Reviews of Craven SPORT services (Physiotherapist)

Vanessa Schneider

Lee Stevens was very thorough, I feel confident about my treatment plan and am hopeful that we can work through this injury. I look forward to being strong as I complete my Spartan trifecta this year, and Lee and the folks at Craven will certainly be a huge part of that success.

Jason Benson

Great staff. Great facility

Pat McGeough

I've been to a number of Physiotherapist and most take a passive approach to helping their clients with a few techniques & suggestions to intervene in a problem. Here they are giving active and hands on solutions with in a gym environment where they show how you can actively work on the problem.

Derek Perrin

My therapist asked a lot of questions and was able to effectively treat my injury. She was knowledgeable in her field, but was also able to explain everything to me. I'll go back here the next time I get an injury.

Que Cocinas

Very professional.

Peter Schalm

I found the physiotherapists to be very knowledgeable, scientific, and effective. At my first appointment, I got a thorough diagnosis and then appropriate follow up. Any questions I had were answered, and sometimes even textbooks were used to explain concepts. I was happy with the care I received and I'll certainly be back! They treated a sprained ankle and an inflamed IT band.

Awesome service and a great help in my recovery

Britney Duncan

Amazing folks to work with on my journey to greater health

Julianne Rooke

I have been seeing Bree Rutten throughout my pregnancy and she has helped me with a lot of the "fun" issues that usually come along with it. I will definitely be seeing her after the birth to help get things back to "normal". She has been incredibly helpful, I think all women going through pregnancy should see someone who specializes in pelvic floor health.

Seem to really know their stuff.

Worked with Ainsley and she was awesome, very knowledgeable and together we figured out my shoulder mobility issues and got me back into the gym.

chad3122ctb249

Some of the most incredible human beings I've met to date work at Craven. Passionate and professional people who go above and beyond for their clients, and who actually, genuinely care about them.

Helly T

Huge thank you to Kate for helping me recover from sciatica/herniated disc injury.

Shauna Hingston

My daughter was having symptoms a few months after a concussion. We were referred here and we were pleased to have Katelyn as our professional. My daughter absolutely loved her and so did we she was great ! We would definitely recommend her and know who to call if we need!

Cameron Klassen

Very good place to go for any and all physical rehab services. Professional and knowledgeable staff, a complete range of services, and great equipment make Craven the place to go.

Robert Alexander

Great atmosphere and the instructor takes his or her time to access your situation I'd recommend craven sport services anytime

Casey Sullivan

Busy place with prompt services

Brent Clark

Back was bugging me from playing golf. Saw Megan Lautner. She did an excellent job of diagnosing the problem and giving me exercises to fix that. She also figured out a problem with my ankles. Don't run with duck feet.

Marli Bells

A great clinic with large exam rooms. Friendly front desk staff. I go to Bree and she is wonderful. Highly recommend

Tyler Wright

Back in July of 2017 I was struck in the back by a seadoo. End of October that year I started physio with Cohl and Chris at Craven Sport services. By Feb 5th they had me back to strength and able to return to work. It’s now March and the workout routine they have me on to maintain and strengthen is keeping the low back pain away. I can’t thank them enough and would recommend Cravens to anyone in need of pain relief. All the staff there is so friendly and helpful. Big thanks to the ladies up front, Michelle especially, for helping me with my scheduling. God forbid I ever need too, but if needed, Cravens would be my first choice for physio carein the future. Tyler Wright.

Fawn Swiderski

Rhonda is amazing

Darcy Hildebrandt

All of the staff were helpful, professional, and kind. I enjoyed working with each person there. I highly recommend this business to everyone who might need it. Thank you all for your help in my strength-building!

Aaron

Clean, professional, certified and experienced.

Angela S

Craven surpassed all our expectations! My husband was referred to Craven by his (future) surgeon, which says a lot. His physiotherapist was very knowledgeable on his condition and worked with him to make a plan tailored to his needs. There has been an astounding improvement in both his pain and mobility. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Trevor Benning

Very Informative

Ru5ky Uk3ger

Super good service, friendly staff; very knowledgeable. The facility is clean and well set up.

Wade Klassen

I really can’t say enough to express how Kim Fraser and the rest of the team at Craven have...saved me! As a middle aged dude who decided to take up triathlons, I was so inefficient as a runner that I kept getting injured. Kim’s deep understanding of runners and how the whole body must work together, not just targeting the areas that hurt, pulled me from the brink of quitting the sport to thriving at it! She’s my go-to at the first sign that something is off, and I highly, highly recommend her and everyone else at Craven!!

Kendra Rink

Excellent and thorough service. I was with Curtis Kulchar, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

carmen wheeldon

10 yrs in pain found my issue only place were they have the skills to work with me no one else as it love it that they took me on

Devon Aulie

Before going to Craven I had several problems with knee, hip, and back pain, but Ainsley was able to fix each one quickly and efficiently. I'm glad I went and would definitely recommend.

