Reviews of Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS Clinic (Psychologist)

Andrea Millman

The staff are all so friendly and welcoming. I have had nothing but positive experiences at Penticton Physio & IMS and am so glad I decided to try IMS! IMS has been really helpful for me in regaining strength and mobility after injuries.

Eva Gavaris

I had persistent pain in my right shoulder and was so impressed by how much the IMS treatment helped, and so quickly! Along with exercises and stretches, I have made a complete recovery and the pain hasn’t returned for a couple months, now. Chris is very professional and takes the time to explain everything clearly. He is very conscientious of your comfort throughout the procedure.

Lynne James

I came to see Chris for lower back pain and after a few months of physio and IMS my back feels better than it has in 5 years at least. When I started with treatment I was having difficulty even walking, and now I'm back lifting weights, doing yoga and running. Fantastic clinic! Very friendly and professional.

Tammy Kelso

Always amazing services

Debra A

Best therapists in the Okanagan

Katie Markin

IMS has been extremely effective in relaxing my tight muscles, improving mobility and reducing pain. I am able to see significant improvements in my plantar fasciitis after every visit. Chris uses IMS as needed and supplements it with other exercises with the aim to improve performance long term. I highly recommend this clinic to people who are looking for something new to try and relieve their pain as I tried multiple treatments before finding this clinic, and none were able to give me the results that I saw here.

Jamie

Highly recommend this clinic in Penticton. Chris and his vast team of trained professionals make you feel welcomed and taken care of with every service offered here. They have a very up to date/modern clinic and easy booking system that allows for a stress free experience with making appointments! As a registered Nurse, I experience a lot of back issues and have been going to this clinic since they’ve opened their doors. They listen to my concerns and help me tailor treatments around my goals and what I need to be successful in my lifestyle! If you are looking for someone to help you reach your health/fitness goals, this is defiantly a place you need to check out!

Allison Lombard

I’ve always struggled with multiple injuries to my leg and have never been able to achieve my weight loss and fitness goals because of it. Since I’ve started my services with Chris I have seen a noticeable improvement! Chris is professional yet personable and friendly at the same time ! Highly highly recommend!!

Kara Welch

I injured my back and was suffering from debilitating spasms and felt pretty hopeless. I decided to book with Chris because of the amazing reviews I read online about him and his clinic. I am so happy I did!!! I was worried I wouldn't be able to work for a long time but through intramuscular stimulation (IMS) treatments I was able to return quickly. I wish I would have discovered IMS years ago! Chris is very professional and knowledgeable. Additionally, he takes the time to get to know his patients and I've never feel rushed during an appointment. I would recommend Chris to anyone who suffers from acute or chronic pain. After he abolished my acute back spasms, he helped me with chronic pain I've had in my forearms for years. I haven't felt this well and pain free in years. Lastly, his new clinic is beautiful, spacious, and has ample parking, I suggest checking it out. Thank you Chris!!!!!

Clint Hoebee

Nothing beats professional help. I had been dealing with a lower back injury for a couple of years, mostly on my own. My healing was stagnant, my pain daily, and I was at a loss of what to do next to continue my healing. I decided I needed to talk to a Physiotherapist. I was easily able to make an appointment to see Chris through the website. My first visit was a thorough assessment where he was quickly able to pinpoint the areas I needed work on. We developed a game plan based on my goals and gave me suggestions on modifying my body mechanics at work and home. After initiating some of the tips Chris gave me, my lower back pain was reduced by 80%! Something I can easily do any time of the day and during any activity. The strength and conditioning exercises I was given are challenging yet easily doable at home or in the gym. I count this as a huge success in my pain and injury journey. It was so refreshing to have my pain reduced, and my confidence boosted as a result of seeing such positive changes in such a short time. The clinic is in a great central location, bright, clean and lots of parking. The staff that I have interacted with have been nothing short of professional and cheerful. If you are needing guidance and help in your own personal journey of injury/pain or wanting to improve your physical fitness, this is a great place to start!

I'd heard good things about IMS so I thought I'd give it a go. It's BRILLIANT for pain relief. But there's so many services available at the same place that I tried as many as possible! All the staff are very caring and incredibly knowledgeable about their areas of expertise. When I started attending sessions, I could barely walk. I was able to bounce around between the services (physio, IMS, massage), depending on how strong I was and the state of my injury at the time. The practitioners all knew about what was going on with me, so I didn't need to re-explain my status every time I went to see someone. I was also really touched that the clinic kept in contact to make sure I was OK during lockdown. I'd recommend this place to anyone with pain and mobility issues. And I'll return whenever I'm in town.

