Vital Point Clinic - Massage Therapy Acupuncture & Active Release Technique

I lost my massage therapist when she moved back out west due to her husband's job. Had been happy with her replacement but then she went off on maternity leave so I was once again left looking for a good therapist when my chiro suggested this spot. Now it's out of the way for me coming from the east end but I have to say I am very very happy with this clinic! Lesley has been absolutely amazing and it's like she has been massaging me for years! Highly recommend this clinic

Michael helped me tremendously in healing and getting back to playing sports in no time. Originally I had went to physio and was told I would be there three times a week for up to six weeks with lower back issues. I saw Michael after this, for ART, and he was able to identify my back tightness was due to my hamstrings being too tight. He helped me get back to normal functioning in a few sessions. I would highly recommend Vital Point massage!

I had a slip and fall over a month ago with injury to my arm that justwould not improve over time. I had an appointment this week with Brittany Gaudet, the clinic's registered acupuncturist.So genuinely pleased to say that trying something different had sucha positive effect on how I am feeling. Brittany took the time to get a thorough picture of the problem/problems (because sometimes, there really is more than one) and then treat accordingly. She is knowledgeable, gentle and such an easy person to talk to. What alsodrew me to seek out her services was the knowledge that she was also a massage therapist, which gives her extra insight.Looking forward to the next appointment to see if we can kick this problem to the curb!

I have been a client of Mike Michaud's for the better part of 12 years. Everything from a torn abductor muscle to back, hip and shoulder issues.I have found Mike to be very knowledgeable, informed and very current with new massage therapy techniques (ART). The fact that he is an athlete himself allows him to understand and relate to your own injuries. I continue monthly for what I consider maintenance issues as I am a very active 62 year old person and he keeps me that way.I highly recommend Mike and the Vital Point Clinic.Laurie Joseph Braden

Britanny is our acupuncturist for the past 3 years and we love her. She is patient, corteuos and guides you each step of the process. I strongly recommend her services to anyone in Ottawa.

I generally don't believe in quick cures. Michael Michaud changed my opinion. I've suffered from chronic sciatica for several years and this summer experienced additional acute severe back pain and spasms when I pulled a muscle in my back. My family doctor referred me for ART. After a single session and conscientiously performing the stretches and exercises Michael demonstrated, I was significantly relieved of the acute pain and the sciatica abated. I've experienced 4 sessions and feel essentially cured of an ailment I've endured for several years as well as the acute pain from the single injury....as long as I follow his directions to exercise daily to strengthen my core. Thank you so much, Michael (Miracle Mike).

Professional, friendly staff who are involved in sports and are experts in dealing with sports related injuries. As a long distance runner, I've been seeing Michael Michaud for ART massage therapy when I've needed it for the past 7 years.

Michael is extremely knowledgeable and always gives amazing advice and exercises to go home with. Great service!

So relaxing and this is the massage im looking for so long. Looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommended.

I have got massage and accupuncture with Britrany and ART with Michael for a few years and I love this clinic. They are so knowledgable and friendly and have done wonders dor helping some of my long standing physical pain concerns.
