Reviews of East York Massage and Physiotherapy Studio (Physiotherapist)

Booked a massage and the receptionist told me the name of the RMT but it sounded like a woman’s name so I didn’t ask further questions. I also asked if I could come on the day and decide how long I wanted it for. I showed up to my appointment to find out it was a male RMT. I think I would’ve appreciated knowing ahead of time or been given a head ups. He also told me he only had 30 minutes available on the day which was a bummer cause the receptionist didn’t warn me spots might fill up. Overall it was a great massage and he was super professional. I think I just would’ve appreciated more information presented ahead of time to prepare, especially since it was my first massage.

Incredible experience with Fanaye and her expertise in physiotherapy. I was able to correct my posture and lower back pain in a short 5 sessions. Additionally, she has tailored a workout plan to suit my goals. I intend on returning as her work has made me more mindful and in touch with my body. Also, she's hilarious and kind. Check her out!

Linda Weldon

Incredibly knowledge and friendly physiotherapists. They have helped me tremendously! Best physiotherapists I have ever been to. Highly recommend!

I found Dr. Fanaye through Google and I am so pleased with my experience with her. Her knowledge and proficiency as a physiotherapist helped me overcome pain which I had for more than two years. I highly recommend Dr. Fanaye to anyone in need of her services.

Daniel is the best physio I could hope for. He not only educated me on the mechanics of my body and supported me physically through the rehab process, but also helped me get out of my head so I could get back to doing what I love (running) faster. He’s easy to talk to, super amiable, and very importantly, has excellent taste in music. 100% recommend paying him a visit.

Had a great experience with my physiotherapist, Daniel, at East York Massage and Physiotherapy. Spent several weeks there recovering from a ligament tear. He gave me exercises to help my recovery and was very encouraging and positive. I would higher recommend seeing Daniel if you need help!!

My experiences at East York Massage and Physiotherapy Studio has always been an inviting, positive and uplifting. The small and subtle details that go into the ambience is impeccable. I am very particular about bathrooms but this bathroom is spacious, clean as a whistle and gives the feeling of being at a spa. I loved the details to rolling the small hand towels because it is such a special touch. The art décor in the corner of the wall is 3D like and just marvelous! The rooms for massage therapy are inviting and very comfortable. And the color scheme throughout the entire studio flows well and hence the energy is always great!! Thank you East York Massage and Physiotherapy Studio for such an amazing experience each time!!!

As a patient with East York Massage Physiotherapy I couldn't be happier; highly recommendthem. I chipped my left ankle and then a month later badly sprained my right ankle. Physiotherapy treatment given to me by Daniel was outstanding and he had me up and about in no time. As well as doing a few Massage Treatments that helped as well.

I can't boast enough about East York Massage and Physiotherapy. I've been being treated there for years. They are the reason I can still get up and out of bed to get to work most days.

Fanaye is a phenomenal physiotherapist! She is extremely knowledgeable, professional and easy going. I have a specific autoimmune condition and knowing that she has worked with others like me was a god send and put me at ease. They take a team approach when working with multiple therapists! When dealing with chronic pain, physiotherapy has been my only pain relief! I highly recommend Fanaye and East York Massage and Physiotherapy Studio!

Bridget Boucher

Angela is the best! (Even if she makes me do bird dogs). Highly recommend :)

Richard Chmura

I worked with Daniel Lustgarten and really appreciated how knowledgeable, professional, patient and personable he was. It was a pleasure to train with Daniel and I looked forward to each visit and improved in both mind and body. I highly recommend Daniel as a master in his field.

Theresa Marie

Tracy knows her stuff! She is clearly, highly trained, incredibly knowledgeable and loves what she does! She is intuitive, knowing what you need even when you don’t. Hip issues? Go see her! You will walk away from your appointment…well…walking with ease!

Andrea Singleton

I have suffered from Chronic pain back and knee pain for quite sometime now. I was very skeptical that Physiotherapy would work for me, I honestly thought I would just have to deal with this pain for life. Boy was I wrong and I wish I had of started Physio sooner! East York Massage and Physiotheropy studio is a great place, everyone is welcoming and friendly and it is very clean! I have been working with Daniel for over a month now and he is absolutely amazing!! Very Friendly and professional, he has taught me what to do and what not to do to help manage my back & knee pain. He has been teaching me what exercises work for me as well as some ultrasound and massage. After the 3rd or 4th session my back pain went from an 8 to a 3! I was absolutely shocked that this is working for me. I honestly can not thank Daniel enough he has definitely helped me tremendously ???? I highly recommend this place & Daniel ????