Heather Benton

great people

jackie smart

Everytime I have any kind of pain I can rely on Penticton physio to help me. IMS needling has helped me so much when doctors and chiropractors could not

Carl Bayard

Chris is a gentleman and true professional. I have suffered from sciatica for years. I've tried many different approaches. I was immediately impressed with his diagnosis process and treatment. He is top notch.

Sondra Richardson - Celebrant

I was referred to Lisa Singleton at Penticton Physiotherapy by another professional. After many years of trying various therapies with limited success, Lisa took the time to carefully assess my body and the structural issues that have attributed to chronic pain for many years. She has addressed each issue with care and truly listened to what problems were occurring as we navigated both my pain and vast improvements together. I am happy to report that I am returning to a lifestyle that I thought I’d never experience again and am stronger and more mobile than ever before. By the way, her expertise, professionalism, compassion, and wonderful sense of humour is the big bow on top of feeling better!! Thanks Lisa for all your magic!! ❤️

Rylea Helena

I’ve been with Jessica for close to 6 years now and she has been a genuine saving grace for my condition. She’s followed me from pre op to post op of my spinal fusions. She has provided me with tremendous care and support when I needed it the most and has helped me literally gain my life back. I couldn’t of asked for a better physiotherapist to be apart of my care team. My surgeon from Vancouver Children’s is also eternally grateful for the care I receive from her as care/experience with major spinal fusions is slim to none in Penticton! Front desk is also always super pleasant to deal with!

Jon Gabbai

Fantastic clinic, really knowledgeable staff and great feel. Really evident that the staff care about the patients and that they get the job done well! Definitely my go to for rehab in penticton, especially like Chris but again, seems like everyone I've dealt with there is great.

Chris Phillips

I would fully recommend Penticton Physiotherapy, the staff is knowledgeable, personable, and accommodating. I've had success with IMS and will be back for the next sports injury.

Carolyn Johnson

Best physio and IMS in Penticton! I've had chronic back pain for years and was ecstatic to see positive results with my first IMS treatment! Chris does amazing work!

Mike Hubbard

Friendly staff and very knowledgeable physiotherapists. I had great results with the combination of physio and IMS. I will go back when in need of physio again. Highly recommended.

Betti White

Highly recommend!

Kathy P

Chris and the team at Penticton Physiotherapy and IMS Clinic will tackle all your body's needs - not only for PT but also massage and personal physical training - and believe me - when you deal with chronic pain like I do, treating the whole person is key - I highly recommend this organization - knowledgeable and VERY wonderful to work with!

Scott Buchanan

These guys are the best It all started out with an emergency back pain issue. I made one call to penticton physio and within 10 minutes they called me back to let me know that an RMT would be coming in on his day off to help me. That my first encounter with Konrad and the gang. The experience they provided thar first day has gotten better and better with every visit. Highly professional and incredibly personal, this is the best place of its kind in penticton. If I wasn't leaving town I would be a client for life.

Marian Roche

I hurt my low back at work and went for a course of physio, was really struggling at the time but had a really good outcome with my treatments. My therapist did a lot of manual therapy and IMS and gave me home exercises, now I'm fully recovered and back at work. Would recommend if you have pain or an injury!

Herman Steuernagel

I can't recommend Penticton Physiotherapy enough. Everyone at the clinic is wonderful, friendly and helpful. I have been working with both Chris and Lauren for issues I had been having while running. Through both treatments and exercises to do between visits, they've helped me with pain I was having and strengthen areas that were slowing me down, and I have seen improvements after several visits!

Katie Martin

Lisa Singleton is amazing - She is personable, knowledgeable and always goes above and beyond to help in the best way that she can. Her treatments have made such a positive impact on my life I would go to her weekly if I could! Highly recommended!

martin longmore

Chris and his team are amazing, professional & personal. I have had a bulging disc for 9 months and spent a lot of money & time getting treatment, after one visit with Chris I finally have had no pain whatsoever. I even hiked Giants Head Mountain 6 days later. Chris is awesome and I will 100% recommend Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS Clinic to everyone & anyone. Great job..Thank you for your help.

Lyndsay de Jonge

Chris has added a Personal Trainer to his services he offers. I have been going to Obi the trainer since he started in October. Because I have arthritis I believe move it or lose it. So Obi has been helpful in getting my fitness level up. I am noticing difference in my whole being. I recommend Obi he's understanding of my limits, he's patience and we do have a lot of laughter in our sessions. Thank you Chris and staff and Especially Obi !

Kat C

Best place for physio and massage. Big thanks to Chris and his amazing staff!

