I’ve been seeing Steve at Motion Ease Physiotherapy for couple of months now. And I cannot recommend him enough. From the very first session he took the time to understand my concerns and created a customized plan to treat my Ankle injury. His expertise in physio therapy and dry needling have made a huge difference in my recovery process. And I have noticed significant improvements in my mobility and pain levels. If you are looking for a knowledgeable and a caring physio – Steve is the one to see!
