    Had bone fracture on wrist from snowboarding and chest pain for few months, found this place online and booked sessions with Maryam. She’s patient, professional and knowledgeable, diagnosed my chest pain was due to muscle tension, so had one physio session and it’s all gone. Returned for the post physio for wrist, taught me few exercises which helped me to a full recover. Highly recommend!!

    I actually have no clue how this place has good reviews. Went to this place for an injury over a year ago. The moment I walked in they asked me if I had insurance. I was then asked by every other employee before they administered their treatment. Seems like they wanted to milk me for my insurance, which they definitely did. I went probably a total of 5 times. In that time: 1. I was never actually diagnosed with an injury. 2. Spent 95% of my time unattended to, just hooked up to a machine, or with needles in me (accupuncture) 3. Was told to just “go for a run” when I could barely walk 4. Had to pry multiple times to get rehab exercises I definitely wouldn’t recommend you go here, I actually actively tell my friends NOT to go here.

    As an athlete, I recently had the privilege of checking out the work accident physiotherapy and acupuncture clinic located conveniently in Yale town Vancouver, and let me tell you, it was incredible! Right from the moment I stepped in, I felt welcomed. Their team of highly skilled physiotherapists and acupuncturists designed personalized treatment plans to my specific needs. Their techniques were on-point, and I was amazed by how quickly they were able to relieve my pain and help me get back to my training. The clinic itself is sleek, modern, and has all the latest equipment, making my experience there as comfortable as possible. Overall, I highly recommend this clinic. Five stars without a doubt!

    Have hurt my shoulder doing sports and was recommended to come here. I am amazed by how knowledgeable the staff and the practitioners are. The moment I started explaining the pain, they read through everything. It's my first session here but I will be a regular. Direct billing is also very convenient. Highly recommend for sports physiotherapy and RMT.

    I cannot recommend Downtown Health & Physiotherapy enough! I sought their services after experiencing a shoulder AC joint separation, and I have been thrilled with the results. The team of physiotherapists here is incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. From the moment I stepped into their clinic, I felt like I was in good hands. They took the time to understand my condition thoroughly and tailored a personalized treatment plan to address my specific needs. Since joining Downtown Health & Physiotherapy, my shoulder has seen significant improvement. The exercises and therapy sessions they prescribed have been highly effective in aiding my recovery and restoring strength and flexibility to my shoulder. Moreover, their friendly and supportive atmosphere made each visit enjoyable and motivating. If you're in need of expert care and genuine concern for your well-being, look no further than Downtown Health & Physiotherapy. They are simply the best in town!

    I can’t speak more highly of Ed and his team at Downtown health and Physio. As soon as I walked through the door you can tell how much energy and time Ed and his team puts into his clients. I injured my lower back at work and in nearly 3 weeks I’m already back to 90% of my normal and getting better everyday! You can tell how much Ed loves his job and the results are incredible! If you need an amazing physiotherapy clinic that does it all then this is the place to go!

    I can't say enough about the exceptional care I've received at this physiotherapy clinic. The staff is not only incredibly friendly but also highly efficient in managing my orthotic treatment. They've created a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes each visit a pleasure. The timely manner in which they address my needs is greatly appreciated and has had a significant impact on my overall experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic for anyone in need of orthotic treatment.

    This is a very welcoming clinic. I just simply googled it and gave a call before I went. All staffs there are kind , approachable and considerate. Especially primary PT, Ed, who is very knowledgeable and respectful. He explains well before he does the treatments, so you can trust and be assured. The treatments that I have received from him have improved my torn tendon significantly as well as the severe pains from strains on my shoulder. I highly recommend this clinic. The person rated 1 from neighboring business obviously has purpose to insult this clinic.

The combination of sports physiotherapy and acupuncture was incredibly effective in addressing my injuries and helping me achieve a full recovery. Overall, I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking top-notch sports physiotherapy and acupuncture services. The team truly goes above and beyond to provide exceptional care and support throughout the entire process.

  • 5/5 Lex R. 1 year ago on Google
    I went to this clinic seeking help for my knee pains due to a history of ACL & MCL surgeries on both knees. I just want to get started and had zero expectations. I have to say that Dr Ahmad Rezvani is very knowledgeable and his approach in treatment is honest and rewarding. On the first session itself, I felt some improvement right away. After a week now of doing the same exercise every other day, my knees have improved significantly, and this is only after one session. Im excited to see where this journey goes and I would definitely recommend Dr. Rezvani to anyone.

    I broke my tibia and fibula in three places and have a rod in my tibia. After three weeks of surgery, I started Physio at this place due to 4.9 reviews on google. Now it’s been 8 weeks after surgery and twice a week with Dr. Ahmad Rezvani, I can walk in short distance now. The exercises that I have been given really boost my confidence of walking. My bones are healing on plan. I have been helped tremendously with my recovery and my surgeon said my physiotherapist has done a great job.

    I had multiple physiotherapy sessions with Dr. Rezvani for my shoulder injury. He is a thorough professional and a very friendly physician. I had acupuncture followed by a few exercises and my shoulder got better within a couple weeks. My overall experience was so good and seamless. I would definitely recommend Dr. Rezvani. The staff was great too!

    I would highly recommend Downtown Health and physio! I had a pinched nerve in my neck which caused severe strain on my shoulder and arm and couldn't sleep or drive. After 1 session, the pain in my neck was gone and am now following their stretching exercises to heal my shoulder. Very knowledgeable and great staff. 5 stars!