Jamie Pond

Chris, Lauren and everyone there is superb and so knowledgeable. (Hopefully I don't need to) But I will definitely be back to see them if I need any work done.

Philip Gushulak

I highly recommend the services of Chris and his staff. Very helpful and professional. Convenient and clean new facilities. Chris was great to work with, he helped me essentially erase twenty years of misuse and injury in just three sessions. I was introduced to IMS and am very pleased with the results. Thanks for everything, hope to not see you again.

Rochelle Vaisanen

We travelled to Penticton for the ITU Multisport World Championship event in August. Both my partner and I had running injuries, and booked an appointment with Chris prior to arriving. Chris was very knowledgable, and the treatment he provided allowed us both to race our events. I would highly recommend Chris for any physiotherapy needs.

Yannick Janssens

Professional and efficient. Went in for some back pain caused by a fall at work a few years ago. Got IMS done and was given a variety of stretches and exercises to do. Less than 2 months later I'm 100% pain free!

Patti Dunbar

Rarely do I post or praise in public but I feel so strongly about the people and the service I have received at the Penticton Physiotherapy Clinic. Each visit has been revealing and hugely helpful. Small exercises have proven to be beneficial to aches and pains as well as mobility. I am so pleased with the progress and what I have learned from Lauren Walker. She has made what I thought were aging issues become body issues that can be worked on and improved. I feel very fortunate to have the privilege of working with Lauren and feel excited about future work.

Ethan Lannon

Chris and his knowledgeable staff have such a positive help for myself and girlfriend. Always able to squeeze us in for a treatment when something flares up and have helped us recover issues that have been bugging us for years. I would recommend IMS to anyone that is recovering and looking to try something different to help. And if so this is the place you want to go!

Adam James

I'm very grateful to the person who recommended Chris to me. I'm returning to running after many years off and a recent ankle surgery. Chris has helped me not just reduce the discomfort, but actually run pain free for the first time in years. I would highly recommend seeing Chris if you are living with any kind of joint or muscle pain.

Lacie Roberge

Super friendly Staff, Chris is very easy to talk to. Tore my hamstring on mother's day and was recommended by a friend to go see Chris. Super happy that I was able to get in within a week to start treatment. Never before had experienced IMS but it definitely had quite the impact on my hamstring and was back playing baseball within 9 weeks. Thanks again, will recommend this place to everyone who has an injury or sore after sports, go get some IMS done, will be like it never happened.

Scott Naylor

Awesome physio clinic with amazing staff.

Jason Wood

Great people who really know what they're doing

Caithy Boyle

All the therapists are amazing at what they do and very professional. All staff are ready with a smile, and friendly hello.

Laura Smyth

I had pain and stiffness in my hip after doing a 10k race. A few weeks later the pain hadn't gone away. I had an assessment with Chris and he recommended IMS - I had almost immediate relief! He was extremely professional and helpful. Very happy to recommend his services.

Natalie Macdonald

Everyone at Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS clinic truly care about getting you back to health from injury. I've worked with Lauren closely in order to rehabilitate my knee back to health. She puts so much energy into all of her clients and she truly wants to see you thrive. She is incredibly knowledgeable and likes to educate her clients rather than just tell them what is wrong. I would recommend Lauren and the Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS clinic time and time again.

pancake81

I am fairly new to town and was requiring some physio therapy treatment. I asked many professionals who they recommended and they all put Chris’s name forward. After my initial visit I could see why. Chris takes the time to really get you know you and finding what the root cause of your pain is. He is very professional and thorough with his treatments. I have never felt rushed through an appointment, which is appreciated. The goal at Penticton Physio Therapy is to get you better and living healthy. Chris routinely re-examines his patients to evolve your treatment and expediate your healing process; not to keep you returning unnecessarily. On top of all this he is a pleasure to talk with and genuinely cares for his patients.

Rebecca Stevens

I'm from Ontario, but was in B.C. for the month of July - I was a bit worried needing to do physio (after breaking my arm) in an unfamiliar city, but Chris and his team were extremely accommodating and welcoming. My range of motion and strength have improved far beyond where I thought they'd be by now - I am very happy with my physio experience here, and am sad to leave this clinic as I head back to Ontario.

Blair Schulz

A fantastic team with a ton of knowledge that acts very professionally. Thanks Chris!

Meghan Harms

IMS gave me my quality of life back after suffering from an injury for months. Would recommend to anyone.

