Benefits of Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy can help you with rehabilitation from injuries or repetitive strain caused by working in an office, general chronic pain, or sports performance. Some of the benefits of physiotherapy include overall decreased pain, increased strength and coordination, and improved joint mobility. Physiotherapists can even help those who are not in pain, and those just wanting to move better and enhance their quality of life.

Peak Health is my go to place to keep my body functioning as it should, all their services are top notch. As a career firefighter I need to keep on top of all the little aches and pains so that I can function when needed, Dr. Durnin and his team help with that. I highly recommend Peak Health & Performance.

Dr Creppin was instrumental in helping me to recover from a skiing injury. His dedication, enthusiasm, attention to detail and help generating a rehab program have given me my life back. I highly recommend him!!
- Sue Pedersen
I have been coming here pretty much since they were open. Great to see what it's grown to what it is now. Kate and Evan are awesome and really know how to hire an all-star team. The staff at the counter are super friendly, especially Jana! It's always welcoming being greeted by them when I come in for my appointments.
I've had Blair as my Physio to help get me recovered from years of back pain and a leg surgery from 2 years ago, Claire as my Chiro to aid me on the tail end of my recovery (Thanks you two! I'm back to weight training now!) and Julie and Jodi as my massage therapists, they are great and really know how to work out any tightness I've had so far.
I've been to other clinics before, but Peak Health & Performance stands out from the rest!
- Chris Penaranda
Extremely helpful, friendly, professional staff. Best place in the city for physio. They've done an incredible job helping me manage three concussions, getting me back on track quicker than I thought possible.
- William C.
I had an excellent experience at Peak Health. Everyone was very pleasant and professional. I would definitely recommend Alyssa as she helped me regain significant movement in my shoulder after an accident. Hopefully I don’t get into anymore accidents, but if I do, I know where I’m going to get it dealt with.
- Alvin M.
I have been working with Sydney since she was still a student, and she is an incredibly skilled massage therapist. Her commitment to teaching her clients, setting clear boundaries/expectations and her communication style is such an important aspect of her therapeutic relationship with clients. I think you could get a great massage with many therapists, but Sydney really teaches you what your body has been doing, how to rehabilitate it, and helps to open up tight muscles you didn’t even know you had!
- Caitlin d’Esterre
Honestly, by far one of the best clinics I’ve ever attended. From the very moment you walk in it feels comfortable and warm. Everyone is so kind and takes an interest in your recovery and building a connection. If you see someone new they are already up to date on what you last came in for. It’s such a well-oiled machine. Highly recommended! Keep it up guys!
- Arsaima S.
The most friendly upbeat location I've been to in the city. Mike is my favourite massage therapist! He is super friendly, with just the right touch, and all the knowledge of the human body, to give a great feeling healing massage.
- Blake Ward
I've been going to Alyssa at Peak Health for a couple months now and my back feels so much better! She evaluated me, gave me stretches to work on and showed me how to do them in an easy to follow routine. Having other services and a "one-stop" shop is very convenient as I also receive massages from Julie and she works wonders on my back. Highly recommend both of them and the entire team at Peak Health, thanks again!