Had my psyio session with Fanaye and I felt she genuinely cares for my well being as well as provide amazing psyio service. Highly recommended.

belinda ageda

Daniel provided me my first physiotherapeutic experience and it was excellent, from my arrival with knee pain to my departure feeling relieved and informed. Thanks so much!!

Judy Phillips

I have dealt with several of the practitioners at this clinic. I currently see Daniel and Erin regularly. They have both helped me immensely with several issues. Daniel has helped me to be able to walk well after having a hip replacement and needing help strengthening my hip muscles and range of motion. He has also helped with some other challenges. He will try several different approaches until something works. I would recommend him to anyone. Erin has helped me to stave off regular headaches. I can’t thank them both enough.

jack ducker

This studio is run by people who genuinely care about your well-being and will take care of you. I use the studio for both massage and physiotherapy and both Fanaye and Erin are amazing.

John Howse

The most professional, experienced physiotherapists I've ever had. As a retired firefighter I've definitely had my share of Phyio. They just never give up and instill a willingness to do your 'exercises'. Wonderful personalities as well. Fanaye and Daniel are amazing. I wouldn't look anywhere else.

Kami Wilson

If there is any positive to come from a shattered wrist it would definitely be meeting the amazing Fanaye and being under her care - with her therapy knowledge and compassion I am so thankful to have been treated by her. She is with you thru the pain and the tears and she knows how to turn it all to laughter! Truly a great place!!

Tanya Morgan

The physiotherapy treatment Daniel has provided has been very helpful. I experienced improvement throughout my sessions and Daniel has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to continue me progress through a home regiment. Thank you Daniel.

Michael Vettese

I had a great massage today with RMT Amanda. In every imaginable way a huge step up from the massage chains that I have gone to in the past. Excellent customer service and no nonsense therapy that focuses on improving the function of your body rather than lulling you to sleep with cheesy spa music and watered down Swedish massage. Will definitely be getting my next massage here!

Lindsay Nikolovski

Fanaye is an angel! I went to East york massage and physio because I was having lower back pain in a specific area and after just 2 months of consecutive treatment and following her program I can say I truly have little to no pain anymore! She was able to find multiple imbalances and weak points which we worked on week after week. She gives reasonable exercises that you can stick to. I was not overwhelmed at all. What I loved about east york physio was that Fanaye was hands on, showing you the exercises, making sure you're doing them right and did a lot of manual therapy. I highly recommend her!

Tamara Sharpe

I have been going to Erin regularly for almost 2 years and she is the absolute best! I always look forward to my massage appointments with her. She has helped relieve my shoulder and lower back pain and for that I am forever grateful! Erin is so kind, friendly and caring and her massages are always a highlight of my week! I can’t recommend her enough!

Ollie Gee

The secret is out Tracy is amazing. Which why she is fully booked all the time. Her hands are magic compared to some of the other RMTs I've tried. Lot of them seem to mix a relaxing spa rub down with elements of therapeutic massage, while Tracy is full on therapeutic massage. She was able to address all my trouble spots and I had lot of pain relief after my session. Can not recommend her enough, just have book months in advance.

Falcon Jade

I received massage here with Lei and it was amazing!

Maria Farrol

Daniel is like a detective. He asks you questions about yourself and then asks you to do certain exercises. From there he narrows down to what specific healing exercises you can do to help your injury. Finally he leaves you with strengthening exercises you can do at home. This may all seem simple enough to do but can only be accomplished with a credible physiotherapist like Daniel. You've helped me a great deal, thank you!

John Kez

Been suffering from a chronic pain issue for a long time. I figured it was just a part of getting old. Decided to try out physio after it got really bad. Fanaye was able to clear up a lot of issues and and provide reasons for the way I was feeling and how to correct it. What a warm and inviting atmosphere. I should of come here a long time ago. Thanks Fanaye

Curtis Bell

I really enjoy coming here, everyone instantly makes you feel at ease. Angela is a thorough professional who designed an effective treatment program for me; I'm moving again without tightness and pain. I will definitely continue to recommend the services offered here to others.

