AC Physiotherapy

Anthony at Acphysiotherapy is awesome. I've had a number of issues from my shoulder, to my back and my neck. Anthony has been able to help me with all of them. He takes time to explain what's causing the issue and what we need to do to help alleviate the issue. He's friendly, knowledgeable and will definitely have you feeling better than you did before you walked into his office.

Anthony is an exemplary professional and extremely knowledgeable, yet able to easily translate anatomical concepts into layman's terms. He is a great conversationalist and makes you feel comfortable and assured even when a diagnosis is uncomfortable to accept.He accurately diagnosed and helped me rehab my infraspinatus shoulder muscle tear; with his guidance, I made a full recovery after having previously lost all strength in my shoulder due to the injury. Thanks Anthony! I highly recommend his services.

I highly recommend Anthony at AC Physiotherapy. He is very friendly, approachable, professional, and knowledgeable! After reading my report on my diagnosis of scoliosis, he has provided me with tons of exercises/stretches to help with my upper and lower back pain. He writes the exercises/stretches down and draws small pictures to help me remember them, which I appreciate. He also performed IMS (dry needling) on me in one of our sessions, and he was very professional with it. This method helped with my back pain! Anthony is definitely a physiotherapist you want to have :)

The BEST Physiotherapist I've had by far. This is the first time I've actually been educated in regards to my injuries and how I can recover and prevent from them. Anthony also has an awesome personality, great conversationalist, and very professional. I highly recommend him to anyone.

I injured by back, my colleague recommended Anthony at AC physiotherapy located in north Burnaby. I was thoroughly impressed with his knowledge of the body. Without saying anything about my past, Anthony was able to detect residual scar tissue from a broken rib I had 12 years prior. He accurately predicted in how many days my injury would improve, provided useful strengthening and stretching exercises to do at home, and he didn’t push for unnecessary additional visits once I was better. Strongly Recommend AC Physiotherapy.

AC Physiotherapy has a been absolutely amazing for me, and I couldn't be happier with the care I've received from Anthony.I came in with a ligament tear in my foot that had been bothering me going on 7+ months. After working with my GP and podiatrist, I needed help getting back to activity and developing a program that would help me strengthen my feet and get back to hiking and running. Anthony delivered just that, and I am utterly amazed at my progress in just a month and a half. My feet are stronger than they ever were before starting treatment with him.The clinic is clean, bright, and comfortable, and Anthony is incredibly professional and personable. He answers every question I might have, he's on time, and I never feel rushed during my visits. He takes the time to walk me through every exercise until I get it right and listens to how I'm feeling. I've learned so much about my body's biomechanics from him, and he is very encouraging when introducing new treatments.I'm so glad I chose to visit him during this phase of my recovery, and I honestly don't know where I would be without his help and advice! BOOK HIM!!!

Anthony is amazing. I went in for shoulder/neck pain related to lifting too much weight, resulting in extreme tightness and immobility. Anthony immediately diagnosed which muscles were strained through a vast array of tests, and then proceeded to explain exactly what was happening and where. He used massage and needling techniques to give me some immediate relief, and prescribed me some simple exercises to continue recovery on my own time. I already feel much better knowing what was causing my pain, how to prevent it, and how to handle it should it reoccur. Not only is Anthony extremely personable and professional, he cares deeply about his craft and his patients, and is obviously incredibly knowledgeable and capable. If you experience any pain whatsoever, be it new or chronic, I highly recommend seeing him as you could be one appointment away from improving your quality of life greatly.

Anthony is highly personable, and goes above and beyond to explain his diagnosis, treatment, and recommended exercises. The dry needling instantly relieved chronic muscle pain (I'm training for my second marathon), and his exercises were easy to understand, and practice, and I quickly saw great improvements in mobility and a reduction in my symptoms. He helped diagnose and treat problems that a prior podiatrist, doctor, and two chiropractors missed. He's got a great sense of humor, very friendly and empathetic, and you feel he's both passionate about his work, and the long-term health of his clients. I highly recommend visiting Anthony at AC Physiotherapy!

My RMT referred me to Anthony for IMS/dry needling as I had been suffering from chronic headaches and neck/shoulder tightness for years from working an office job. My life has been changed! I was amazed how much of a difference I felt after only a couple of visits.I was nervous about trying IMS because like many, I'm not a fan of needles, but Anthony is super gentle and always checks to make sure you are doing ok throughout the treatment. Anthony is extremely knowledgable, reasonable (doesn't overload you with stretches/exercises to do), personable and friendly. He takes the time to listen to and address all concerns.I started out having to come every week but now go only every 2-3 weeks because there has been a drastic difference in my pain level. In addition to iMS, he has also provided physiotherapy excercises/stretches for other concerns and to support the progress of iMS. I definitely will recommend Anthony to anyone looking for a physiotherapist.

I highly recommend Anthony at AC Physiotherapy, he is a knowledgeable, pragmatic and personable physiotherapist. I visited Anthony for physiotherapy for a hand injury and a bike fit. I've made huge strides in my recovery with Anthony. Each visit I've had immediate pain relief and gained an understanding of why my injuries have occurred and how to prevent and treat them in the future.
