    Michael has helped shoulder pain and knee/hip mobility over the course of 2 months, and a continuing treatment plan. He’s very professional, personable and a very skilled RMT; each session I leave with homework that helps prolong benefits of the session. Front office staff are great as well, highly recommend!

    Michael Hodgson (RMT) is a miracle worker. I've been seeing him as my primary massage therapist for the better part of the year, and have never met a better RMT. I've been an office worker for the past decade now, and have picked up some really bad posture habits, which often lead to pain. Michael has been able to swiftly address these problems, and provide advice to mitigate these problems from coming up in the future. He has significantly improved my quality of life. There's three things that he does well (not in any particular order). 1. Theory/Root Cause - He has exceptional knowledge of human anatomy and is able to determine root cause, and provide a scalable solution (through exercises/stretches) to a specific problem you might be having. 2. Practicum - He is able to leverage his knowledge to provide exceptional care. He is able to dive deep into tense muscles to help create a much sense of relief in painful areas 3. Patient Care - He genuinely cares about his patients. After each massage session, he provides stretches and exercises to do. If the stretches/exercises are relatively complex/important, Michael promptly follows-up with an email so that you get a better sense on how to pro-actively mitigate these problems in the future. I would highly recommend seeing Michael Hodgson at this clinic.

    Dr. Lee and Michael have greatly improved my chronic neck pain and decreased my headaches. Michael is an excellent massage therapist who always individualizes each treatment to provide the most relief. Dr. Lee designed a chiropractic and acupuncture treatment plan months ago that has been very effective in targeting my concerns. Both practitioners are professional, kind, and thorough, and I would highly recommend both.

    Update: I returned to see Dr. Ali after a few years because I developed rotator cuff and lower back pain. He is fantastic and I am truly blown away by the progress in just a few sessions. My pain has already greatly decreased/disappeared. This time I decided to try acupuncture, and that experience has been positive too. 10/10 would recommend! Dr. Ali is amazing! I came in out of desperation because I had terrible neck and shoulder pain. I was a bit unsure because I had never seen a chiropractor before, but he was excellent about addressing my concerns and clearly explaining what he would be doing. He was also great about not trying to push me into treatments I was uncomfortable with such as acupuncture. I am pleased to say I have seen great relief and results from seeing Dr. Ali! I always enjoyed the appointments and found his knowledge and combination of massage, chiro and physio to be excellent and effective. Would highly recommend! The clinic itself is also clean and modern, with friendly and efficient receptionists.

    Michael has been a key role in my recovery when it came to my issue with sitting for too long because of overworking, which caused my syatic nerve to be pinched, therefore reduced my mobility in my right leg. He’s brought alot of relief and released alot of my tension and knots. He’s also helped me tremendously in recovering and gaining mobility after my sprained ankle injury. I’m really happy and grateful to be working with him and can’t wait to get on my month long recovery plan he’s putting together for me.

    I have been seeing Dr. Alexander Lee at this clinic for easily over 5 years and appreciate his care and dedication to helping solve my health issues with chiropractic care, acupuncture, and orthotics. Always professional and caring. I have brought my child as well and we appreciate both him and the friendly and professional staff at this clinic. Highly recommend them.

    Dr. Lee is a fantastic chiropractor. He is professional, highly knowledgeable and cares deeply about making his patients feel well again. Dr. Lee is passionate about his work and it is reflected in his approaches/guidance. I have received Active Release Therapy (ART), acupuncture and chiropractic adjustments from Dr. Lee, and his multi-technique approach has significantly improved my quality of life. I highly recommend the Ottawa Chiropractic Health Clinic and Dr. Lee.

    When I came in to see Dr. Lee, I couldn't even stand without experiencing severe pain. He has worked wonders on me. He made adjustments and gave me exercises to complete at home. I feel so much better now. I can now stand, walk long distances and overall feel great. Dr. Lee is very kind and personable. I am grateful that I have him as my chiropractor. He's the best!

    Great, compassionate care and no heavy drugs. Not sure yet how my treatment will go but so far so good! Will update as I go skong!

    Michael has been treating me for 10 months at the time of this review. Since I started seeing him, he has been able to pinpoint and correct all of the problem areas that stem from my lifestyle: a dual career as a concert guitarist and a remote office worker, and being too tall for the standard tools needed to do either one. After every session, he shows me stretches, exercises and tools so that I can sustain the release that he's given my body. He has given me excellent descriptions of what he's doing to me in as much or little detail as I'd prefer. I'd highly recommend Michael to anyone, but especially high-level musicians who are experiencing pain associated with long hours of practising their instruments. Freedom from pain makes your playing effortless (and enjoyable too!)

    Really good clinic, great staff, efficient and welcoming. Dr. Alexander Lee has helped me tremendously by using Active Release Therapy (ART) for my arm and shoulder pain. I'm so grateful. Thank you!

    Dr Cote is really nice and professional. I recieved a few treatments and now I am working on strengthing/stretching exercises. She is really good at diagnosing issues, explaining what's happening, and listens to my concerns. I strongly recommend her.

    I NEVER do Google reviews. But this clinic and Dr. Ali deserves it! Very organized and professional office. Everyone is so friendly. Dr. Karim Ali is a VERY VERY knowledgeable, caring, very friendly, and gentle Doctor of Chiropractic. He also specializes in massage therapy. Your overall health is very important to him, and it shows. His touch (deep tissue) was aware of how my body was responding, and he gave good feedback on what he was feeling and how I could work at home to stretch affected areas. I've been seeing Dr. Ali for almost four years now to get treated for my lower back pain. After every visit, I always rejuvenated again. P.s. You should also try acupuncture by him!! :D ;p Highly recommended ! Thank you again

    Dr. Lee is excellent. He's very knowledgeable, he knows different techniques, he takes the time to listen to your health issues and explain how he proposes to fix them. I highly recommend him!

    Dr. Lee was referred to me by my massage therapist who recommended him highly. The first day I had very bad vertigo and we discussed that this was the first issue that needed to be addressed. He showed compassion and concern while explaining that his assessment may cause the vertigo, which it did; allowing him to know what kind of adjustment was necessary. That appointment was two weeks ago and I have not had any vertigo since. I was surprised it only took one adjustment. I’m continuing to see him about some tightness in my neck and shoulders and I really feel like I am in good hands. I highly recommend him.

    Amazing service. Doctors at the Ottawa Chiropractic Health Clinic helped me recover from a rib injury quickly and pain free.

    I’ve been going to Dr. Lee for treatment to help minimize pain from a hip impingement almost a year now. He has completely turned around my life, ridding me of the hip pain and increasing my range of motion. 10/10 would recommend.

  • 5/5 Brandon L. 2 years ago on Google
    Dr. Lee has helped me with different types of back issues over our 2 year relationship. Always professional and to the point, correctly diagnosing the issue and fixing it with minimal treatments. Would highly recommend.

    I had an amazing experience with Michael, the Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), who not only effectively eased my volleyball injury pain but also showed exceptional care. Michael went above and beyond by providing personalized exercises and stretches, demonstrating a genuine commitment to my well-being. The clinic staff were friendly, and the direct billing process was smooth, making the entire experience top-notch. I highly recommend Michael for his expertise and outstanding level of care!

    I am a 70 year old woman with arthritic hips causing my right leg to turn inward making it difficult and painful to walk. Dr. Lee has used great care and caution with all of my adjustments on that leg and hip joint. In one months time he has been able to readjust my stance and gait and reduce the pain. I am very thankful.
