Reviews of Pulse Physio & Performance (Physiotherapist)

Mary Smelt

Emma and the team at Pulse are fantastic. My journey has been long and is on-going. Emma ( & Leah) have helped by teaching me the tools to regain my strength while dealing with chronic pain. The team is friendly and patient, I highly recommend Pulse.

Studio PTBO

Connor and his team are amazing! They are great community builders and many people on our team has been going to them for years now. They really take the time to make sure you are at ease and listen to what the problem is and than provide a tailored solution. Our team would highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy.

Pulse Physio & Performance offers a very friendly, welcoming, clean, organized and efficient service. The front office staff always greeted me with a smile and a kind word and the premises was well spaced out and spotless. My physiotherapist, Jay, was very approachable, engaging and extremely professional and knowledgeable. Not a second was wasted during my sessions with Jay. When I began with Jay, my arm had an extremely limited range of motion and lack of strength. Within just a few weeks, I regained almost full mobility and strength in my arm. In addition to the work that was done during each session, Jay also provided me with several practical and effective stretches and strength building exercises to perform at home. I'm very grateful for this experience and I strongly recommend Pulse Physio & Performance to everyone in need of high quality physiotherapy.

Matt Parkhurst

After months of trying to work through some recurring pain, a friend recommended I see Connor at Pulse Physiotherapy. Connor immediately helped me change my mindset and get to the root of my problem. Pulse Physiotherapy was a solid recommendation. I’m very thankful for my time spent there.

Elise Moore

I first visited Pulse Physio two months ago for a (seemingly) never-ending tendon strain. I worked with Emma for two months and she was so kind, reassuring, and friendly. Most importantly, I'm now back to running pain-free. I highly recommend Pulse Physio and though I hope I don't have any more injuries, I'd go back in a heartbeat if I needed further assistance. Thank you so much, Emma!

Sommer Sanderson

Following a recommendation from a co-worker, over the past few years I have appreciated all the supportive staff at Pulse. From physio, massage and the lovely reception team, I have experienced staff being very knowledgeable, professional, friendly, caring and supportive! I like the physiotherapy approach which is geared towards healing by stretching/strengthening along with helpful exercises to do at home to move towards recovery in between sessions (and beyond).

Van

Great atmosphere and I really felt staff knew what they were doing.

Kylie Scobie

Very professional and clean place of business. Jay is fantastic and is always offering up knowledge to fix the issues at hand. The front desk girls are always polite and smiling. Definentley will be recommending to friends and family

Matthew Clark

Can’t say enough about Connor and the Pulse team! I first saw Connor for treatment a few years ago in absolute agony with nerve and back pain. Both doctors and surgeons said there wasn’t anything they could do for me. So they wrote me a script for nerves pain meds and said I’d just have to live with the pain. I started looking into pain management options and came across Pulse Physiotherapy online. Didn’t really have any expectations at the time, but little did I know that working with Connor would actually change my life. I really appreciated his approach with me. Confident and reassuring every step of the way. Even when I was facing more surgeries he never gave up on me and would customize my treatment as needed. Connor taught me the tools I needed and set me up with a routine I could work with at home. When there was re-injury, or recurrence He would tweak things for me and get me on the mend again. Today I am pain free and practice what he showed me every single day. Super grateful for Pulse!! Thanks so much Connor!! Matt

Laurie Linehan

My experience at Pulse was a very positive one. I was able to return to my regular daily activities quickly after Adam assessed me and taught me the necessary exercises to improve my range of motion. The entire Pulse team is committed to getting people on the move again and is welcoming and friendly.

George Chapman

Pulse have a great reception team. They make you feel like family. The waiting room is homey and equipped with help yourself coffee. Very clean atmosphere and they even supply you with footwear. The therapist Jay, is very knowledgeable and empathetic towards his clients. He told us what to expect right from the beginning and that encouraged us. He also really cared about our progress. These qualities are very impressive to us and we have received great results. We would highly recommend Pulse to any one in need of physiotherapy. ???????????????????????? George Chapman

Jubilation Studios

Pulse is putting me back together physically and mentally. They know I need to keep training while I'm rehabilitating and they work with me to make it possible. Their understanding of athletes' needs is exceptional. They are friendly, current, and professional. I highly recommend this team.

The Micks Family

Amazing staff working here!!

Cody May

Connor, Adam and their team are phenomenal. As an avid runner I have seen Connor quite a bit for preventative maintenance. The experience is always amazing and this team clearly cares about this community. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pulse to anyone!

Vera Mainguy

Fantastic service! I highly recommend Pulse !!!!

Melissa MacDougall

Pulse has many excellent services in one location. The staff are caring and attentive, taking the time with each of their clients to work towards their goals. Would recommend!

Jaclyn K

I went to Pulse for pelvic physio and saw Jennifer Gemmell. I was nervous about going, but Jen was incredibly professional and made me feel comfortable throughout the assessment and subsequent visits. She worked with me to identify my goals and helped me to build self-management strategies that I can continue on my own. I only went for a few visits and have already had significant improvements in my chronic pelvic floor symptoms. Extra visits are not pushed on you and I truly feel that the patient’s best interests are prioritized at Pulse (sometimes clinics push an excessive amount of visits and passive treatment to keep you coming back). You actually get the therapist’s undivided attention rather than having them bouncing between several patients at a time. The facility is lovely and clean and the staff are all friendly and professional. Pulse clearly does a ton of continuing education with their therapists (you can see this for yourself via their social media accounts) and I am confident that they always provide high-quality evidence-based services! I would highly recommend them!

Jasmine Quinn

I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy! Working with Connor has been an amazing experience. All of the staff are helpful and lovely! They also have an amazing faculty. I would HIGHLY recommend

Scott Cannata

My experiences at this clinic have been fantastic. The staff are all very professional and progressive. This is the clinic for you, if you want a physio team to work with you and your goals.

Jessica Liu

I was really impressed with the quality of care that Pulse provides. I had been suffering from weakness and pain in my hands/wrists for such a long period that I was worried it would negatively impact my career options and love of crocheting. During my first visit, my physiotherapist Jay was able to figure out the problem within the first twenty minutes. After a month, my pain and strength have improved drastically, and I'll no longer need regular sessions. I'm so grateful for the level of knowledge, skill, and attentiveness from Jay. I'm beyond ecstatic that I'll be able to continue crocheting, and will recommend Pulse to all my friends. Thank you!

Varun Bhanot

Despite the pain from a minor injury it has been a rather delightful experience. Emma is extremely knowledgeable and skilled. It's a welcoming environment.

Shayna McLauchlan

I’ve been to Pulse for treatment with both Leah and Connor, and both have been fantastic. Very thorough in their assessments, concise and realistic with their treatment plans, and I have been able to get back to doing what I love with no (or less) pain, as well as gain a better understanding of my body and injury. Pulse is always investing in their continued education and I think that keeps their staff engaged and passionate about their work.

Krissy Lesar Pozzer

Wow, what a great experience I had at Pulse Physiotherapy recently! My appointment was easy to book and the direct billing to my insurance was an added bonus. Connor was so friendly and knowledgeable and I know I'm in great hands as he helps me recover from my recent injury. I was also impressed by how clean the office was. I will definitely be referring my family and friends here. Thank you Connor and Pulse!

Rachael Terrion

Pulse is amazing! Connor is very knowledgeable, and provided accessible work-outs that have been easy to maintain at home. The space is awesome, and the positive vibes from the staff are always appreciated.

