MOVE Therapies

I went to Move Therapies for help with recovering from a broken collar bone. The healing had taken place but when I did my daily walk, my arm hurt quite a bit and made it uncomfortable to walk. After 2 sessions I was able to enjoy my walks again pain free. But there was so much more that happened as a result of sessions with them, such as better sleep, better digestion, headache relief and an overall excitement about what I could do to keep my body moving easily and painlessly. There is something for everyone with neuro movement and if you are in pain this is the place to go. Don't live in pain one more day.

We have been clients of MOVE Therapies for the last 5 months, and every appointment, every experience has been incredibly positive and meaningful. Leanne and Dale are warm and welcoming, and their knowledge is immense. They have helped my daughter to be more aware of her body and how it moves. Her mobility has increased, and the sessions have made a huge difference with her scoliosis diagnosis. She moves with a new found confidence that she didn't have previously. She learns something new about how her body should move with each appointment, which has helped her to be sure of herself in extra curricular activities and in every day life. Leanne and Dale have helped her grow in unexpected ways, and I am so excited to see how far she can go with their guidance.

I am really pleased to report that my sessions at Moves Therapies have been really helpful. The reason I initially contacted Leanne and Dale was due to constant numbness and tingling above the knee and into the thigh area of my right leg. This has been progressively getting worse for approx 3 years. When I was sitting I was constantly rubbing my leg and it would even wake me up in the night. I was getting very concerned that it was starting to travel and move farther up my leg. I had been to the doctor and had X-rays taken. Nothing showed up. I felt better after the first session….lighter. The changes are/were very subtle. It wasn’t until after the third session that I noticed that my leg wasn’t bothering me as much. It took me by surprise because I really wasn’t expecting results this quickly. I had my six sessions and my leg was at least 70% better than it has been for years. After taking a couple of weeks off I was into see Dale again and was happy to tell him that my leg had not been bothering me at all. I actually feel better all over. I seem to have more energy and just feel good! I do not seem to have as many aches and pains in all areas of my body. I am learning to pay more attention to my body and not overdo it. Although I still intend to remain very active. Both Leanne and Dale are very welcoming and informative and I feel relaxed in their company. It is a total new thought pattern for me to get my head around NeuroMovement. I am working on it and am happy to find out that all the grey matter in my brain is still so capable of creating and building new pathways. I am finding out I don’t have to settle for age related pain. And this I find very exciting!

This therapy is unlike anything I have experienced. It's helping me with back and concussion recovery. I highly recommend them!

I engaged in this therapy because I had lower back pain and weakness and pain in my left hip. I was greeted in a relaxed, happy and welcoming way.In the one on one sessions, I relaxed, went limp and let Leanne (or Dale) move my body with slow, gentle movements (sometimes just inches).I had an awareness of the changes happening, sometimes hours later.I am able to walk and stand feeling both feet equally on the ground.I have no pain in my lower back and only minor pain in my left hip ifI have been on my feet too long in the day. I still continue to work with Leanne in group and sometimes a refresh with one on one.Believe that everything is possible!

Seven years ago I was diagnosed with Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR), now in remission. Six years ago, while spending time in Osoyoos, I was referred through a friend to Move Therapies and I have been with Leanne and Dale ever since. In 2020 I was diagnosed with Osteoarthritis in my feet, ankles, hands and wrists. It was an extremely difficult time. I tried various types of shoes to wear, as well as wearing arthritic gloves continuously. Today, with a minimum amount of over-the-counter medication, my Osteoarthritis has greatly improved.I attribute my well-being today to the fact that Leanne and Dale have taught me unique practices to help me overcome pain and attain an increased range of motion through gentle, slow movement techniques. I greatly value the work they do and I will continue to participate in their group and individual sessions.

I was made to feel completely welcome, and my thoughts about the instructor (Leanne Scott) are positive. Looking forward to learning more from her.