Daniel Hutton

Amazing service and results. My back pain had me miserable but after seeing Erin for massage and Fanaye and Daniel for physio I feel so much better.

Dave Speiran

I’ve been seeing Tracy for the past 8 months. She is wonderful! Listens to any and all of my concerns and caters the treatment each and every time. She’s very easy to talk to, has a great sense of humour and genuinely wants to help you feel better. My wife now also sees Tracy on a regular basis. I would highly recommend her.

M S

Tracy has been incredible in helping alleviate the pain and stiffness in my neck and back as a result of working from home. The studio is clean and the staff have been great. Highly recommend

Lucia C

I have been coming to this clinic for the last few years. I have seen Erin and Tracy for massage and Fanaye for physio . Erin is terrific! She has a therapeutic but gentle touch. Tracy is my jam! She really knows all the places that need the work. She is strong but takes my suggestions for pressure well, generally she can read what I need. Which is usually to get beat up! Haha! She knows her stuff and I always leave feeling great! Fanaye is fun and her laugh is awesome! She makes physio go by quickly and helps you figure out the root of your issues. You can trust that you can go there and see anyone and be in trusting caring hands. It's clean and I feel 100% safe there. I mean they have the most extensive COVID questionnaire out there! They are doing proper screening.

Gary Leung

I went to see Angela a Physiotherapist for a nagging knee pain. Angela is very knowledgable at her profession. She very quickly discovered the core issue was not my knee but a stiff back muscle that was causing the pain in my knee. After working on my back during that one session, my knee issue was gone. I would definitely recommend her as she really cares for her patients with follow up emails and exercises to help improve your quality of life.

Michael Wong

his thank you is well overdue. On October 5, 2020, I was on my morning jog when I fell and dislocated my right shoulder joint, resulting in what is referred to as a rotator cuff injury. I was taken to hospital emergency department where under general anaesthesia the joint was put back into place. To relieve some of the pain associated with the injury I was treated with acupuncture for 2 or 3 sessions after which the acupuncturist suggested that I get an ultrasound image of my injured shoulder and elbow. She also suggested that I begin physiotherapy since the pain had subsided. The ultrasound revealed severe damage to some of the tendons associated with lifting my arm. My daughter recommended East York Physiotherapy, where she had been treated by Fanaye. Angela was assigned as my therapist. Angela turned out to be far more than just a competent physiotherapist. She displayed an extra ordinary analytical ability in recognizing the extent of the injury. After several sessions she realized that the improvement in the movement of my shoulder was less than she expected. She told me that she suspected that I not only had tendon damage, but my axillary nerve was also damaged. She suggested that I ask my family doctor for a referral to a neurologist to examine the nerves via a procedure called an EMG. Her diagnosis was spot on. The fact that I could have sustained nerve damage during the dislocation was never even mentioned by the so called orthopedic surgeon, who did the follow up examinations in the weeks following my operation to put the joint back into place. In addition to displaying great analytical skills, Angela is a very caring and encouraging physiotherapist when it comes urging a patient to do their exercises so that they can recover as quickly as possible. Over the five months that I was treated by Angela, I was able to recover over 60% of the range of motion of the shoulder joint I has lost from the injury. I have recovered almost all of my range of motion and am gradually regaining the lost strength with the addition of prolotherapy treatments. However these treatments did not begin until after I had been treated by Angela. So I firmly believe that Angela's physiotherapy treatments and exercises set the stage for a much quicker recovery via the prolotherapy treatments. In fact both the orthopedic surgeon I was referred to by my family doctor - at a different hospital from the one where I had my operation following the injury - and the neurosurgeon that I was referred to by the neurologist who did the EMG expressed amazement at the how quickly I have recovered from the injury. They both declared me as fully recovered. Mike Wong

I have been working with Ryan, my massage therapist and I am extremely satisfied with my physio plan and treatment. My back pain is a whole lot better. Such friendly staff and very accommodating as well. I will most definitely recommend them for physio and massages. June

Victoria Lianko

My husband and I have been seeing Fanaye for more than a decade. She’s one of the best Physiotherapist in Toronto. We come out of her clinic eased of all our aches and pain. She’s very knowledgeable and creates an atmosphere of relaxation and relief during her treatments. The care and concern she and Erin has is genuine. They are our chosen caregivers!