Shawn Snyder

The Craven team as was friendly and professional right from the time I walked in. I saw Betsy and Dave for a shoulder injury, they were very supportive and great at giving explanations for every movement or exercise that was done.

Laura

I struggled with back problems for years! Cohl at Craven was able to explain the problem better than anyone else and got me to the point where I didn't have back pain every day!

Jenna Rae

Great staff. Very attentive and helpful.

Western Canada

I have done 4 rounds of physiotherapy in my 4 some decades of life. This clinic is by far & away the best of the clinics. Evidence-based, competent, and respectful - and that's just to start. A sports psychology knowledge and positive spirit pervade this clinic. Perhaps one clinic in Ottawa was more technologically advanced, but this SK clinic is all about doing the doing the good work. Front desk could be more welcoming, but entry into any bldg during the government imposed covid-19 restrictions is unwelcoming. Loss of on-site medical imaging recently. Specialized service in concussion care provided here however. With the step-down supervised gym a block over, there is an excellent continuum of care provided here.

Dylan Fafard

Very professional and welcoming place. My quality of life improved drastically after coming here for non-sports related FAI. I would highly recommend this place.

Erika Fyfe

I had a great experience at Craven! I came to the clinic with knee pain that bothered me most days and prevented me from running long distances. Curtis identified the issue right away and helped me strengthen the right muscles to reduce the wear on my knee. I was pain free after a few weeks and am now learning how to run properly. I am so grateful for this clinic and would highly recommend it!

April

The staff is awesome!

heatherontherun

A wonderful training centre...a program is developed especially for YOU, with the help of a Physiotherapist or a Personal Coach. You buy passes and book on a schedule that suits you. A Personal Training Coach watches over the small group of people that are working out on their individual programs and comes by often to correct your movements as needed. VERY HELPUL!! VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE!!!!! I feel very welcome and comfortable at this training centre. The best way to work out and do the movements properly to prevent injury!!! Thank you Craven Sports!!!!!!!

David Sharp

First class place and people. Friendly and passionate about what they do. David K was one 9f the best strength coaches I have ever worked with and Katherine L was an amazing physiotherapist i am sad that my time has come to an end. I highly recommend Craven above all others.

Fraser Sprigings

The experience and knowledge of the Craven SPORT team is amazing. They've helped me get back on track and reaching my goals for years to come!

Eleisha Chubak

I had taken my son here after a ankle injury in basketball. The ladies at the front desk were friendly, happy and very helpful. This place is also very clean with a lot of great equipment to help people out. We had Paula working with us and she is incredible. She really cares and is very good at what she does. With her help and exercises she had my son moving around and back on the court. I would highly recommend going to Craven Sports services. Top quality care.

Devin Johnson

I was fortunate enough to see Michelle here a few times and I highly recommend her and the rest of the Craven team!

Zofia Stadnyk

Craven SPORT Services has a great atmosphere, the Staff is friendly and professional. Chris Sturge, Coach is intelligent and knowledgeable; he is very enthusiastic, and has a positive attitude towards people. I would recommend Craven Sport Services to everyone.

Tonny Sticks

They are very good. Highly recommend them.

magnumdi1

Did physio here. Was a great place.

Michayla van de Velde

clean, professional, and safe! will come back if i need physio or sport services in thr future.

Gabi Wolosik

Just... Amazing. The are the anchor of my physical health. I first came to address knee pain - then to rehabilitate my arm after a badly broken bone - then to prepare for a 160 km hike. I get my massages here, I use their sports nutritionist, and I train in their gym. They have made the world my oyster, and have been my guides and guardians. Part of the magic of having a trainer, physical therapist and nutritionist under one roof is that they can talk to each other, so all efforts work in unison. They have a lot of other services I haven't used as well - acupuncture, sleep therapist, physician, concussion care. One can truly get complete care here. I am a dedicated user of their gym. They provide you with a program based on current fitness and goals, then the gym is open during specific hours on weekdays for you to do your workout. A professional walks the room helping everyone with their technique and spotting when necessary. Some of the people I train beside are real athletes, some are recovering from major injuries, some are learning to live a full life with disabilities, some are elderly and looking to age in comfort. Some, like myself, are just looking to be fit and healthy. After developing knee pain with no clear cause, my doctor suggested a physical therapist. They concluded that my walking posture during long hikes was the culprit and helped me improve my motion, providing exercises and stretches to do on my own as part of prevention. It was so effective I worked through all my nagging aches and discomforts, learning a lot about my body and gathering a collection of excesses and stretches to fix most common problems on my own, making self care much easier. Free of pain, I wondered if they could help me become a beginner runner. They got me on a treadmill and taught me proper posture to protect joints or muscles, taught me about buying the right shoes, and gave me a running programming. I appreciate their scientific approach which cut through the bad advice of magazines and blogs. Eventually, they gave me a heart rate training system which taught me how to use the information my fitness tracker provided in a meaningful way. I worked with their nutritionist to support my running and weight goals. Then I went to them to become a stronger hiker, to build my upper body, and for kayaking. It's made a huge difference in my ability to be active and not feel shy and weak. It opened a world of travel: mountain hiking in the Rockies, kayaking in Thailand, trekking in Scotland. They've also been great about helping me with sports injuries, giving me a program to keep active while letting the injury make a full recovery, then breaking me back into my old routine in a sensible fashion. I especially learned a lot about getting back to running after a long and horrible flu. Then came the day when I broke a bone after a bad fall. My surgeon was pleased I had chosen Craven to rehabilitate my arm and torn ligaments in my wrist. They were in communication with the doctor and got a copy of my x-rays. Physical therapy was painful, but I got full range of motion in my arm and fingers back. Then they helped me get all the strength back in my arm, and eventually I was back to doing push ups and lifting weights. If it weren't for my surgery scar, I would never know I had broken it. In short - this place is amazing. I went from being a slightly pudgy couch potato to being active and exploring the world. Whether you have fitness goals, discomfort or specialized needs, Craven is the place to go.

