It incorporates the core elements of Ballet Barre, Pilates, Yoga and Qigong to provide a workout that strengthens, stretches and harmonises the body, mind and spirit. This workout will give you some down time and relaxation but will also make you aware of muscles you never thought you had!

In doing so, we relax, cleanse, detoxify, nourish and strengthen the body. Qigong provides you with techniques to improve your health, vitality and spirituality.
My physio referred me to Nicole when he'd decided he'd had enough of my complaining. At the first session, Nicole listened attentively and gently began work on my myriad sore spots. I told her "I was tough and could stand pain" so she ramped up accordingly. Each treatment, she outlines the plan of attack and what I can expect by way of increased mobility (and, occasionally, bruising if she uses spoons, which I love!).

Active Healing Hands, Edward has been able to offer me healing hands through my injuries, stress of work and occasional self-maintenance days. I have always felt comfortable, cared for and safe on his table. While encouraging me to take an active part in my own treatment by showing me stretches I can do on my own. Thank you, Edward,

Please be sure to double check the address, especially if you have booked with Susan Barsanti. Unfortunately, my husband went to the other massage centre a few doors down where there is also a Sue. It was our mistake; unfortunately, he was not told that he might be at the wrong location. Thank goodness Susan Barsanti was extremely understanding and did not expect us to pay for our missed visit.

I had come here once to get a massage from Susan. The massage wasn't good at all, my muscles were still sore after leaving.
The thing that bothered me most is that she spoke badly about the owner and about how much money she was making. Why would I ever come back to such a place?

This review is based on my experience working with Susan Barsanti, an RMT at the clinic.
If I could give higher than 5 stars, I would. I've seen 20+ RMTs at other clinics and spas, and Sue is by far the best RMT I've ever had. For years, I have had a shoulder injury that caused limited mobility. I had seen physio therapists, sports docs, chiros, and other RMTs. Within a few sessions of focused therapeutic treatments, Sue helped me gain range of motion again. I honestly never knew if I would be able to lift my arm again, and she made it happen.
I've followed her to 3 different clinics around the

Following my first massage by Sue Barsanti I became a repeat client. Best massage treatment I have ever received. Repeatedly. I return every month for a tune-up.

I've had the fortune of being seen by Ed twice. His warm candor and professionalism were immediately apparent. He takes a holistic approach by inquiring about my history and day-to-day activity, honing in on what exactly is causing my discomfort. I've never received such an effective treatment which dissipated the pain away for weeks. His follow-up call showed his vested interest in my recovery. I had to return because I've never had a therapist like Ed. This is a genuine fellow that doesn't accept tips, highlighting his focus on service delivery. Safe to say I've found an honest and valuable therapist

I have been a regular patient at Active Healing Centre for years. After I developed a seized shoulder with limited mobility, a friend recommended Ed. After several sessions, my range of motion improved and the pain subsided. Since then, I have continued regular treatments since I carry stress and tension in my shoulders.
Ed discusses your problem/changes prior to each session and will focus extra attention on these areas. He delivers a therapeutic massage and disperses those deep tissue knots. Plus he will give you exercises that you can do at home to address specific problems. Ed is friendly

My physiotherapist referred me to the Active Healing Centre a couple of years ago for deep tissue massage therapy. After a few visits I noticed such a difference in my range of motion that I’ve continued going every month. He always has a quick consultation before each massage to target problem areas and I’m often given stretches and exercises to do at home. He’s friendly and professional and it’s a very comfortable, clean environment. I’ve been to many RMT’s over the years but I’ve never experienced the results that I’ve had over the past couple of years.