    Highly recommended place. The staff here are very accommodating and the treatments are so effective. I have been visiting for my several injuries after an accident with serious mobility problems in my wrist and shoulder. They using acupuncture, stretching, massage, etc in a friendly and professional way. Generally speaking, Doctor Ahmad Rezvani is by far one of the best physiotherapists I have encountered with.

    I have nothing but good things to say about Ahmad. Great treatment, He helped me make it through sports injuries I would not hesitate recommending Ahmad to my friends and Family.

  • 5/5 Mina 2 years ago on Google
    A very passionate and caring group is the main picture I can explain from this team. From the moment you enter, the reception ladies are very supportive and friendly. They help you pick the best time and therapist for you. The clinic is always clean and anything required for your treatment is available. My physiotherapist was Reza Nematollahi. He was always patient with my injury, and cared about my progress to being back on track. Step by step, they advance your treatment and one day you see you are way ahead of the recovery timeline. I told great things about this place to all my friends, as well as here in my review as it was my satisfying experience. Just follow your daily recommended exercises and watch your progress.

  • 5/5 mahsa s. 1 year ago on Google
    As a full-time mom and housekeeper, I recently had an amazing experience with my massage therapist. I was feeling my shoulders and upper back were constantly heavy and tired. He did an outstanding job and I am extremely pleased with the outcome. Right from the beginning, Sia, RMT, made me feel at ease and comfortable by understanding my needs and preferences. During the massage, he applied a range of techniques that were both soothing and restorative, and I felt the knots in my upper back muscles loosening up. Overall, I would highly recommend this massage therapist to anyone who wants an exceptional massage experience. He is truly talented and provides a level of service that surpasses all expectations.

  • 5/5 Rohit D. 2 years ago on Google
    My first visit was in Nov, 2020 for sciatica pain that was a result of a herniated disc. Ahmad Rezvani and the team at Downtown Health & Physiotherapy helped me tremendously to return to my prior pain-free self. I went from being in continuous pain to getting back to running, playing sports, and working out like I used to. If you are looking to learn how to improve your body mechanics to reduce the likelihood of re-injury, I would highly recommend the team at Downtown Health & Physiotherapy. They take a holistic approach to treatment that includes acupuncture in addition to traditional physiotherapy techniques. They also work through mobility and strengthening exercises that lead to long-lasting results.

  • 5/5 farzaneh k. 1 year ago on Google
    I highly recommend this clinic. Dr. Ahmad Rezvani is one of the best physiotherapists I have ever met. I had back pain for two weeks. After one session of physiotherapy, my pain was completely healed.

  • 5/5 Donya H. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a lower back pain in my SI joint, and I had 5 sessions with Physiotherapist Dr. Rezvani and Acupuncturist Dr. Ahmadvand to solve my problem. They are friendly and professional. The front desk, Atefeh, is so nice and helpful as well.

  • 5/5 Sam V. 2 years ago on Google
    Great service. Got an emergency short noticed same day appointment. Very knowledgeable staff. I could hardly walk due to my back spasms, Dr Rezvani really knows what he is doing and got me mobile and walking within an hour and pain free within 3 sessions.

  • 5/5 Kris D. 1 year ago on Google
    Few months ago I returned from my Himalayan expedition with excruciating pain in my shoulders. Mentally I was prepared for many months of fighting with pain with little or no hope for quick recovery. Everything change when good friend of mine suggested to try well known “Downtown Health & Physiotherapy” clinic. I don’t believe in magic, but the skills of the people are amazing. Friendly atmosphere is just another bonus.

  • 5/5 Nayyer S. 2 years ago on Google
    Dr Fatemeh Ahmadvand, Acupuncturist, is very professional, skilled, punctual, well-trained. Highly recommend. Staff are friendly as well. They are having direct billing which is really convenient.

  • 5/5 Seona C. 1 year ago on Google
    I visited this place due to my knee pain developed from exercises. After the first session I already felt much better. I barely could perform exercises or walk on the stairs the day I visited there. Second session later, most of the pain was gone, and now I feel completely fine and perform exercises normally. Ps. They gave me extra acupuncture for my insomnia, and I slept like a baby that night. I still don't understand how it worked, but it worked like charm.

  • 5/5 Steve W. 2 years ago on Google
    I highly recommend Downtown Health and Physiotherapy. I had a knee injury that prevented me from running or putting weight on it and caused me to limp. After one session there I was able to run again and the condition improved after each subsequent session. The staff are very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating.

  • 5/5 Majid R. 2 years ago on Google
    I highly recommend Downtown Health & Physiotherapy. As a result of working with keyboard & mouse for a long time, I had chronic wrist pain, and recently it was impacting my daily life. I had tried several physiotherapists, and it didn't get better. One of my friends recommended Ahmad and his team, and amazingly my pain was gone after several years of frustration.

  • 5/5 Oscar Ortiz A. 1 year ago on Google
    I had my shoulder dislocated playing rugby and the physio there, Ed Rezvani, was great in guiding me through my full recovery. He assessed me carefully, and explained all my options in detail for for treatment. Not only was he patient and a great listener, but him and the team at downtown health and physiotherapy were extremely friendly and made every visit feel like home. Would definitely go back and have referred most of my extended family to him. Thank you Ed!