Brent Stewart

Curtis did an excellent job helping me manage a shoulder issue. Over the course of a few months and a half dozen appointments my shoulder feels great. I have recommended Craven Sport Services to multiple people since I started going there. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff.

Brian Webb

my experience at Craven was excellent in every way! The greeting at the front desk was friendly and check in was efficient. I did not have to wait past my appointment time - pretty rare anywhere else. I would recommend Paula Sather to anyone as a physiotherapist. Excellent diagnosis and treatment and she takes the time to explain everything and answer questions.

Jordan Hittel

Unfortunately my torn ACL was misdiagnosed in Spring and thus, it has been almost a year since I have been able to play sports. I have been trying to reach out to the physiotherapist who has been treating me on repeated occasion with no response. They seem to only want to talk if there's a formal appointment made. I would still recommend them but would need to explain my cautionary tale. Edit: Craven did remedy the issue and has been great to deal with in my recovery, so far.

Rudy Zaidan

I took the Injury Prevention/Learn to Run seminars in the summer instructed by Karen Craven and Braden Ripley. The instructors were knowledgable and very helpful. They helped me to change my running style and increase my speed and efficiency. Charlene Z.

Jared Epp

I had a fantastic experience here with Paula. I was dealing with really bad knee pain for months that kept me up at night. The most sleep I could catch was 3 hours, I had to walk down stairs sideways, and I could barely climb into my car. Went to multiple doctors and all I heard were things like "I don't know what's wrong", "That's just the way your knee is now", and "Your best option is managing it with pain meds for the foreseeable future". I went to another physio who helped a bit, I could finally go down stairs again but still wasn't getting any sleep, and was spending an hour or more doing exercises every day. Finally I saw a specialist who recommended Craven Sport Services. I told him "I've already been to physio" and his response was "not all physio places are the same". He was right. Fast forward to 4 appointments with Paula and my knee is cured, I can finally sleep again. She was great to work with and kept my exercises to about 15 minutes a day which I really appreciated. They have a nice-looking, clean office with friendly reception staff and some cool high-tech equipment as well. I can't recommend them enough - I only wish someone had done the same for me earlier and saved me months of sleepless nights!

Clarice Pawluk

Wonderful therapist ready to help you solve you pain issues. They offer dry needling which is great.

Twylla Sutton

I have been working with Karen for over 10 years. When I first went to her it was mostly as a personal trainer - to provide a program I could use for an overall workout. Then as I began having difficulty with my hip she helped me with exercises to strengthen my hip. I have always found her to be very knowledgeable about any issues affecting me and how to resolve those issues. Because of the exercises she gave me prior to my hip replacement, I feel that I recovered more quickly from the operation, and the post-operation exercises have helped me to recover,

Mary Kinloch

It's fair to say that this place - both the gym and physio - has changed my life. I am a fit person that has two toddlers but I had nagging hip pain. In May, I made the best decision by seeing Jill (strength and conditioning trainer) at the gym. Even through video assessment she could tell that I was using the wrong muscles at the wrong time, and this was contributing to my pain. I wasn't actually using my left hip so Jill has been an immense educator with correcting that issue. But that wasn't the entire problem, and Jill recognized there must be a reason why I am not using my hip - enter Kim, the physiotherapist. Kim identified that I had an old pelvic floor injury from childbirth and I was reinforcing the injury and the lack of lower ab muscle development by overusing stabilizers. Between Jill and Kim my pain is completely gone, I have rebuilt the way I work-out, have learned an absolute tonne about my body and feel great! It is so amazing to have a team that cares about you feeling better. Highly recommend.