Robert Gauvreau

Connor, Adam and their team at Pulse Physiotherapy are certainly 5 stars!! Myself, my wife, and our son have all had the privilege of working with the incredible professionals at Pulse and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a 5 star physiotherapy experience.

Adam Brown

I've been to the clinic to see both Adam and Connor and received great care from both. Connor helped me get my neck moving again from an old whiplash injury and I've seen Adam more recently for a sports injury. I'll be going back the next time I hurt myself :)

April Hope

I limped into Pulse Physio after a running injury and walked out an hour later with no question in my mind that I would be a regular Pulse patient from then on out. Service is great, staff is knowledgeable and talented. They've worked wonders for my husband's shoulder and back, and I am constantly referring everyone and anyone if I hear of even the slightest pain. 5 raving stars.

Jon Hedderwick

I can’t express how much I appreciate the time Leah and Connor have taken with me. I’ve been dealing with unexplained pain for over a year now. I had been through tests and had been bounced from specialist to specialist with no clear answers or relief. The specialist would rule out their area of expertise and then sends me on my way with no answers. Leah and Connor took the time to speak with me and really understand what I was experiencing. They took into account what I knew from the testing I had done and then worked with me to rule out possibilities and provide me with exercises until finally, we came upon an answer. Now after over a year of discomfort, I am nearly symptom free and have regained the confidence to be able to get back to doing the activities I love. From front desk to treatment room, I have nothing but positive experiences. In addition, they have excellent Covid-19 protocols. I've felt safe every time I've gone into the building.

MaryJane N. Proulx

Ella was amazing, so comfortable to talk to and really caring and patient. I am already feeling like I’ve progressed so much in my short amount of time with Pulse.

Mandy Spahn

I have been receiving treatment from Adam for multiple years for my various sports injuries and have always been very happy with the experience and my recovery. He is very capable and knowledgable and always willing to go the extra mile to get to the root of the problem and get me back on my feet. I recently started going to Pulse for Massage by Brandyn as well as Physio and have been very happy with my progress. The entire team at Pulse have been great since they opened - friendly, accommodating and efficient.

Kendra Chalmers

I only have good things to say about this place: COVID safe, incredibly friendly and knowledgeable staff, and the treatment went very well (thanks Jay).

Joe Hope

Pulse is very professional and friendly. Apts always start right on time and have early morning and after work apts. All of the physios are highly qualified and hands on. The whole session is always with the physio, not the assistant to fill in the time. I have gone for two different injuries, lower back and shoulder. They were able to identify the injuries and come and provide me with the proper treatment to get me back to normal in what seemed like no time. Top Notch!

Marilyn Young

My experience with Pulse Physio has been outstanding throughout treatments I received from Leah Stacjer for a concussion in 2017 and again in 2020 by Leah and Jay Marten. Now I am mostly pain free and have a set of exercises I use consistently to remain well. A fine job done by caring professionals! My thanks, Marni Young.

Corcoran’s Boxing and Fitness

Pulse physio helped keep my shoulder happy through all three of my training camps for my pro boxing fights!

Aislinn Moore

Working with Ella at Pulse Physio was a great experience. Her knowledge and capability as a physiotherapist is unmistakable and I am lucky to have had her support throughout my postpartum recovery. I highly recommend Ella and Pulse Physiotherapy!

Sarah Perrin

I HIGHLY recommend Pulse Physio! Connor has helped me with issues ranging from vertigo to feet! He is knowledgeable, professional, helpful, kind, funny and a super-clear communicator. I always feel that he’s listening closely and solution-oriented. I also had a fantastic experience with Jen for pelvic floor physio. They are the best of the best!!

Ian Dyck

Very helpful and knowledgeable folks!

Brien-Anne Couse

My experience at Pulse has been fantastic! I really appreciate that Connor is able to share the research behind what he has me doing and how thinking has changed in the last 5-10 years; that he has looked at not only my ankle but also the whole kinetic chain supporting proper overall performance; and that he listens to my questions and gives a full explanation. I highly recommend Pulse.

Samantha Spaans

such a friendly and professional atmosphere. Everyone makes you feel welcome and it is clear their staff not only know what they are doing but have the knowledge to back it up. I have and will continue to recommend people here! Also, RMT Kristine, freaking awesome!

Phil Chantegreil

At Pulse Physio, I was well taken care of. They helped me with: • pin-pointing the root of my injury • helping with exercises for reducing pain • isolating weakened muscles and rebuilding their strength • taking control of my path to full recovery The facility is super clean and spacious, and all the staff I encountered are very friendly. Thanks Connor and Team Pulse! ????

Nate Willems

Great massages! I have been coming here for over a year now. All staff i have dealt with have been extremely helpful.

Erin Brown

We got connected with Ella of Pulse Physio when looking for some physio support for our 10 year old daughter. She provided a thorough assessment, identified the underlying problem and supported us with a manageable treatment program for recovery. I really appreciated how Ella made her assessment and treatment plans fun and engaging! She has a great sense of humour and a very great approach to working with children. Her interventions helped my daughter not only recover from her physical difficulty, but also gain confidence in her abilities again and reduce some anxious responses that had started to develop from dealing with ongoing pain and dysfunction. We highly recommend Ella and would definitely seek her out again! Thank you so much.

Justin Stark (Starky)

Amazing people with amazing knowledge of the body. They know how to fix you up in a snap! ;)

Garrett Eddy

I have been to Pulse Physiotherapy multiple times for different injuries. I have had the pleasure to be helped by Adam and Connor and the recovery process was very well planned out. I usually need to get in and recover as fast as I can if I am in mid season, and the staff does everything they can to work with my schedule. I cannot thank Pulse enough for helping me recover to 100% and for always being there the next time I get injured. I will continue to recommend anyone I know to Pulse Physiotherapy.

Timothy Linehan

I know it's a funny thing to feel fortunate to be able to head back to physio, but that is the way I felt when some general back soreness led me to pick up the phone. Connor is able to assess issues and come up with treatment plans in the most accurate and efficient manner. And now I feel like the added space of the Performance Centre really allows the entire team at Pulse to implement their treatment plans with every weight and movement tool at their disposal, yet in a way that you can follow through on at home. As always, the front of house team make sure everything runs like a safe, well oiled machine. I have recommended Pulse Physio to at least a half dozen of my friends and colleagues from Cobourg. I have every confidence that their experience and results will make the drive time well spent indeed. Thanks again, Connor!

Marj Tellis

I started seeing a physiotherapist at Pulse Physiotherapy in December 2014 because of a hockey injury. Because I was having surgery in April 2015, I continued working with them...and am doing so now (May 2015). I have had the pleasure of working with both Connor and Adam, and both are among the best physiotherapists I have worked with. Connor is the main physio that works with me and my injuries. He is patient and knowledgeable; Connor is kind enough to answer all my questions (there's lots!!) and he explains why things are the way they are. I am most impressed by the time both physiotherapists have spent with me. It really feels like my reason for being there is important to them and that they want me to improve. The receptionists and the physiotherapists are amazing! I can't imagine receiving treatment anywhere else!

Matthew Shubat

Awesome place. I went here for a stubborn knee injury and Jay worked with me throughout my recovery. He was very attentive and professional in addressing my concerns and was calm and collected. While always coming up with new exercises for me to try, he was still always willing to listen to my concerns. Really pleased with my experience and would recommend Pulse Physiotherapy and working with Jay Martin.

Lisette Gelinas

Ella VanBruinessen is a wonderful physiotherapist with a special knack with kids. She worked with my 12 year old daughter who is a competitive gymnast and helped her overcome growing pains and issues that come with intensive training. My daughter adores her and trusted her enough to even try acupuncture, which Ella did with much success. I would highly recommend Ella to any parent looking for a physiotherapist for their child.