Greg Alexander

I highly recommend Chris and his team. As a car accident victim I have been to many clinics and they definitely stack up with the best. Quality facility, great location, expert staff, easy online booking (with reminders)... simply the best integrated wellness center Penticton has to offer

Huguette Ruest

I have been going to Chris for IMS for over a year now, and I very impressed with the results I get each and every time I have a treatment. I am not new to IMS treatments.... When I moved to penticton a year ago, I feared that I would have a hard time finding someone to continue my treatments. I must say that I am so happy to have found Chris, his method is by far the best !! Thank you Chris for your awesome work.

Lorna Nicholson

This is a fabulous clinic! Chris is wonderful with my IMS treatment, and gets me ready for running half marathons. I have some issues with tight muscles which pull and cause pain, but he understands what I need done, and is very helpful and caring with his approach. I can successfully run pain free because of his treatment. Thanks!!!

Nicolla Kaumeyer

I've been to many physiotherapy clinics and this is a special one. Chris and his team instantly make you feel at home and you know you're in good hands with their professional approach, expertise and varied services. I have no hesitation in recommending Penticton Physiotherapy and IMS Clinic!

Jay Strake

When someone tells you they can rid you of leg pain you've had at night for two years, you obviously take that claim with a grain of salt! Well Catherine definitely knows her stuff because after just one treatment, I've had my first pain free night in years!!!!!!! Now, I'm a believer!

Jamie Rae

I had left another physio for lack of progress and attention to a back injury. Since going to penticton physio, I am back to functional. The staffs attention to detail was helpful and produced great results. Friendly and supportive. The online booking feature and reminder system makes it easy to get in.

Shawnda Henderson

Chris and Vicki have been super helpful, Attentive, and thorough with helping our son Alec age14- Freestyle Skier. I would highly recommend them to anyone searching for Physio

Shayne Bodnarchuk

Chris is amazing does amazing stuff for back pain!!

Jollean Evans

I was having trouble with hip and lower back pain for years. Chris evaluated my condition and recommended IMS. The result was amazing and I did experience immediate results. I did continue to go to a few sessions as this has been years of pain and wasn’t going to go away from one session. I still go for maintenance every few months. Chris takes the time to explain everything he is doing and suggests methods you can do to help your recovery at home. Chris helps you feel at ease and is very professional. I would highly recommend Chris

nicki lock

I have been a client with Lisa Singleton for a few years now and more recently with her at Penticton Physio and IMS Clinic. My personal experience is from a variety of different areas and these are always addressed expertly and thoroughly. Lisa is extremely adept at assessing individual needs and tailoring a specialized treatment program that shows results. She is excellent at identifying my main areas of concern (this can be a moving target at times!) and implenting appropriate therapies as needed so that I regain function/ability. She has an organized approach and an overall wealth of knowledge that leads to results. She encourages client feedback with an emphasis on sustainable results and longer term goals. She is also very realistic with treatment outcomes and does not hesitate to suggest other therapy options to support those needs. The Clinic is well equipped and has the added benefit of private treatment rooms that ensure patient privacy and confidentiality. The staff are very friendly and the ability to book appointments online offers ease and flexibility for clients. This makes for a great environment to maintain health!

Bonnie Fulton

Chris is very professional, personable and skilled. The IMS treatments have been very successful and the exercises he recommended are something I can continue to use which will strengthen and help continue to ease the concerns I had.

Charlotte Welter

Penticton Physiotherapy and IMS Clinic has helped my immensely. I spent an extended time in Penticton Hospital as a result of 2 very serious staph infections pressing on my spine and with assistance from the hospital physiotherapist I learned to walk and was released with a wheel chair, walker, cane, bath board and arm for my bed. I was participating in Physio as an outpatient in the hospital and that ended. I learned about Penticton Physio and started with them shortly after being released from hospital. Thanks to the amazing physiotherapists, massage therapists and IMS I am now able to walk unassisted. They are an impressive group of people who focus on believing in people and their ability to succeed. Without a doubt I would recommend Penticton Physio to anyone who needs physical help!

Beckie B

Chris is an amazing registered physiotherapist! He's very kind, and in tune with patients and their progress. (I'm afraid of needles! I successfully receive ims without anxiety because of his attentiveness. If something doesn't feel even slightly right, he stops immediately!) The whole crew is pleasant and always seem bright and cheerful.

Derek Ballarin

Penticton Physio is a life saver! I have had several injuries over the years and I’m only a few short sessions I am back to 100% I highly recommend.

Brigitte Somero

I have been seeing Chris for a couple of years. I have had nothing but great success with my treatments. Chris is very professional and centers in on what causes me discomfort. I recommend the Penticton Physio & IMS Clinic for anyone needing help..