Dylan Chuckrowski

I was bouncing between physio clinics for a year and half and I could never seem to get the right help for my lingering shoulder problems. Once I went to Craven to see Curtis it was great, he was very helpful and we worked out the kinks with my shoulder and now I am pain free. I highly recommend anyone with problems to go see him ASAP he really knows his stuff!

Kathy Poncelet

Very knowledgeable & caring Staff...thanks for helping my Son with his knee injury!!!

Brenda Enright

Friendly knowledgeable staff, large gym and good options for treatment. Ongoing programs for training or body issues eg.pelvis floor

Toby Carroll

When I shattered my elbow, I was sent here. They did an amazing job. I went from being told by the Doctor that it was 50/50 chance of getting full use. Craven had a different opinion. I am at 97% of full function.

Saskatoon Fencing

Our fencers are stronger, faster athletes because of the work Craven SPORT Services has done with them. We only trust Craven SPORTS Services with our fencers!

Damon Vu

Had a great experience here

Jeremy B

The best

D Welter

Craven Sports is the best. The osteoarthritis program is amazing. Chris is a great instructor teaching us through exercise to improve our movement and strength. He is very mindful of our specific limitations and easily adapts an exercise to an individual's need. The osteoarthritis program and Chris have made a positive impact in my flexibility and strength.

k mac

Enjoyed learning and feeling better at Craven. Have worked with Bree and Chris, who have been helping me with my desk-job-itis. Pelvic Floor physio is awesome and for everyone. The Osteoarthritis program is great -- very challenging in a good way. Feeling better and stronger, thanks to Bree and Chris. Appreciate the knowledge and expertise of the staff, as well as a safe environment to explore feeling better. Thank you, Craven.

Michael Horvath

I have been a client at Craven for a few years now. Lee is my physio and he is excellent. I always appreciate his treatment plan. Front staff are all very nice. I as well as my family continue to use Craven Sports Services. I also appreciate their commitment to community and wanting to help.

Shawna Langer

Wonderful experience at Craven. Ainsley was fantastic and very knowledgeable

Kirsti Gingras

My 9 year old son got a concussion playing hockey which was a scary experience. I really had no idea what to do. We were recommended by a friend to take him to a concussion management clinic and they recommended Craven Sports. I’m so happy we decided to make an appointment. Betsy has been amazing and very knowledgeable. She encourage me to email her with any questions we had and she answered the emails promptly. I couldn’t be happier with the guidance and care my son has received. They also have an app they use which helps guide you through the process at home. I would definitely highly recommend coming to this clinic for concussion management.

Garth Patterson

World class training by world class professionals for local people

Breanna Hedley

Helped me get back to my life before my injury by making me stronger and helping me get over my fear of reinjury!

J Bor

I was injured at work and broke one of my vertebrae. When i called the CRAVEN SPORT i asked STEPHANY ( She is awesome! ) to give me the best therapist they have and she assigned Katelyn to help me to recover from that bad accident. I would say that KATELYN PROCYSHYN is the best one and i mean it!. She is very professional and she knows what is the best for me and she was able to answer all my questions with regards to my injury because i was so worried. She explained to me the details of my injury while giving me the pointers on how to get better everyday. From light to moderate set of exercises with her supervision now i am able to get back on my feet and looking forward to get back to work and hopefully soon. Craven is the best place to go if you are injured or in pain or need a professional help. The place itself is very clean and organize and they have everything that you need. TWO THUMBS UP CRAVEN AND KATELYN YOU ARE THE BEST! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Jenessa Howlett

These 5 stars are well deserved! I came to Craven for my secondary treatment after being rear ended in November. My experience has genuinely made the accident a blessing in disguise. The trainers and physiotherapists are very hands on and with you throughout your entire session. If you’ve ever attended physio before, you know that this is uncommon. Everyone is always so friendly and supportive, making an unfortunate situation actually really enjoyable. I have learned so much and have been able to create a solid foundation for physical health. I truly am leaving this program better than I was before the accident even happened. Now that I’m done my secondary program, I look forward to coming back to Craven with more goals to crush!

Alice Fontaine

I have heard only excellent results from Craven. I had my 1st. app. and it was very professional. Looking forward to moving forward with my injury. Clean, friendly and bright.

Mia M

I saw Rhonda. She was excellent! Very friendly and professional. She took the time to explain in full detail to me about what my problem was and how to fix it. She made me feel very comfortable. Friendly staff as well.

Merilynn Downey

Great staff

Iris Grychowski

Curtis was fantastic! He was knowledgable and very helpful. I would recommend Craven to my family and friends. Bye bye, knee pain!

Cheryl Beardsworth

Everyone at Craven is extremely friendly and helpful. They genuinely care about helping you heal and achieve your recovery goals. You are not just a number to them. I have and will continue to recommended Craven to my friends and family.