Caley Clements

I feel lucky to have found Ella when searching for a physiotherapist to work with my four-year-old daughter; it's not easy to find a physiotherapist in the city who specializes in working with children. Ella was kind and patient, and able to explain and demonstrate the exercises in both a kid- and parent-friendly manner. My daughter looked forward to her physio sessions! And her improvements in response to the recommended exercises were tremendous.

bev murphy

Jay Martin was my therapist starting early 2020. We did it over zoom which worked for exercises but he could not do any hands on work because of the lock down. Once the office opened, I was very impressed on their protocols for keeping the place sanitized. Jay communicates extremely well and is very knowledgeable. I have 99% complete use of my left arm after tearing my shoulder rotator cuff muscle. Very satisfied.

Jamie Leeder

This is now my second time attending Pulse for physio. I worked with Adam to help repair and strengthen an issue with my hand and wrist. I can't say enough positive things about this place. Firstly, it is one of the cleanest places I've ever been too (even prior to Covid), the staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the service to see a therapist is quick. Adam did an in depth assessment on my hand and wrist and gave me a variety of strengthening exercises that helped immensely. At this time, I no longer need to attend physio but I do know that should issues arise again, I will DEFINITELY be going back to Pulse!

Laura Eccles

Since starting at Pulse Physiotherapy my mobility and strength have improved greatly. I have tried multiple avenues over the years to improve my injury and this is the first time I am finally seeing substantial improvement. Connor is both knowledgeable and professional and the front staff are always welcoming and friendly. I highly reccomend Pulse.

Ian Keay

Connor and Adam always get me sorted out. Def recommend. 11/10.

Jessica Dalliday (The Healthy Sweet Potato)

I've been seeing Leah for pelvic floor physiotherapy for the last year now and she's amazing! She followed me throughout my entire pregnancy and postpartum and I am happy to say that my pelvic floor is in better shape now than it was before I had a baby! I love the care I receive from Pulse Physio and everyone there is so friendly and welcoming and they take their job very seriously. I wouldn't go anywhere else for Physiotherapy in Peterborough. Highly recommend!!

Cindy Mellow

I’ve been working with Connor for a few months now. I’ve had previous spinal surgery and had a back flare up. I thought for sure I was going to have to get another surgery but with the workouts and stretches Connor has prescribed I’m feeling like myself again. I have no more pain and that says a lot! I highly recommend Connor and his team at Pulse Physiotherapy.

Don Lesar

Connor and Adam have been working through the Canadian Orthopaedic Fellowship program through the Canadian Physiotherapy Association with me for the past 4 years. Based on the 200+ hours in this setting, I can speak to their high level of clinical reasoning and their exceptional manual therapy skills. If I were referring a friend or family member in the Peterborough area for physiotherapy I would definitely be sending them to Pulse knowing that they would receive a thorough assessment and excellent quality of care.

Ashley Robertson

Wonderful people. Great atmosphere! Recommend Pulse to all my friends!

Pamela Chamberlain

I’ve had great results from the physiotherapists at Pulse Physio & Performance. Most recently, I have worked with Leah for pelvic floor strengthening. For women, this can affect quality of life and limit one’s activities. In just a few short weeks, Leah has provided me with tools and techniques to address and improve my fitness level. Not all physiotherapists offer this focused service so I’m grateful to Pulse for having this area of specialty. I’ve also visited Pulse when having knee/back issues and have been extremely pleased with the results (thanks Emma). I’ve been impressed with Pulse’s operation and professionalism. I appreciate the level of care and knowledge Leah provided and will recommend Leah and Pulse as a quality service provider.

Katie Oickle

Lovely welcoming environment and Adam was a pleasure to work with!

SANDRA GINGRAS

I was suffering from Vertigo and nothing seemed to help until I was treated by Connor. After only a handful of treatments, the vertigo was gone. I would highly recommend Pulse Physio and Performance for any physiotherapy.

Brittany Crowley

I went to pulse as a nervous and uncomfortable new Mom (baby joined me at some appointments and the office adjusted to our needs)! It took time, but Jenn and Ella were able to bring the old "me" back postpartum. So glad I went and stuck with the at home tasks and in office treatments. Ella and Jenn are very professional and are great at explaining the issues and asking questions. I would highly recommend both of them for Pelvic Flood Physio (before) and after birth! The front desk ladies are also very welcoming and direct billing is a nice touch (they also seem to remember when I need to book some more sessions without me even having to ask). If you are experiencing postpartum issues, I promise you, it's worth it!

Cassandra Petch

I have been to Pulse most recently to see Leah in order to return to exercise postpartum. Leah made me feel very comfortable while obtaining my history and goals. She looks at the overall big picture and adjusts the plan to your goals and needs. Her knowledge is current and evidence based. Not only have I returned to exercise safety, but I am empowered to become stronger than I was before having my babies. I am so glad I went to her for pelvic floor physiotherapy.

A&Agj Summers

Great service from the time I entered the door to the goodbye. They were able to help with my neck pain and also give me some exercises to do at home before I saw them next. I will definitely go back!!!

Karen Heysel

April 2020 - had my first "Virtual" appt with Connor today and it was great. Connor was able to make a diagnosis and provide and exercise program to help. It actually had the added benefit that Connor could see the space/equipment I am working with at home and adapt his recommended exercises to fit my equipment/space. Exercise is a great way to help us in these times and Connor's advice today will keep me moving. Thanks Connor! Sept 2019 - I have seen Connor at Pulse Physiotherapy on and off for a couple years. He has listened intently to questions, concerns and goals and guided me to reach those goals. His wealth of up to date evidence based knowledge is amazing as is his memory as well as his focus on the client's goals and concerns. Connor has me back running painless weekly 10k's, something I thought was impossible, as well as Olympic distance triathlons at age 53! You need to do your homework but he is there with you 100% of the way! Thanks Connor and Pulse Physiotherapy!!

Crystal Gray

I had a massage by Alicia Corcoran today and HANDS DOWN it was the best massage I've had. I go regularly and it's very common to walk away let down because I enjoy a deep tissue massage. Alicia has strong hands and because of her personal fitness and knowledge of the body she not only gave a deep tissue massage but also treated every area without feeling like anything was missed. 5 stars for Alicia and pulse

Carolyn Wannamaker

Connor is great:) Eliminated my pain and instructed me on how to move forward to reduce the risk of reoccurrence. Highly recommended- great experience.

Katlyn Grills

Everyone at Pulse is awesome! Always accommodating, educational and friendly. I've seen Adam when I broke my ankle, I've recently seen Connor for a back problem, and I see Elysia for massages. Everyone is very knowledgeable and really works with you to target what you need and gets you back to feeling yourself! The clinic is always spotless and I would, and have, recommended Pulse to my friends and anyone I hear talking about doing physio or massage. Great place!

Adriana Mezei

I’d been seeing Leah for pelvic floor physiotherapy and after a few sessions my bladder was functioning well. She released pelvic floor tension, showed me how to breathe through the diaphragm and recommended stretches to do at home. It has been a few months now and my bladder is still functioning well. I highly recommend Leah for pelvic floor physiotherapy. She is not only knowledgeable and helpful but very approachable as well.

Shannon Mckinlay

I’ve been going to Pulse for services over the last couple of years. My experience has been met with nothing but great service and friendly staff right from my first time visiting. Connor has always been on time for appointments, provided great patient care and answered any questions I had along the way. I would highly recommend Pulse!

