre and Dr. Eric because he takes his time to go through all the procedures carefully.