Stacy K

I highly recommend this place because of Kim Fraser. Prior to Kim, I saw 4 other physiotherapists, all of which were not able to help. Kim was able to help me significantly in the very first treatment! She is so knowledgeable, personable, and you always leave with so much optimism. I saw her today, and going in, I was experiencing a lot of pain all throughout my back. For the rest of the day, I didn't have one episode of pain. She is magical!

Adam Shortt

Megan and David were both extremely helpful in my recover from my back injury. Megan was amazing in educating me on how to maintain and improve my form , strength and motion ranges..This is the 2nd time having David as my strength and conditioning coach , the first was For a rotator cuff injury and I couldn't recommend a better individual to help with my recovery of youra He always put the extra time and effort in to focus on aspects of training that pertained to my goals for recovery. And always maintained a professional yes personable relationship. If you happen to have the pleasure of getting him as strength aand conditioning coach make sure to ask how his fish doing.

Leanne Bowes

Amazing physiotherapists! Bruce and his staff have been very dedicated to helping me resolve my significant back pain. They truly care in helping their clients meet their goals - whether that is running a marathon or just getting out of bed in the morning. Thank you!

Patrice Harelkin

I was somewhat disappointed about a few things. First of all you should not advertise that your insurance provider covers the expense of the class because mine will not cover group sessions. Secondly, I would prefer a daytime class even if it’s a weekend. And last, but not least, it would be nice if you provided a paper hand-out on the exercises so I could do them at home. I am only going once a week, because the other evening does not work for me. The staff and front desk personnel are very friendly and willing to assist you. Also I’m impressed with the cleanliness of the place & equipment.

Pat Danyluk

I was referred to the osteoarthritis rehab program (called GLAD based on a Danish program) by my physician. It has been a life changer. I was on crutches at the end of the summer, got a cortisone injection into my knee to deal with the pain and started this program in October. I thought i was on the road to feeling older than I am! And that i was going to have to give up jogging and cross country skiing. This program has given me hope that I can be pain free and keep active for years to come. Jared our physiotherapist is excellent. The program is progressive and Jared does just the right amount of pushing so that I can actually see myself improving each week but he makes sure it's done safely and with no further injury. The group is kept smalI so that everyone get the attention they need. Would definately recommend this program for anyone with joint issues that limits your daily activities or keeping you from doing what you love. Thanks for giving me hope, Pat Danyluk

m mc

Went for initial assessment, met therapist 5 min after start time. Went through initial assessment and movement patterns, given a brief diagnosis. Left without any treatment or corrective exercises. Appointment was $ 115 for 45 minutes of time with therapist. Really was intent on getting me to have multiple appointments a week. I have been to physio quite a bit and this seems like a cash grab so far. I have never left the office without at least some starting exercises or stretches after an initial assessment.

Teagan Cebryk

I would highly recommend this place. After an injury at work which left me unable to walk due to my foot being crushed, they brought me back to full mobility. They being Megan, David, and Ty. These guys are the real deal.

amber

Our experience at Craven has been nothing short of amazing . My daughter’s physiotherapist Betsy has done amazing things with my daughter. She has taken her from being a top athlete to being able to step up to elite level . Betsy is one of the nicest most knowledgeable people we’ve ever met, she’s extremely caring and committed to her patients . My daughter also sees Lakyn for massage and the collaboration between Betsy and Lakyn has been wonderful . Betsy has also made sure to work with our daughters other coaches and trainers to ensure that it’s a team approach with her treatment. In conclusion- Craven sports and their team are amazing we give it a 10/10 recommendation.

Eugene Betke

I had my son in to work with Curtis to treat a fractured bone in his foot. We were very happy with the attention he received, and with how thorough Curtis was in his treatment. Although my son wanted to get back to playing sports as soon as possible, the focus was on long term health and proper healing.

Joshua Northey

Michelle Keene and Stevie Irinici from Craven Sports are the best physio therapists I could ask for! Thanks Craven Sports

Riley Thomas

Ive had multiple physio appointments with Paul and i was very impressed with his attention to detail and ability to help me get my back feeling better. Highly recommend their services for any training or physio needs!

Marie Duke

My first thought when I walked in was 'I don't belong here', since it seemed to be sports related. My needs were initially age-related, so this didn't seem like the place to be. That was quickly dispelled the second I met Katelyn. She was extremely knowledgeable, personable and attentive. She quickly figured out what I needed, what I could do, and where I should get to. Subsequent sessions were just as professional. She is an expert in her field! When speaking later to a Kinesiology grad and Dietician, they both said 'That's the best place in the city'. I highly recommend anyone, regardless of injury or need, to seek out Craven SPORT services.