Anonymous Truthteller

They cancelled my first appointment following shoulder surgery and could only reschedule 2 weeks out. I was told I could go elsewhere if that wasn't suitable. I was astonished at how cold and unapologetic the receptionist was. This was following slap tear repair, distal clavicle excision, subacromial decompression and then frozen shoulder post op. Delaying physiotherapy was not an option. My appointments were booked a month ahead of time, surgeon had already sent referrals and OR notes, I had already booked time off work. Maybe they should stop accepting new clients to avoid this in the future.

tom reburn

Top notch crew @ Pulse Physio! Definitely recommend! They have a great massage therapy program as well.

Leah Kivisaari

Pulse physio was able to accommodate two appointments a week right from the beginning. I never wait past my appointment time. The office is very clean and professional. Connor is a great physiotherapist and I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy.

Mark Little

I began going to address my chronic back pain and started seen improvements after the first visit. Once that was addressed Connor provided me with exercises to target the other areas of my body. I now have a routine to keep me feeling strong, flexible, and most importantly pain free, that takes less than 15min to complete. I would highly recommend his services.

Kevin Crowe

A HUGE shout-out to Adam Summers who advised me on many recovery exercises and stretches to help my rotator cuff injuries….great services from all staff as well????…….would highly recommend…GREAT JOB!!

Jacob Donnelly

I've been using Pulse for a couple years now and they are great. All of their staff are knowledgeable and professional. Unlike some other place I have been in the past, the people at Pulse work with you to get you get better and stronger. I recommend Pulse to everyone looking to rehab an injury as you won't be disappointed in the results.

Jeremy Biden

The team at Pulse Physiotherapy is one of the key reasons I've been able to train so hard without hurting myself. A weekly visit is made easy with direct billing. Easy tips to help improve my mobility in my hips. Can't stress the importance of going to Pulse not when you need it because of an accident or a Doctors request but to make them apart of the routine for your body under general maintenance

Lynda Jackson

I’m truly grateful for support and therapy provided by Pulse Physio. I’m feeling stronger and feel prepared to carry on the self care I was taught. Highly recommend the services here. Wonderful staff as well.

Nicole Kirton

I can’t say enough about how wonderful Ella is as a Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist. I came to Pulse 5 months postpartum fearing prolapse. Not only did Ella help me physically, but she also helped ease my mind emotionally. She talked through my concerns with me, provided reassurance, and worked with me to get back to the level of activity I was striving for. After a month of working together I’m back to a regular exercise routine and feeling great. Pulse’s facility is beautiful, spacious, and clean and the staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful. I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy for all your physio needs!

Bob Gillespie

Can’t say enough good things about this Clinic! Adam and his entire team are extremely welcoming from the minute you walk in the door! They set realistic goals that definitely aided in my speedy recovery. I would highly recommend Pulse for all you physio and massage needs!

Trevor Dalliday

Great physiotherapy and massage. I always choose Pulse because they are knowledgeable and friendly and they always cure what ails me. I have a complex body from a prior car accident so I need a team who will focus on my specific injury and not take the cookie cutter approach like a lot of physiotherapists do.

Gina Bunting

I have been seeing Ella for pelvic floor physio pre and post hysterectomy which I would highly recommend. She is a wonderful physio, so knowledgeable and caring. As a retired physio I was struggling to find an excellent physiotherapy clinic to refer family and friends to- Pulse Physiotherapy is it! I wish I had found them years ago, I really appreciate that clients are seen 1:1 by their primary therapist and treatment is not passed off to assistants. This allows for excellent hands on treatments, constant reassessment and timely treatment progress. 5+++ stars!

Thomas Augustin

Adam Summers treated me for a lower back ailment. Adam listens to your description of the problem and comes up with a strategy to help you. I found he reevaluates as you progress to make sure your on the right track to wellness. Much better now than when i first walked in. Thanks

Andrew G

I have been going to Pulse Physiotherapy for a number of years now. I see Connor for all my injuries obtained during training and work. Connor is extremely knowledgeable and professional with every treatment. Connor impresses each time with his ability to treat my injuries so I can continue to train at a high level. Connor and his team are a main reason why I'm able to preform at a high level everyday and I'm grateful for their service. I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy and all their staff. Thanks, Andrew

Kathy Shaughnessy

For a person living with a chronic health condition I have grown to live with everyday aches and pains... until I started at Pulse Physiotherapy. Connor goes above and beyond to provide the most thorough health assessment in order to create a customized plan to help alleviate pain associated with musculoskeletal injury. I can’t recommend this clinic enough! I am finally able to go for a run without any hip flexor pain! I would recommend Pulse Physiotherapy to anyone!!

Chris Penrose

My experience with Pulse Therapy was wonderful. I had a total of 16 sessions with Connor & I am so pleased with the results. I have gained more mobility & strength in both my knee & lower back than I could have imagined. He is very knowledgeable & knew exactly what I needed. I also received Massage Therapy from Kristine. She was great. Always asked where I needed the most help & worked on those areas. I can’t thank them enough for all they did for me. I now have a brighter outlook on life.

Sean Harris

I’ve been very happy with pulse physio. The facility is great, the receptionists are great, and Adam has been incredible helping me recover after a separated shoulder and I’ve heard good things about everyone else there. I highly recommend them.

Chris Bellisario

Amazing service from the team here at Pulse Physio! Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. I had to find a new Physiotherapist in Peterborough, and made no mistake in choosing Pulse. They have immediately addressed and worked towards correcting my issues, and are always honest and focused on your goals when addressing your concerns. Amazing clinic and thank you again!

Anne Crowder

I have been going to Connor at Pulse Physiotherapy for several years now. First was a back issue, then 3 yrs ago, it was for physio for a broken arm. I am currently seeing him again for a pulled muscle. He is so knowledgeable and professional, and yet makes me feel so comfortable with him. This time I think one of the most important healing issues was that he fully explained in easy terms, exactly what my issue was. I would fully recommend him and Pulse Physiotherapy to anyone.

Smolly Coulson

Pulse Physiotherapy for magical moves to make you feel magnificent.

Lydia Ruth Sargeant

I cannot say enough good things about Pulse! I tore my ACL and went to see Connor- Extremely knowledgeable and caring- From the orthopedic tests to the actual physio plan designed, Connor was encouraging and made sure I healed to the best of my body's ability. After all my sessions my knee felt great and I'm back to being active. The home care was explained so clearly and I really felt capable and comfortable with everything! Thank you so much!

emily

After being in pain from constant muscle spasms, I booked a massage with Kristine Adams. In only 4 short weeks of going once a week for a massage my pain/ tingling in my arms decreased drastically. I have had the best experience with Pulse! I defiantly would recommend Pulse and Kristine to my family and friends or any one struggling with muscle spasms. Thanks so much Pulse for your continued support! I look forward to continuing coming to Pulse for my massage appointments.

Kim Vincent

I was referred to pulse physio a couple years ago by a coworker. That is when i first got to meet Connor. Very polite, very helpful and answers all your questions so you can understand them. I first came in with sciatic nerve issues not thinking id ever be able to stand at my job for 8 hrs again. But 3 months with him and a couple months on my own and i beat the younger coworkers at standing at work. Few years later i developed neck issues and knew exactly where i was going and who i wanted to see. Again Connor was awesome. Makes you feel good even when you had a rough week with the exercises. The best part is they only keep you as long as possible. No keeping you coming back to get your money. Gives you the tools to go out and fly yourself. Great work pulse physio i will always refer people to you!

