“Jay Kiss provided treatment for me when I was having problems with my lower back. As a very active person and unable to move without pain, I became very depressed. Jay gave me a thorough assessment, treated the injury and then taught me how to move pain-free. He fine tuned my exercise regime so I […]
“I am happy to report that as of this last visit the surgeon conceded that I have indeed completely avoided surgery. He no longer thinks surgery is the answer for me and told me to “keep doing what you are doing.” Despite this being a workers compensation situation he said to me that he did […]
“You will find professionalism at the core of every feature within Optimal Performance & Reconditioning. From the outset of my initial consultation, in each session, and throughout the evolution of my therapy, Marc provided a tailored program specific to my needs.

“I had been having frequent bouts of low back pain for years, and it got to the point early last spring that my regular chiropractor told me there was nothing more he could do for me. I went to my doctor and got x-rays. He said it was arthritis and degenerative disc disease—normal for my […]
“I had seen just about everyone within a 50 km radius for my back injury with no results over the course of 8 months. As a firefighter and someone who lives an active lifestyle, my backpain was debilitating physically and mentally. I was in a pretty bad place before I finally stumbled across Backfitpro online […]
Being an athlete in 3 professional combat sports I have a long injury history but a back injury in 2016 was the worst. I saw many different physiotherapists and chiropractors.

“Just as the pandemic hit, a lingering back injury hit an all-time high and there was really no escaping it. I purchased “Gift of Injury” and read the entire thing cover to cover in three days. I soon connected with Brian for a consult/assessment and he immediately offered 1:1 support to dive into my specific […]
“I had read The Back Mechanic and worked through some exercises on my own, but I found that I needed a bit of extra help. I was very fortunate to find Dr. Camisa nearby. I had been to other physical therapists in the past without success. With something as complicated as back injury I felt […]
“Hi Stu, I just wanted to send you a quick update. Mike has been fantastic. I am +90% better, and have adopted a much more thoughtful approach to exercise (big 3, walking etc). It’s still a journey, but well on the path. Thank you for the steer. I’m delighted with your recommendation.” ————————————– “Dear Dr. […]
“I went to Scott with major back pain for an assessment. During the back assessment he made me feel very comfortable while talking through topics I did not know much about so that I would understand everything more clearly. We started the back assessment with a conversation about my back and the pain I feel. […]
Dr. McGill is single-handedly the reason I am operational today. Stu walked me step by step from a severely herniated T12/L1 and L5/S1 where I could barely walk to literally having zero issues and being able to do more than I could even before the injury. I am now back to being fully operational and […]