BC Management

Torned my ACL and Bree helped me get back on my feet in no time. Much appreciated

Michael Ludtke

Had a great massage

Kirk Muyres

We have been working with everyone at Craven very seriously for 2 years now and I have been working with Bruce for over 5 years. The atmosphere and commitment at Craven Sport Services is second to none and the people are always helpful, friendly, happy and dedicated to make sure you get the support you need. Whether it is an injury, conditioning, strength, maintenance or prep these people will act in your best interest to make sure you get the help you need!!! 5 Stars!!!

Cas G

When I first came to see Betsy I was in rough shape. I could only walk or stand for a few minutes before being in pain. Over the last 6 months she worked with me, putting in so much time and effort to get me to the point where I can function without pain. We had so many setbacks and she went above and beyond to work through them with me. I highly recommend Betsy she is very knowledgeable and personable. Everyone at Craven Sports have been great. The receptionist are so friendly. Always a warm welcome when arriving. I’ve seen Dave a few times and he is great. I would highly recommend him too.

Mitu Bhoumik

Nice service

Brenda C

I have used the following services at Cravens: physio, Fit for Life & massage for many years. Most recently I required their services from the initial treatment through secondary assessment to recover from injuries sustained in a car accident. The attention received from Ainsley & Cohl was second to none. They worked together to provide stretches & exercise programs. Their ability to push me to levels I didn't think I could obtain was very much appreciated. They truly take a personal interest in the recovery of their clients. I highly recommend going to Craven Sport Services, all their staff is friendly, caring & very knowledgable & their facility is top notch.

Krista Sanderson

Extremely happy to receive treatment at Craven Sport Services. Rhonda is patient and extremely knowledgeable.

LMC

Great sports and regular physio, pelvic floor physiotherapy

Corey Fisher

Was training for a Marathon and was experiencing major pain with my left knee, to the point where I could not run for more than an hour. Curtis got me fixed up, and made me stronger and faster. He is very knowledgeable, dedicated, organized, and professional. Without him, I would not have reached my goal at finishing a Marathon under four hours. He was even waiting at the finish line to congratulate me on race day.

Megan Regehr

Craven Sport Services has provided excellent rehabilitation services for our family.

Wendy Stables

Craven Sport Services offer a wide range of treatments with access to Professionals to support your needs. I have been a patient for a short time and I am confident my choice to visit Craven Sport Services was the right one. My physiotherapist Jared has addressed my issues and continues to develop the correct course of treatment and home exercises to a noticeable improvement. If you arrive early for your appointment you will find the waiting room a source of education, with good reading material to the TV displaying the many programs Craven Sport Services has to offer. The Staff are very friendly and the office has an inviting atmosphere which makes your visit stress free. Thank you Craven Sport Services W. Stables

Cindy Smith

I was referred here after suffering a concussion. The staff were very friendly and the physiotherapist I seen was very knowledgeable and helpful. I became concussed on a Friday evening and was able to get in the following Monday afternoon which was great, I then had a follow up appointment the following week. The only thing holding back for giving 5 stars is that at the time of my appointment they did not have direct billing available. Other than that everything was great and I would highly recommend their services to friends and family!

Britney McKinnon

Melissa is awesome! She identified the cause of several abdominal pain that my doctor was unable to, despite various tests. Within 2 appointments was experiencing significantly less pain and discomfort! I am looking forward to what the end result of treatment will be, given results so far I am certain I will be impressed. Also I have to mention how welcoming and professional the environment is at CSS. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Awesome experience and looking forward to achieving my health and fitness goals with CSS.

Lexus Amson

I'm 100% happy with my choice to receive physiotherapy from here. Curtis was so helpful and I learned so much useful information. I don't have a single complaint!

Sharlene Lloyd

Took great care of my son at SMF

Angela Cromarty

Lee knows his stuff, very professional.

Steven Hitchings

I have been working with Bruce and his staff at Craven Sports Services for the past four years. I have always found them to be accommodating and willing to collaborate with the needs of my program. My athletes love going there, love the atmosphere and can see the benefits of the training. For a swim program going 16 hours in the water every week we have seen almost 0 shoulder injuries and none that have resulted in a reduction in training. The staff at CSS know that an athlete wants/needs to be training and do everything they can to keep the athlete training while rehabilitating.

Rita Mirwald

I am a long term client and friend of both Karen and Bruce Craven. I am very pleased to have this public opportunity to thank them for the essential role they have played in helping me meet personal goals in a variety of areas - everything from physical training to post surgery rehabilitation. They, and members of their fine staff, have provided professional advice ranging from moral support through to hands-on physical assistance and all done with an emphasis on gentle persuasion, sound science and perhaps best of all, with a great sense of humour. And I think we all know that a good laugh is some of the best medicine when facing a long road ahead. A decision to join the Cravens and their colleagues will be one of the best decisions that you will make.