Kelsey C

I have been treated by multiple of their staff and have had a great experience each time. The clinic is well run, clean, and inviting. All staff are friendly and personable. Lisa is a knowledgable PT... her needling has helped me recover from a previous injury. And Lauren is brilliant and a fantastic MT and AT. I have sent many friends and family here and will continue to do so!

Megan Gorman

Great staff

I was involved in a work place incident in July that left me multiple fractures and sore knees. Chris started on a plan to get me back in shape by first focusing on my knees as I could not start physio on my shoulder as the fracture did not heal yet. It was simple exercises to focus on the muscles that were tight and not releasing. Then in September I got the go ahead from the Orthopedic doctor that was taking care of me to start physio on my shoulder. We started simple movements to see how high I can move my arm laterally and up in front. Let me say how much pain my shoulder was giving since I was not moving it for so long and how restricted my movements were. Now that we started IMS, first on my knees and then onto my shoulder, there is a huge difference I feel: my knees move a lot better and the tight pains on the side of my knees are almost gone. We are doing IMS now on my shoulder and the results are just amazing: less pain and better lateral and upfront movements with my arm. When I look back when I was doing the exercises, it was like getting my muscles to somewhat relax before starting IMS. Chris is extremely professional and he makes sure you're comfortable while doing IMS. We're still trucking along with treatments and I look forward to soon getting rid of the pain in my shoulder and knees. Thanks.

Samantha Wright

I first went to Penticton Physiotherapy for help with my mobility, but I didn’t realize the impact they would have on other aspects of my health. I was concerned about strength and range of motion, so I was leaving squats out of my workouts. I was nervous to look for support and it was intimidating at first because I didn’t know much about Physiotherapy or how it could apply to me. Chris was great and helped me feel comfortable! Since my first assessment, we’ve continually added and adjusted my therapy plan. I’ve never felt this good. I get IMS at the clinic which works better than I could even imagine. I used to have to go to massage therapy for tight muscles and back pain but get immediate and longer lasting effect from IMS. I wish I had known about it sooner. I get IMS on my jaw and temple to help reduce headaches and migraines. I work with Lauren (RMT/Athletic Therapy) to work on muscle strength and firing. I thought I was going in to physiotherapy for a few lessons on squatting but instead improved my functional mobility and improved my quality of life. Working in the health care field I’m embarrassed I wasn’t taking care of my body the way I do now. I’ve been going to for more than a year now. The team is so great. I refer all my coworkers and friends here. I recommend you go see them because I’m sure they can help you be the even better, healthier, and happier version of yourself.

Liz Weaver

Best staff ever!

Jane N

Tried 2 other physiotherapists before finding Chris. He is the only one who was able to solve my problem. Very professional.

Claus Schlee

I was extremely hesitate for my visit however it turned out to be a very pleasant and successful experience. For anyone who is hesitant don't let that stop you. Chris made me feel very comfortable. He took time to explain things to me in great length and I was impressed on how knowledgeable he was. Not only was he hands on but he has also empower me with tools and exercise that is helping me with my recovery. Thank you Chris for helping me take charge in my recovery and experiencing a more pain free life. This SENIOR would recommend you in a heart beat.

Matt Keyes

I recently received treatment with Chris Stokes for a very persistent injury. I was treated with IMS and ultrasound plus given exercises to strengthen the injured area. I found Chris to be highly knowledgable, personable, and attentive to my needs and recovery. His office staff are also the most caring, friendly, and kind people I have ever met at any health clinic. I highly recommend Chris and his team at Penticton Physiotherapy and IMS Clinic.

Sheri Almond

Chris has been fantastic in helping me to get rid of some hip and back pain, and be able to be back out running and pain free. Always do their best to get you in as soon as possible and when there I find Chris to be very professional and lots of great advice on exercises to do at home. First time I have tried dry needling and it has worked really well for me. Highly recommend Penticton Physiotherapy and will use them again.

Jacinda Pownall

Lisa Singleton has been treating me for almost a year. She uses a variety of methods and works within my comfort levels to extend my range of motion and reduce my pain; the difference in my quality of life has been amazing. Lisa always gives me home exercises to work on and tips on products that could help my condition. She has become that little voice in my head telling me to stretch and watch my posture! Lol! Thank you Lisa, I look forward to our next visit.

Kathy Winstanley

After having no luck with with IMS treatments at other clinics i am happy to have found Penticton Physiotherapy. I got instant relief from the pain i was having. The office is a welcoming and friendly environment and the staff members are very friendly, professional amd knowledgeable.

Chelsea Chadwick

Chris is amazing! I’ve had chronic shoulder and back issues and IMS seems to always do the trick! Would have sought treatment long ago had I known how effective it is. Very professional and easy going, always enjoy coming in for my appointment!