Georgina Hutton

The staff at East York Massage and Physiotherapy are incredibly welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. I was referred to this clinic from Sunnybrook Hospital and recieved the best prenatal and postnatal physiotherapy care from Fanaye!

Mehnaaz Bholat

Fanaye is amazing!!! Best physiotherapist. Highly recommend.

Pratik Patel

I've been seeing Angela for Physiotherapy for a few weeks now. She is really thorough, skilled, and knowledgeable. She's definitely put me in a great position to get my lower back working again:)

Mar Tran

I booked with Angela, and they were amazing to work with - Angela was very knowledgeable and explained the exercises and what they were supposed to help with very well. We had lots to talk about while she worked on me, and she was very friendly and made me feel very comfortable during our sessions. Overall, it was an absolutely wonderful physiotherapy experience, and I highly recommend this studio!

Cindy Blazevic

I can’t recommend this studio and its services highly enough. Fanaye was recommended to me when I became frustrated with my lack of progress after spinal decompression surgery and needed physiotherapy. Not only have I regained movement and reduced pain over a month and a half, but I’ve also learned so much about how my body moves and heals. Fanaye, Erin and their team are knowledgable, kind and skilled.

Cherisse Tullett

Angela was fantastic! She was extremely knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions I had about my treatment or explain any of the exercises. I really appreciated the email follow up after appointments, listing the exercises with photos or explanations. Angela has a great sense of humour and that made dealing with my back pain a lot easier. My back is feeling great now but I would definitely return to East York Therapy if I required assistance in the future.

Poly Das

I can’t say enough about the amazing team at this clinic! I have been seeing Fanaye for physiotherapy and Tracy for massage therapy to assist in my recovery from a recent surgery. These two ladies are highly trained professionals that know exactly what they are doing. Each treatment with these ladies have helped me get my range of motion back and feel positive about my recovery. They have both taken the extra time to explain my treatment and provide stretches and exercises to assist in my recovery at home. All this while in the friendliest and most welcoming environment. I would highly recommend this clinic to everyone!

Josh Keller

This is a great physio location. I went in with persistent back pain and saw Angela as my physiotherapist. She is not only friendly and professional but clearly cares a lot about her patients. She often went above and beyond to help me with my issues and I highly recommend her as a physiotherapist.

Barbara Karapostolakis

I have tried out so many different massage places and was never satisfied until now. EY Massage & Physio is a wonderful & warm environment - I feel comfortable & safe going here even during the pandemic as they have top notch protocols in place to protect everyone. Tracy is who I always book with and she is so kind, knowledgable & professional. Highly recommend!

Cathy Hunte

I have been seeing Fanaye for physiotherapy since my lower back problem. She is patient, knowledgeable and knows and does her job very well. She takes the time to demonstrate and explain things in layman’s terms. Besides being very professional, she is personable and cares a lot. She has helped me tremendously and I am so grateful. I am always encouraged by the treatment I receive as my back feels great after my treatment. I highly recommend her. She is simply amazing! Great facility and it’s always clean. Professional and respectful staff.

Tanya Blazevic

I have been going to East York Massage and Physiotherapy Studio for many years now and have been treated by Erin, Tracy and Fanaye. They are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. It's easy to make appointments and they are always quick to respond. I probably wouldn't be able to move my neck without this crew!

Kim Osborne

I am a regular massage client and see Tracey once a month, she is exceptional. They now have a Chiropodist on site who I look forward to meeting for some new orthotics.

J Jordan

After a bicycle accident and major reconstructive surgery of my arm the surgeon stated at the 12 week mark that my range of motion has progressed to where most people get to in 12 months! A heartfelt thank you to my physiotherapist Fanaye Whyte as I owe much of my incredible recovery to her dedication and expertise!! Looking forward to continuing my fast paced recovery with her guidance and support, along with some massages from Erin to help loosen me up along the way!

Nashebes

I came to Fanaye in pain and not able to move without discomfort. After seeing her for a few months, I've gotten my range of movement back and walk every single day. She's changed my life!

Joni Goss

Fanaye treated me for my arthritic knees, bursitis in my hip and plantar fasciitis. Basically, I was falling apart. I feel so much better after treatments and exercise plan. Highly recommend.