I saw Connor for 6 physio sessions and it's made a huge difference in my pain level and how I understand and approach my condition. He's very knowledgeable and helpful. I also saw Brandyn for massage and she was equally wonderful and effective. And the direct billing is a huge plus. I'd recommend Pulse to anyone!

Chris Todd

Adam’s diagnostic and treatment approach to physio helped me successfully recover from an injury in less time than I expected.

Tanya Jones

Much thanks to Adam at Pulse Physiotherapy!! I had been struggling with a shoulder injury for many months which worsened into "frozen shoulder". In only a couple of months of care with Adam, my mobility returned and I am almost at 100% again. I love their combined approach of on-site therapy and home exercises. I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy! Thanks for giving me back my quality of life - Tanya

Jennifer Massimo

I recently saw Leah for pelvic physio and I can’t say enough good things about her! She was fantastic. So friendly and so helpful. She was extremely knowledgeable and was able to get me back to better than my baseline. The front desk team was fantastic, welcoming, and had submitted my claims before I even got to the desk after my appointment. I highly recommend this clinic!

Janice Skoblenick

After years of not being able to do proper squats, Connor was able to effectively and professionally determine the root cause of the problem. Poor ankle mobility. He created a great and efficient program to help me improve my ankle mobility and improve my squat. In addition, Connor also stays up to date on the most current research for PT's, making him a wealth of knowledge for clients and coworkers. I couldnt be happier with my experience at Pulse. Thanks Connor!

Jana Summers

I've been attending the Yoga sessions in the new studio space and it's been an amazing experience! I can't wait to try the Pilates in the fall.

Marie Dietrich

I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy and Ella VanBruinessen in particular. Ella made me feel at ease and did a wonderful job ensuring my treatment plan was customized to meet my needs.

Mariza Zister

My assessment and follow up treatments were professional and effective. Staff is always friendly, helpful and take pride in their work. I always feel comfortable at Pulse.

Patricia Dalliday

What an amazing and informative appointment with Leah. She was so professional and thorough. Following my visit she sent a detailed review email which added to my confidence. I would highly recommend Leah for any and all pelvic concerns.

Eric Knapp

Pulse Physio is a very welcoming and clean environment. I came to Pulse hoping to fix the constant pain in my right shoulder. I was in pain 24/7 and lost about 70% strength to do anything. I had my first assessment appointment with Connor Massimo. Connor was able to detect that my injury was my stabilization muscles for my rotator cuff. He was able to explain the injury that made sense to me, and had me participate in movements that proved his diagnosis of my injury. With a couple months of "homework" after each week's session, Connor was honest with telling me that I didn't need to keep coming back. I continued my exercises that was taught to me and passed a physical test required at work with 100%. My thanks goes out to pulse physio.

Jessica Dalliday

Had a great assessment and treatment with Connor Massimo today! I've had a shoulder/neck issue for years and Connor was able to identify the culprit almost immediately and was the first to address the root cause of my pain after seeing a lot of different practitioners. The treatment was excellent and I got to experience dry needling for the first time. My shoulder is feeling a lot better. Thanks Pulse Physio!!

Tammy Driscoll

Was very pleased with the support and services provided by the staff at Pulse. Very professional and knowledgeable!

John Hess

I came to Pulse with a simple goal and not only did they help me achieve it, they also equiped me with the knowledge and confidence to keep setting new goals for bettering my health. The team is always so pleasant to interact with and I look forward to our meetings. Scheduling is simple, and the environment is positive and clean every visit. A +, would recommend.

Stephen Dummitt

Connor has helped me strengthen and manage pain through 2 lower back surgeries over the past 4 years. I aways appreciate his honest, caring and evidence-based approach! The rest of the staff are always helpful and super-friendly. I highly recommend Pulse if you are looking for a physiotherapist in the Peterborough area!

Tyler McDannold

Connor is very professional and knowledgeable. I was struggling with gaining full range of motion back after I dislocated shoulder. He was able to give me a full understanding of the steps we were going to take. Work on building strength and flexibility back into my shoulder and surrounding muscles. Each week Connor gave me easy to follow exercises, and always asked what equipment I had at home to ensure the exercises he was providing would be possible with my limited home gym. The recovery process took 6 visit over 8 weeks! Back to 100%, and playing as much golf as I want pain free again. Thanks Connor.

James LaJoie

Awesome knowledge and service here. From the moment you walk in the door it is first class. I have been to a few other clinics before and never experienced a facility like this. The fitness area is large, open and very clean - giving you lots of space and comfort to learn the exercises. The private exam rooms are great too, providing lots of privacy and comfort. The knowledge and expertise is top notch. Connor is my Physiotherapist and he is very personable, great listener, and tells you exactly what you need to do to recover from your injury. In addition to everyone being super friendly, the scheduling of your next appointment and payment processes are seamless. This clinic has really thought of every detail to make it easy.

Stef Leopard

I had a lovely and positive experience working with Ella for some pelvic floor physiotherapy. She is so knowledgeable, open, supportive and flexible in her treatment. Having a disability, my treatment was a little different and she was able to easily adapt. The exercises she demonstrated and assigned me have helped me to see and feel progress in my target areas but also in reestablishing my own fitness routines now that I have a baby. I will definitely be back after any subsequent pregnancies!

Christina Scobie

Connor and his staff are professional and friendly. I was nervous to start physio, but Connor's knowledge and patience with my progress swiftly helped me overcome my worries. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or his services!

Andrew Welk

The experience I have had at Pulse Physiotherapy has been incredible. The admin staff are welcoming and Connor is an absolute genius when it comes to the human body and fixing injuries. I have had two injuries, both treated by Connor, and I would not go anywhere else for my third. Thanks Pulse Physiotherapy!!!

Mark Farthing

What sets Pulse ahead of the physiotherapy pack is the constant 1 v 1 attention from your main physiotherapist. With no physio assistants on staff, you are not first seen by your physiotherapist, and then by another staff member (if you are not passed off again). This is simply a customer friendly business setup, and has generated a feeling for me in which I was Mark at my actual stage of recovery, and not Patient #102189, week 3 of recovery. This combined with the calm, friendly, and relaxing environment created by the staff has me solidified as a customer for the foreseeable future! Thank you!

Tom Bryan

Dealt with morning back pain for a couple years and when it got so bad I was not able to move and stuck in bed for 2 days I decided to finally do something about it. The team at Pulse got me in within a day or two and got me on track with the proper structure for stretches and exercises. Jumping on the trampoline with the kids now and feel great! Thanks Connor!

Rose Green

My husband and I both attended Pulse Physiotherapy and both of us are so impressed with Connor and his staff. Connor educates his patients and is very positive and encouraging. He is extremely knowledgeable and cares about our progress. Both my husband and I have made remarkable progress thanks to Connor's help and guidance. We highly recommend Connor and his staff for all your physiotherapy needs.

Suzanne Lavoie

I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy. Connor Massimo has treated me for several issues ( angle, lower back, elbow) and for each condition, he quickly diagnosed the problem and found appropriate treatment. The staff at physio is friendly. Their gym space is excellent: clean, well organized and equipped with all the apparatus needed to treat a vast array of ailments. I love going tu Pulse physio where I feel I am in good hands. Thanks to you Connor, I can continue to ski, bike and restart my little weight lifting routine.

Mary Caibaiosai

I had been suffering from excruciating pain from frozen shoulder and was blessed to have found this clinic. The receptionist staff are courteous, friendly and efficient. I thought I may have to wait, but was given an appointment very quickly with Connor who really knows his work. I highly recommend his expertise. He came highly recommended! My condition has improved steadily and it was with his help, knowledge of my condition, and guided exercise routine. Highly recommend this clinic and professional manner.