Brian Manor

Highly recommend the Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS Clinic. My experience was great. Even before I arrived for my first visit the reception staff were super friendly, very helpful and really displayed excellent customer service. Chris was amazing in helping me recover from a sports related shoulder injury. He introduced me to IMS and it worked absolute wonders. My treatments with Chris helped relieve pain and drastically improved my range of motion. I'm happy to say that Chris helped me recover fully and I'm now and back to working out and playing hockey again. Thanks Chris

Judy Destromp

Great team that are aware of clients needs. Pleasant, excellent with time management. Never have to wait. Friendly, knowledgeable and a great place to achieve your health goals.

Tamsyn Hendricks

Really great and effective treatment of my issue(s). Clean and professional environment with clear communication. I see Lisa for IMS and find it wildly effective. She is an amazing physiotherapist!

Tyler Kovacsik

Great place with friendly staff. Chris is very knowledgeable and helped me with multiple issues involving both IMS and physiotherapy. I appreciate that he is conscious of your recovery and tries multiple therapies to heal you. Great job.

Brittney Donofrio

Chris is absolutely amazing! Very professional and makes you feel comfortable and relaxed in his office. He is the only physiotherapist that I will ever see again! Thanks so much for healing me Chris :)

Xavier Cedeno

I was experiencing a great deal of pain and discomfort after a fall. Chris Stoke's IMS treatment has been an absolute success. I can't say enough good things about it. Having never had this kind of treatment, I did not know what to expect. I experience results after my first treatment, in only a few weeks, I went from being in a great deal of pain to being able to sit in my classes without any discomfort whatsoever. I am extremely pleased and would most definitely recommend Penticton Physiotherapy and IMS Clinic to anyone. Thanks so much Chris!

E. Moore

Modern clinic designed for the 21st century (online booking, detailed website). Having suffered a concussion, it has been very helpful to have a concussion management specialist such as Jessica Slivka available to help with recovery.

chris sayles

For years I have suffered from the occasional lower back spasm that renders me in severe pain, and unable to freely move due to muscles tightening. This time I decided to try IMS treatment. (First time for me) I was amazed at how quickly I progressed, and after only 3 treatments my condition is back to nearly 100%. Very professional service, never rushed, and not painful at all. Chris gave me advice and exercises in order to strengthen myself to prevent this from occurring again.

Hark 07

Lauren, Chris, and the rest of the staff make coming into their office a pleasure. Lauren is a very knowledgeable RMT and goes above and beyond to ensure the highest quality of care. I would recommend Penticton Physiotherapy without reservation.

Kirsten Odian

My son and I have relied on both Jessica and Lisa for our Physio needs and we are always impressed by their knowledge, care and professionalism. The staff at this clinic are all wonderful and happy which helps make it feel like a very positive healing environment.

Patrick Edwards

I started seeing Chris a year ago for some long standing issues with neck and shoulder pain and tightness. Since starting IMS and the stretching exercise recommended by Chris my pain has improved significantly. The results from the IMS were immediate. I would highly recommend Chris to others.

Nadine Straza

Chris is amazing. Front desk staff are very friendly and Kayla is the best RMT I have ever been too!

Colleena Schlee

I have learned to live with a considerable amount of pain in my neck and shoulder area for years, from a terrible swimming accident. No matter what I did I never found relief from the pain. Then I was blessed to be introduced to Lisa Singleton. My first time seeing her she asked me to do a few small things and bingo she was manipulating areas in my neck that I never knew was triggering my pain and discomfort. I was able to move my neck more than I ever could in a long time. Lisa also took time to explain that I could get even more relief with some needling. I have never had IMS before but Lisa made me feel extremely comfortable with it. Lisa is extremely knowledgeable, professional and you can feel her passion for her trade with her words and techniques. For the first time in years, I felt relief that brought me to tears. I walk out of my appointment lighter and more pain-free than I ever thought possible. I want to scream it from the rooftop. Thank you so much and I want to recommend you to everyone who needs to feel free from pain. Thank you, Lisa, for what you do and for helping me live a more active pain-free life. I would recommend everyone to Lisa Singleton in a heartbeat. Also, I would recommend the Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS Clinic to anyone who wants to live a more pain-free life. Chris Stokes and his team of Physiotherapists, Kinesiologist, and Registered Massage therapists operated at a high standard. All of them enjoy what they do and they strive to give the highest level of client satisfaction. I also appreciate the cleanliness of the clinic and the high standard they operate. I live with a senior and appreciate the COVID19 promotion they take. Thank you Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS Clinic for all you do.