Pat albers

I received exceptional rehabilitation services from my wonderful 3-person team of professionals at Craven Sport Services - physiotherapists Lindsay Facca and Kim Fraser and kinesiologist, Braden Ripley. They worked collaboratively to help me maximize my recovery from a serious accident. I had previously gotten rehabilitation services from another agency prior to moving over to Craven Sports and I am so glad I made the switch. I didn't feel like a cog in a wheel but instead felt genuinely cared for. They were inventive in coming up with ingenious ways to force me to rely on my left leg and hip (the injured side). They regularly videotaped me so I could see for myself what I was doing wrong and then used various techniques to get me to properly engage muscles and nerves that didn't want to cooperate initially. It was a long process but I improved dramatically. Each of them had their individual strengths and unique approaches which, combined, made for an ever-changing and challenging program. They were outstanding in their professionalism, their attitude, their questioning minds, and their genuine care for my betterment. I felt I was a part of the team; they included me in decisions and my concerns were taken into account. Treatments were not just merely applied to me; rather, I was as involved in my treatment as they were. They respected me as someone who knows her body, has always been athletic, and has gone to the gym for 30 years. I believe that I would not be where I am today had I stayed with my previous service provider. I heartily recommend Craven Sport Services to anyone recovering from any kind of injury.

I've been going here for 9+ years and their physiotherapy is amazing. Everyone is always nice and they help you out with what you're looking to get done

Lovely staff, Covid protocols are great, user friendly intake system. Good location, easy free parking. My therapist seems knowledgeable. He listened intently. I left feeling confident. I am excited to get to the point where I can start supervised training. I am a person who requires accountability and an overseer who can assure me I'm doing my workout properly. I'm happy to be on this path with Craven.

I was referred by a friend to Ainsley at Craven for physiotherapy. The staff is friendly and professional. This has been my best experience having physiotherapy yet. I went in for neck and shoulder issues (so much better) and as a surprising side effect my chronic headaches have all but disappeared as well! I am very happy with Craven and would highly recommend.

Karen Ewen

Great customer service and Bree Rutton is an amazing physiotherapist!

Michael Schneider

My experience with Craven was excellent. Front office was very helpful and friendly. My physiotherapist - Jared - was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He effortlessly answered all my questions with easy to understand terminology. I am also very pleased with his plan to help improve my physical health and well-being. I look forward to my upcoming appointments with Jared at Craven.

I began seeing Curtis at Craven last August after sustaining an injury to my left knee that left me with complete tears of my PCL and MCL, a high grade tear to my ACL, and a long list of other significant but less severe tears and contusions. Surgical repair being the norm, my specialist instead recommended we take a relatively novel, non-surgical route to rehabilitate the injury. The rehabilitation process, which took approximately seven months of one-on-one physiotherapy multiple times per week, eventually turned out to be successful. Nearly one year post-injury, I can do almost everything I could do pre-injury with relative comfort and confidence. Curtis, humble as he is, would give all the credit to me, suggesting he played only a supporting role. But this would not be a fair account of the process. While I can't attribute all the credit to Curtis, I can say with extreme confidence that were it not for his careful attention and sustained effort, I would not have the lifestyle that I now enjoy, at one point effectively lost, almost entirely restored. Curtis provided the tools that enabled us to succeed in this process. The training plan he created was both optimistic and realistic. He tempered my expectations from the process with a pragmatic attitude, careful to remind me that our progress would plateau at times. When it did, and my motivation would falter, he would empathize before reminding me of our broader, long-term goals. Overall, Curtis was careful to create a plan tailored to my injury. He managed this plan in a way that was responsive to me as an individual. In the end, he played a critical role in restoring my knee and, most importantly, my enjoyment in life. I will never be able to thank him enough.

Jonathan Stoodley

Amazing experience with Curtis, he was so helpful and a super nice guy. He communicated in a way that I could understand him and his fancy doctor words. He made sure that I knew how to preform my exercises without hurting myself more and gave me a ton of good tips! I will definitely be going back if I have anymore problems in the future! I highly recommend this place if you have any kind of sport injury!

Gary Singh

Very good physio

Jeremy Bohmann

At first thought hey this place is ok and going to help me with secondary treatment. Unfortunately as time went on felt like no one actually listened or cared about the way I was recovering. The psychologist I seen did not do anything positive for me and actually made me feel worse. Not only did she not help but actually disagreed with my family Dr diagnosis on my conditions and have found out my family Dr was completely correct and helped me a lot more then she did. If not for him I may not be here today. Cole seemed good at first but as time moved on found him to not listen to what was going on. He at times was very condensending and didn't like when brushed off pain rolling eyes at me. The treatment given actually made my conditions worse. Katelyn was a lot better in terms of treatment and seemed even better on days Cole wasn't there. Only downfall was I found her and Cole whispering things about me behind my back. I'm know in different program and been getting the proper treatment and much more care to what is going on. Glad to go to go to another place and wished would of been referred to them much sooner then being treated like a pay check especially with the psychologist.