Jenny Gleeson

Conner (Pulse physiotherapist and owner) provided me such comprehensive recovery program, with a lot of caring, information sharing to help me understand my recovery needs and expert advice that I felt very confident in. It's been the best physiotherapy experience I have had and I am now feeling happily recovered!

Mike & Mary-Lynn Langford

Having never been to see a physiotherapist before, i was recommended by my doctor to go for treatment of my shoulder pain. I had always thought that going for this type of treatment was usually for people who had been in a serious accident or had surgery of some sort. None of this applied to me and i was reluctant to go to say the least. Usually when i have aches and pain i just took it easy on the sore spot and it went away. But this pain had been hanging around way too long. I made the appointment and the Physicotherapist (Ella) asked me to explain my symptoms. She then recommended some simple exercises for me to do. After a few more treatments and new exercises i could feel the relief and had better movement in my shoulder... (a very belated) Thank you Ella for your professional guidance in helping me overcome this annoying pain.. I also would like to thank the staff at 'Pulse' for their welcoming atmospere that they greet you with when you enter...cheers! ...M.Langford

Paul Beamish

I have seen Connor many times over the years for various issues, mainly around my hips and knees. He has always been able to pinpoint the problem and more importantly given me the proper exercises to get and stay strong and enable me to return to running and an active lifestyle. The thing I like the most about Connor's approach is that he is never reluctant to urge me to lift more or push harder. My body thanks you Connor!

Danielle Simpson

What an amazing facility! I cannot express how deeply grateful I am for Connor, Leah and the amazing team at Pulse. They truly go above and beyond for their clients.

sherri carroll

Was referred to Pulse by a friend and they did not disappoint.....Kristine was amazing! staff was very professional adhering to all covid guidelines.... thank you

Laura Waltenbury

I went to Pulse Physio for a personal reason and met with Leah. With her help, I was able to over come some huge fears in my life. Thank you Leah for your amazing patience and calming abilities to help me achieve my goals!

Donna Mainguy

Pulse is great! Connor got me back to better then normal after a car accident ! He was more then knowledgeable and took time to explain why I was feeling the way I was and how my body would progress! Brent also helped getting me back to normal with massages ! Highly recommend both. Always greeted with a smile from all.

Monica Ray

Thank you Adam! Your experience, teaching and professionalism is outstanding. The acupuncture dry needling was very effective for my neck tension. Also very practical exercises that I can use day to day help manage my TMJ. I can’t thank you enough!

Alyssa Rowe

I have been going here for 4 weeks now for an injury I have been dealing with for years and have had immediate pain relief! Professionally Adam and all the staff at Pulse are amazing, diligent and truly care about your recovery. Thank you!

Aaron Carter

Pulse Physiotherapy helped me with my a shoulder injury I suffered playing squash. I found them very knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. Connor was able to guide me to recovery sooner then expected, and gave me lot's of good exercises and advice for preventing other squash related injuries. I would highly recommend them.

Leah Will

10/10 would recommend this clinic. Being a powerlifter, I value the importance of training and movement and this clinic shares the same values. Connor was extremely helpful in getting me back into top shape for a competition, and teaching me movement patterns to add into my routine to keep me healthy. The entire staff is friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about what they do!

Michelle Collins

First experience with Physio. Jay was great at providing instruction, direction & exercises. Highly recommended.

Jessica Watson

Went there months after a concussion due to recurring symptoms (and after 8 weeks of chiropractic). Within less than 2 months Jay had me back to normal and feeling great. Can’t say enough about the quality of physio, and how helpful they are. I’ve been to other clinics but have never felt relief like I have after going here. It’s been a couple of months since going there and I’m still pain free!

Sean Quinlan

Connor was such a great help and guide with my recovery from concussion and neck issues. It was my first time doing physio after a concussion and Connor was great with checking in and knowing what exercises to use, and explaining what was happening with my neck.

David Bonn

Exceptional service, well organized and outstanding care. A+ highly recommended!!

Judy Privett

My experience at Pulse Therapy has been very rewarding. I cannot say enough about the knowledge and level of support I received from my physiotherapist, Connor. The treatment plan is a joint effort between patient and physiotherapist and the home exercises that are recommended are within your reach. Connor always provides support and education on the importance of maintaining. The front office and treatment areas are extremely clean and fresh environment. The staff area always friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend.

Heather Crowley

Pulse Physiotherapy provides an experience that is second to none. Connor and Adam are excellent physiotherapists, who take the time to listen to patients and explain their techniques. The office is highly professional, while remaining a comfortable and welcoming environment.

Karen BASCIANO-IRELAND

I wanted to share my experiences with Pulse Physiotherapy. I had surgical repair of an old meniscal injury so researched to find what I thought I needed which brought me to Pulse. I met with Jay who was kind & informative. He did a thorough assessment & guided me through my recovery. He introduced me to dry needling, did some great hands on therapy work and offered great strength building exercises which I continue to follow. I felt he was truly genuine, had my needs at heart, and guided me to just enough therapy to allow healing to progress in a timely manner, being careful not to overburden the injury and not overwhelm my finances to promote the best therapeutic results. Thanks Jay!

Jack Seabrook

Hello folks, My experience with Pulse has been nothing short of excellent. I have required physiotherapy on multiple occasions throughout my life and I have tried different locations for care. On my account, no physiotherapy location comes close to competing with the quality of care Pulse offers. I wouldn’t recommend somebody go anywhere else. What is even more impressive is that they were able to provide nearly the same quality of care over a zoom session amidst the pandemic. Even after the pandemic I would be happy to opt for this convenient option. There is no doubt in my mind that should I need help again I will return to Pulse. I would take their zoom appointments over an in person session with a different provider any day.

joe mullen

With a physically demanding career, and a passion for sports and fitness I have spent a lot of time at various Physiotherapists. Pulse physio is by far the most effective and thorough treatment I have received yet. Pinpoint diagnosis, and useful functional rehab was and is key to keeping me active. Thanks Pulse and Connor.

Jessica Conlin

I had severe shoulder pain for several months and the physiotherapists at pulse were able to relieve the pain and help me get back 100% mobility in just a few sessions. I would highly recommend them to anyone with an injury or in need of therapy.

Pat Callaghan

Great service awesome people!

Lauren Bradshaw

I have WAY too many amazing things to say about Pulse Physio for one tiny Google review. Pulse has completely changed my life for 3 separate issues, at different times over the last 4 years. They are completely professional, modern, innovative and overall impressive! Employees are carefully selected for extensive knowledge and positive client experience, and it shows. Everyone I talk to, I recommend go here for their physiotherapy needs. I have loved watching this business grow, and look forward to see what the future has in store for these amazing people!

Dave Wheeler

Adam and team are absolutely amazing at what they do. I came into physio with the fear of dealing with a long term injury. Adam was able to confidently address my concerns, set realistic goals and worked wonders to help guide me into resolving my injury. I grateful for his knowledge and experience.

Neil Morton

Shoutout to Connor Massimo from Pulse Physiotherapy who said to take that old, achy back of mine and strengthen it, and I'd get back to playing basketball after years away -- and be able to lift heavy stuff again without fear of "tweaking" my back. Doing the back exercises daily that he taught me has made a huge difference. Don't let a weak back define you, go see Connor. I was always on the defensive with it until I saw him, and his offensive approach has worked.

Judy Messervey

I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy. The Covid protocol at the clinic is top notch. The front desk staff is very efficient, sending reminders of upcoming appointments and emailing receipts after each appointment. My therapist, Connor, has been wonderful. He fully explained my problem and has addressed exercises and strength training with followup weekly. I have been very happy with my treatment!