Michael & Penny Johnston

As a result of a near fatal motor vehicle accident my husband and I have been clients at Penticton Physio for the past three years. During this time of uncertainty in the world I feel compelled to share my experience with all who are involved in the day to day running of this Clinic. Upon my arrival for my appointment I am always welcomed and treated with respect and kindness. Over the last two years we have all had to adhere to some strict protocols that have disrupted all of our lives on a daily basis. I recognize that this is not only difficult for clients but also compromises the health care workers who are always there for us. I would , of course, prefer not to have to wear a mask at every treatment or be asked Covid related questions. But, having said that, at no time have I ever felt imposed upon by any one at this Clinic. They have all been very concerned about their clients welfare and are doing all that they can to make sure that we all maintain our health and safety. I am physically compromised and just want you all to know that I appreciate all that you are doing and continue to do to ensure that I am protected. I truly hope that in the coming year the world as we know will be able to return to something more familiar to all of us. In the meantime, know that you are appreciated and I thank you always for your support.

Donna Hoover

Nick really helped me with my back issues! I had been to many professionals and no one could help me! Nick is gentle, kind and very professional! Thank you so much!

Don Gayton

The staff here are very professional. I dealt with Kinesiologist Ashley Larson after a car accident. She assessed my injury, gave it careful consideration and gave me a very specific set of exercises, which definitely sped up my recovery.

Cally Trimble

I've been a client of Penticton Physiotherpay and IMS clinic for the better part of a year now and am beyond ecstatic with the care I have received. Chris is a hands on physiotherapist that dedicates time to a single client with each visit. He is able to tailor a program specifically for you and knows when recommending a different professional is most beneficial to his clients. Chris helps progress clients through the initial injury phase into recovery and strengthening. I've gained more movement and strength while working with Chris and his team than I've had in years. After multiple frightening injuries I am now back to feeling like my health and fitness will return to where the once were and progress further to where I would like to be. Lauren has been amazing with expanding past physiotherapy and IMS and has helped to progress my health and fitness. I fully believe that Chris and Lauren have helped me return to work stronger and better and allow me to continue to pursue all the outdoor activities the Okanagan has to offer.

Been to Penticton Physio a few times for my shoulder, ankle and knee and had good results. Would recommend if you need a physio in town.

Aleta Isaac

I love this place! The staff are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. I had a sports injury and I had never been to a physiotherapist before. I had also never tried dry needling. I couldn't believe how much it helped and I am now running again! Thank you Chris, Vicky and Ashley for all of your help ????

Kevin Vandervoort

I went for physio and IMS for my lower back pain and my therapist helped me fix my problem and got me back to feeling normal again.

Kevin S

Had some long term ankle problems that my physio helped with, enjoyed my sessions and feeling a lot better.

Lucille Freeman

Best place EVER for complete health and wellness care. Chris (physio), Kayla (massage), and Sherrie (Kinesiologist) worked together and provided me with the skills (exercise/rest ratio) and ability (self-awareness) to return to work after a lengthy medical leave. The support staff, Callen and Colleena, are lovely. Concern, care and kindness hallmarked with professionalism, knowledge and experience...it's a winning combination at Penticton Physiotherapy and IMS Clinic.

Lauralee Majeau

Lisa is the best PT! She is knowledgeable and very professional, providing a comfortable atmosphere in which to perform her treatments. Using IMS and various exercises she has helped to greatly improve my balance, posture and core strength. I am forever grateful to be a client of this amazing clinic! I

Chris has been so helpful for me! My low back was very painful and through Telehealth he has been able to assist me in significantly improving my pain during a time when office visits are not an option Thanks!!!

Cata Polloni

I am so thankful of the friendly, professional and dedicated support I have had in this clinic. As an active person that loves outdoor activities it was a big shock to have a collarbone fracture 2 months ago.. Since I've been attending to the physio sessions with Chris I can notice the improvement in my range of motion while the exercises support my healing process. I needed to find a place like this clinic where I can trust I'll get the proper care to work my way to recover my full strength and be back rock climbing. It's such a relief to have your advices and support. Thanks to all the team that makes this experience to recovery more enjoyable!

Libertas Virtus

I've been a client for a few years (for various injuries, wear and tear, etc.) and I unreservedly recommend Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS Clinic! The care I've received has always been professional and respectful with an emphasis on great communication about the treatment plan for my injury/issue. Excellent results combined with a friendly staff and a bright, clean environment will keep me coming back for any future needs.