I have been working with Bruce and staff for over 3 years and have achieved things I never thought possible after sustaining an injury. Thanks to Bruce I have come back far stronger and more functional than I have ever been. Thank you for all your hard work, Bruce!!!

I have only been going to Craven for a few months, but already they are clearly superior to the last place I went for physio. Everyone is friendly and professional. I have the utmost faith in the abilities of Ainsley for physio and Karlyn for massage.

I have seen many physiotherapists in the city, all for the same problem, over the last 5 years. And I never really felt like any of them cared about me as a person or validated what I was feeling/experiencing. But that all changed when I started working with Craven SPORT! I feel like a person and not a number to everyone here - starting from the minute I walk through the door where I'm greeted by name, to the time I leave, everyone is incredibly helpful and it's obvious they all love their jobs! I haven't been working with Craven for long, but I can tell that this is the place for me! I'd recommend them to anyone needing physio or training plans!

Amy James

I've spent several months here rehabbing after a bad MVA and can tell you my experience here has been nothing less than fantastic. The entire staff has been wonderful and attentive. They listen and answer questions, and are very professional in all respects. My thanks to everyone at Craven Sport Services.

Sarah Thiessen

I had my very first visit at Craven Sports yesterday. It was exceptional! Highly recommend booking with Melissa. So glad I finally found a physiotherapist here in the city that understands what I am needing.

Very friendly, competent staff.

Susan Murphy

I have been attending the osteoarthritis program at Craven since last fall and cannot give it high enough praise. The program has improved my flexibility and strength and has made me more mindful of how I move. Chris is a fabulous and knowledgeable instructor who adapts the exercises to meet individual needs/limitations, sincerely cares about our well being, and is very encouraging of our progress.

Brendan Garritty

I go to Craven physio all the time for my sports injuries. They are excellent in their assessments and treatments of my injuries. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking the best care in Saskatoon.

Ainsley is an amazing PT. I had been to 4 other PT's over the past 2 years with no change in my pain or injury. Being 30 years old with pretty severe hip arthritis was a death sentence for me. I was very active prior. I couldn't even walk without being in pretty serious pain. She is so caring and listened to me ball my eyes out at the beginning lol. She now has me back in the gym and walking relatively pain free. Honestly she is a life saver and I can't say enough good things about her. I also saw bree and kim at some points in my care and they were all fantastic. I would recommend anyone to go see her or any of the other staff at craven.

Callie Lytle

I have been going to Craven for a couple months and the service is fantastic. Katelyn is my physio and I love working with her! I always leave feeling better and the progams/stretches Katelyn creates for me have greatly improved my back. I would definitely recommend Craven and Katelyn

Absolutely a life-changing experience, truly! I came to Craven and began working with Jill Gallays, personal trainer and amazing individual, almost two years ago already. I came to accomplish two goals: getting back to a healthy weight and protecting myself from injury before I ventured crazily into hockey goaltending at the seasoned age of 43. I knew of Craven’s training excellence from my son’s past opportunity to train at Craven with his curling team through the Saskatchewan Winter Games High Performance Curling Program. It was a no-brainer for me to come directly to Craven to pursue my goals. What struck me most when I started training with Jill was the meticulous attention to details and the focus on establishing proper technique. This assurance that I had the proper groundwork in place to safely train (and Jill’s faith in me) was exactly what helped me push beyond my comfy spot to attain those personal milestones. Here now, almost two years later, I feel absolutely invigorated and wondering what all I can accomplish. My continuing development in strength and fitness has also kept me safely on the ice and allowed me to have so much fun sliding around in goal I could never have imagined. Working with Jill Gallays and the Craven staff has been truly inspiring and motivating. Craven’s training facility is always welcoming and bright – and so very clean, nice! It stood apart for me how Jill and all of Craven’s staff members greet you so warmly and make you always feel at home. Thank you Craven for getting me on track to healthy living!

Craven Sport has the most genuine staff I know. They make sure you are well taken care of and Curtis is the best physiotherapist I have ever gone to. 5/5 for sure, and I will be recommending everyone I know to Craven.

Very professional; Curtis has been very helpful and accommodating in helping me with my injury.

Geoff Booth

My initial visit was a free seminar on back pain. The seminar not only included excellent information on types and causes of back pain but included a presentation on what an initial assessment would look like. This assessment alone looked valuable to me beyond the back pain. I have now had two appointments and with each visit I have been provided with great explanations of why things aren't moving as well as they should along with a recommended stretching / strengthening plan. Each plan comes with detailed instructions and a tracking chart ! Excellent staff (starting with reception and continuing throughout); great attention to detail (training plans, appointment reminders).