Gayelyn Heffernan

I have worked with several physiotherapists at Pulse, and I am always impressed with their knowledge, compassion, and professionalism. I would encourage any patient requiring physical therapy to utilize the services of Connor and his team. I would also encourage them to follow the Pulse team on Instagram.

Lisa LaJoie

I saw Connor at Pulse related to an acute pain in my neck/back. Connor assessed the injury, manipulated the joints and muscles in a way that provided some immediate relief and gave me exercises to do right away. He set expectations for how I would feel in the short term and when I could expect to feel better. Something that stuck with me was when Connor reassured me that I couldn't hurt my neck/back more by moving it. I have experienced this same injury in the past but the importance of movement was not highlighted in the same way by other practitioners I saw. (For the record: I was living in a different city at the time and not seeing anyone employed at Pulse)! Connor's advice made a huge difference in my recovery time. I did the recommended stretches and exercises and only one week later, am back to my regular routine, pain free. This is significant considering I was "out" for over 4 weeks the last time this happened. The only downside in feeling 100% better after only 3 appointments, is that I'll miss seeing Connor and all the friendly people at Pulse!

Brian D

Connor was extremely supportive and effective at guiding my concussion recovery and I'm happily no longer a patient!

Brandon Drouillard

I received physio treatment from Adam at pulse for a strained adductor muscle and I couldnt be happier with the results! Adam got me back to resuming regular work duties in 2 weeks, has been very informative with recovery expectations and our treatment plan! Im pain-free and able to sleep and work without any discomfort. If you ever need physio treatment I highly suggest heading to pulse!

Katie Juritsch

Jay and everyone there were super nice and helped me with my shoulder and neck pain and got it down to zero. I can’t thank them enough!

Marg Regts

So happy to have found this place! I am always greeted and dealt with in a professional and friendly manner, from their A+ front desk staff. My physiotherapist was very knowledgeable about my knee injury - I have felt nothing but confidence in his plan. And I am getting results!!! I have recently started seeing their fantastic massage therapist too - WOW!

Anne Lewis

I had great service would and would recommend their service anytime

M & C Hele

Pulse physio is highly recommended in my books. It is a very well organized facility. From the ease of booking my first appointment, and going to each appointment they were always so punctual. They have very good Covid protocols as well. Everyone from the front desk staff, was always friendly and nice. Jay was very helpful, and so easy to talk to, and explained things thoroughly. I will definitely recommend family and friends to Pulse physio.

Theresa Robertson

I had a phenomenal experience at pulse - extremely knowledgeable and professional staff. Would highly recommend pulse to anyone!

Susan Rashotte

I have worked with Connor on a couple of occasions and would highly recommend him. He is extremely knowledgable, and professional. I was given exercises to do which have greatly helped to restore mobility and strength to the area needing attention. The clinic is very safe and adhere to all the regulations as set out. Front line staff also attentive and friendly. If anyone I know needs a physiotherapist I will definitely recommend Pulse.

Haley Nyboer

I have attended Pulse Physiotherapy a few times over the past 3 years. My experiences have been very positive! I have worked with two physiotherapists- Ella and Connor. They were both very knowledgeable, patient centred and practiced with an evidence based approach, which I appreciated! I would recommend this clinic to anyone looking to recover from injury/pain and increase strength and mobility.

Mike Watt

After a year of an undiagnosed injury, one visit with Connor had me on the right path to a full recovery. Their attention to detail and standard of care is second to none. Great spot, highly recommended.

Marie-Eve Houde

Highly recommend! Staff was very kind and professional. My physiotherapist was Dr. VanBruinessen and she was great, only ended up needing a few visits and am very happy with the results! Thank you :)

Brandon Clarke

Highly recommend pulse physiotherapy , after sustaining a severe foot injury , and had enough of the daily pain , Connor had me virtually pain free in 6 weeks the difference is night and day !

Amber Bulmer

Pulse Physiotherapy was recommended to me by a friend and it was the best choice I could have made! I went from being unable to press due to shoulder pain, and within a month my physiotherapist, Connor, had me back to pressing with no pain! Highly recommended!!

Susan Watts

Best physio and massage in Peterborough, Never thought physio therapy could work until my husband was seen by Connor. My husband has had neck and back pain for years and Connor was able to make him pain free. As a health care professional I will recommend this business over and over.

Lisa Feyerabend

Great, friendly front staff! Young professionals that look after you well, who really listen to what you have to say. All exam rooms are private, no curtains, actually rooms which are always kept clean. The Physiotherapists are always learning and continuing their education. Highly recommend.

Michelle Nelson

Pulse Physiotherapy is an inspiring place to be! I recently had an opportunity to collaborate with the team during a 6-week placement for Queen's University. The team of physiotherapists are incredibly knowledgeable, encouraging, and passionate about what they do. The site was very welcoming from day 1 of my placement with super friendly staff. The team is passionate about working with clients to reach their goals. My clinical instructors Leah Stajcer and Jennifer Gemmell are amazing and really encouraged me to dive in and think outside the box. They went out of their way to make me feel comfortable, providing me with the knowledge and tools needed to be successful in physiotherapy. I have learned so much about a wide variety of cases, including pelvic health. I have had such a positive experience here at Pulse.

Nicole McArthur

Pulse Physiotherapy has been incredibly helpful for me - I’ve had 4 separate injuries all of which Connor has been able to work with me through and help me get back to 100%. They are extremely knowledgeable and seem to be able to pinpoint the exact issue and treat it right away - I have often felt relief after just one appointment. Staff are great as well, appointments are always on time and extended evening and morning hours are helpful to fit into your schedule. I would recommend Pulse to anyone!

Shelley Budd

I had been having neck and shoulder pain on and off for years. The most recent time was longer and worse than ever. I felt like I had tried everything possible and was feeling completely discouraged. My GP referred me to pulse physiotherapy. Within a month I’m almost pain free and hoping to be discharged with home exercises next month. Connor was very knowledgeable, reassuring, personable and motivating! Such a good experience!

Mike Temple

Amazing team, they work to get you back into the action, along with accessory movements to support your rehab long-term. I’d give a 6th star...

Rachel Bulgin

After having great difficulty recovering from an injury, I decided to go to Pulse at the recommendation of multiple friends and peers in the fitness industry. My experience there has been phenomenal. All of the staff are friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable. Specifically, Connor has been an incredible source of knowledge and experience, and has been vital in my healing process. I will continue to go to him in the future, and I highly recommend Pulse for treatment, recovery, and maintenance.

Garrett Spahn

After my accident I could hardly get out of bed. Since working with Adam for the last 5 months I can now do all of my normal physical activities. I am going to run a half marathon in April. All thanks to Adam. He is the best!!!. And very funny!!

Samuel Choi

I’ve just completed my student placement at Pulse Physiotherapy and I have nothing but good things to say about the clinic and the people there. Starting from the first point of contact, the administration team. Alyson, Amber, Chelsea, and Jen A. provide a warm and welcoming atmosphere as soon as you enter the doors. Their interactions with clients are sincere and the service they provide are definitely first class! I can’t forget the clinic manager, Meghan. She has been accommodating me since day one and has streamlined my experience here. Also, she is an amazing artist and you will find some of her abstract art displayed across the clinic. Next, the massage therapists Brent, Elysia, and Kristine. They are all amazing at what they do. Not only are they are extremely knowledgeable and experts in providing soft tissue treatment, but they also try to incorporate movement into their therapeutic sessions. If you are looking for firm pressure during your massage, you will not be disappointed with this team, especially Kristine as she is an esteemed member of the 1000 pound club (an incredible feat in powerlifting). Now on to the physiotherapists, Ella, Emma, Jay, and Jen G. Ella possesses great knowledge in pelvic health and should definitely be your go-to in PTBO, but she also has a great sense of humor who will make you comfortable in your times of vulnerability. Emma is a strong advocate for self-efficacy in clients through their rehabilitation. She considers your goals in mind while providing amazing education and movement-based therapy. Another amazing physio to take note of is Jay. Not only does he have an extensive amount of bone tissue in his body, but also an extensive amount of knowledge and experience in orthopedics and treatment techniques. He continues to seek opportunities where he can add new methods of treatment into his repertoire, even after all the education he has accumulated. Lastly, Jen G. is a sweet 60-year-old lady in a 25-year-old body as she is wise and caring. She will go above and beyond for her clients, has a strong compassion for helping people get better, and an eager learner who is always seeking to gain more knowledge. Finally, my clinical instructors and mentors Adam and Connor. They have been nothing short of extraordinary as clinicians and teachers. They have a great compassion for the profession and building connections with their clients and community. This may be one reason they are able to cultivate not just an amazing team, but a family at Pulse Physiotherapy. Adam and Connor welcomed me with open arms and built me up as a physio-in-training. My placement here will be memorable which was made possible by Adam and Connor’s sense of humour, charisma, and genuine concern for providing the best possible teaching experience. The end is bittersweet, but if I can apply even half of the clinical, rapport-building, and communication skills Adam and Connor possess after graduation, I would be confident that I could provide quality patient care.

casey burnie

I recently was involved in a car accident on the highway. I didn't have any knowledge of where or how to go about getting treatment that my insurance company provided... luckily I came across Pulse Physiotherapy. It was a tough time getting my rental car, dealing with work and the accident, but the staff made all that manageable by dealing with the insurance company on my behalf along with giving me a flexible schedule for treatment that worked for my work and family. I can't thank Connor and Kristine enough for all the hours they spent providing me with physio and massage therapy I needed to get back to work and into my regular routine before the accident. They were both extremely professional and easy to work with, and provided me with workouts and routines I could even do at home to help me in my progress. Thank you again Connor, Kristine and the staff at Pulse Physiotherapy for making this process so smooth, manageable, flexible and rewarding through that difficult time after my accident!

Jamie Grant

I’ve Been to numerous physio therapy offices around Peterborough all with little to no results. I work out 5-6 days a week, mostly swimming and running, and this is the first place I have ever seen results from physio. I can’t say enough good things about this place. I usually see Jay Martin or Adam and the treatments are all hands on, with stretching the various areas of concern and dry needling. The exercises I’ve been given have worked amazingly well to correct for weaknesses. Front desk staff are very friendly and helpful. If your looking for a therapist around Peterborough this is the place to go.

Lee Condon

Outstanding service, friendly staff, very impressive facility and up to date knowledge. They helped me recover from a variety of injuries with up to date movement based techniques to not only recover from injury but improve strength and movement quality in order to properly resolve the issue and prevent future injuries.

Felicia Skakoon

I highly recommend Pulse Physiotherapy! Connor Massimo helped me for apx 4 months with my recovery from a broken ankle. He is very knowledgable, a fantastic listener and truly knows what he is doing. Every visit I felt very comfortable and knew I was in good hands. I was very impressed with how quickly I was able to get back to walking, stairs and exercise. Thank you for all of your hard work Connor. Although I have finished my physio, I have continued to go to Pulse for massage with Kristine. Kristine is one of the best RMT in town! I have recommended Pulse to many friends and family! Thank you again to the entire team!

Travis Brault

Awesome experience here. They helped me fix a nagging shoulder injury I had for years after only 3 appointments!

Stacey Britton

My child was experiencing knee and ankle pain due to over flexibility. Physiotherapy was prescribed by our pediatrician to help reduce that pain. She was nervous going in as she really didn't know what to expect. Right from the start Ella was great with her, she made her feel relaxed and comfortable, and always had her willing participation in each session. Ella's encouragement and patience when giving direction on the exercises and answering questions (SO MANY questions!!) regarding each exercise in invaluable. Ella provide the environment needed for my child to take an interest in and take responsibility for her own progression in therapy. She looked forward to her sessions with Ella and eventually started doing her "homework" on her own without being reminded because she wanted Ella to notice the improvement. Ella made physiotherapy fun and something to look forward to; she was very sad when her time with her was finished and will miss her. I would highly recommend Ella if physiotherapy is needed, especially for kids!!

Lorelei Archibald

Sorry for the late review! But this place was great; very open floor plan with lots of room to do the exercises. Emma was amazing; she asked what I wanted out of the physiotherapy and based the care plan on my unique symptoms and goals. Her explanations of both the injury and the exercises were very thorough. She was always asking for feedback on how the exercises and stretches were working for me, and changed things accordingly. Not only did she help me work toward regaining strength in my foot and ankle, but she got movement back in my ankle that I thought I had permanently lost over a decade ago, and did it safely. I can't thank you enough!

Josh OBrien

Great physiotherapy! I've been to many in the area but Connor and his team are the best. For guys working construction, hard labour and have bad backs, or just reoccuring injuries while trying to reach your fitness goals. Ive had nothing but success

Lauren Tonelli

The virtual appointments work so well!! Super easy to set up and do, they can see what equipment you have to work with, and they can watch you do all the movements they prescribe. Had virtual appointments with Connor for a shoulder injury and he was a life saver. I went from limited range of motion and pain to back to normal within two months. We worked through increasingly difficult movements until I was back to no pain, and now I have a great at home shoulder workout built for me. Also, the workouts that they post on their Instagram are fantastic and can be done with little to no equipment (but also shows you how to use the stuff you may have). Couldn't be happier with Pulse

Josh Wasson

Adam and the staff at Pulse are the best you could ask for. I went to them with an Achilles injury that I assumed was destined for surgery but wanted to see if some physio could help first. After a careful and thought out plan and working closely with me for 3.5 months, I have been given my active lifestyle back. I could not be more grateful and thankful for Adam and the rest of the staff at Pulse for their knowledge and expertise while providing a wonderful experience working with them.

Eloise Bucholtz

Once again l needed help with a body pain; this time with my back.Leah helped with the physical treatment and was also so generous to share what is really happening with muscles, spine and movement. I really was pleasantly surprised to get her follow up WITH VIDEOS! Pulse Team..THE BEST!!

Solo Bark

Attended Pulse for shoulder problem that had pretty much shut down most of activity and was keeping me from sleeping. I found the treatment approach and exercises provided by Jay to be excellent and restored my shoulder functionality. He then worked on my other shoulder which had been partly rehabbed years ago by another physio office and made a big improvement there as well. Admin staff are friendly and welcoming. Thanks Pulse!

Julie Stark

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Safe Covid protocols. Highly recommend this team.

Meghan Lytle

Connor was great and designed a recovery plan that was easy to implement at the clinic and at home. He was super supportive and helped me reach my goals at my own pace.

Kavisha Patel

Pulse physiotherapy is best place to recieve physiotherapy. Leah is a wonderful physiotherapist. She is a very good listener, has great knowledge in the field and has most gentle yet effective skills. I visited pulse physiotherapy after a car accident for the treatment of whiplash injury last year. Entire team took care of me and helped me to get out of pain really fast. I would definitely love to come back. Leah is the best physiotherapist i have seen.. thank you very much Leah for helping me out!!!