Cannot recommend Penticton Physio highly enough. You'd be crazy to go anywhere else. They are proof you don't need to take a hit to your mental or emotional welll being to get better. Needing to go there is depressing, but being there has never been anything but a positive experience. I suffered a long term, possibly permanent injurry in a car accident and have received Physiotherapy, kinesiology, massage, IMS and concussion treatments. Having an injury can be difficult, but every single person I have encountered during my visits, from the people who greet you to the people that work with me and even those who haven't, have been extremely and genuinely friendly, caring, encouraging and professional.

Chris at Penticton Physio really helped my golf swing and aided my golf related pain, thanks again!

Suzanne Gauthier

Not only professtional, super supportive!!! Not knowing after my knee replacement what to expect, I was given tbe utmost attention to my concerns. Huge advancement since my physio. Very thankful and highly recommended.

Lisa O

Everyone at Penticton Physiotherapy & IMS is very welcoming and professional. Their increased safety protocols during COVID are greatly appreciated, I feel very comfortable. Their practitioners are extremely knowledgeable and provide amazing, healing treatments. I have often said “if I could start everyday there, I would”

cassidy McCullough

This clinic is fantastic the staff are personable and professional. They are all so knowledgeable and accommodating. I’ve had pain for years and I’ve had the pleasure of being treated by many of the staff and they are amazing. I recommend them to everyone I know.

Heather Bernard

Chris is awesome!! He is very professional and takes the time to know the patient and the problem. I have seen great results with the treatment I have received, and feel better then I thought possible. I would recommended Chris and the staff at Penticton Physio and IMS clinic to anyone looking for treatment.

Richard Kolter

I do AT physiotherapy and athletic therapy there. I have tried other places, but I have never had the kind of treatment and care that I get there. As soon as you walk in you are treated so nicely by all the staff. I would highly recommend them to anybody looking looking for treatment.

Kynan Kraft

This establishment and it's kind, supporting staff were my saving grace after I had my back injury. Within a matter of weeks under Jessica's care, I went from being bed ridden in excruciating pain, to full mobility and returning to work. She was very professional and personable, bringing humour and fun conversation into every appointment. Without her help, I honestly don't know where I'd be right now (probably still going horizontal and staring up at the the ceiling). I am beyond thankful for my experience here, as I am now feeling ready to take on the world again after having "graduated" from physio. This is the place to go to get your physical self back together again. Once again, a big thank you to Jessica and the rest of the smiling staff. You are the best!

Christine Harbor

Chris is absolutely amazing! I felt calm and relaxed with him right away, and he did a fantastic job explaining everything to me. Since starting IMS, my fibromyalgia has gone from nonstop pain and super tight muscles, to being manageable without any medications and significantly softer muscles! All I can say is I should have seen him sooner! I can't believe how much it has helped!

Dayna Broderick

I just wanted to add to my earlier review. Chris is helping me with my CRPS diagnosis by trying to trick my brain through the use of this mirror box. Not only are Chris(PT), and Kayla(RMT) helping with this crazy thing called CRPS, but also with several other injuries. I can't say enough about how awesome everyone is at this clinic! I couldn't have found a better team to lead me through my ongoing post car accident recovery!

Shirley Aschwanden

I've only ever seen Lauren, but she has been an outstanding help getting me pain free and moving again after major surgery. This last year she's set up 3 different exercise programs for me, as my needs changed, and even went to the pool with me for one session, to help determine what I was really capable of- it was much less than either of us expected at first and I would have been so frustrated if she hadn't revised and adapted both reps and methods specifically to my needs. I highly recommend her, but be prepared to do the homework she may give you for best results!

Tracey Robinson Mortgage Broker

Chris and his team are absolutely fantastic. Very personable, high Covid protocols, great booking system and I love that they remind me. I have now had Physio, IMS and RMT massage and have ongoing bookings. I would highly recommend their services.

Melissa Weiss

Today was my last visit with Chris, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results! This being my first injury I didn’t know what to expect. I am certain without physio and the IMS treatments the results would not have been this great in such a short time. Chris and his staff are professional, knowledgeable and genuinely caring. So on that note, also sad that this was my last appointment. However if anything should arise I will go back. Highly recommend this business on all levels. Cheers, Melissa

Stacy Pletz

I've been seeing Lisa Singleton regularly since last summer and she has been an incredible support, both physically and mentally. Lisa has helped manage my cervicogenic headaches and migraines through IMS and physio, as well as provided emotional support and encouragement to me at a time I was struggling immensely with sinus-related complications. She supported me pre and post surgery and is always able to gauge my tolerance to treatments and offer different options based on my symptoms at each visit. She is warm, encouraging and incredibly skilled and I look forward to ongoing treatments with her. The office staff are always warm and inviting and I highly recommend Penticton Physiotherapy to everyone, you will not be disappointed!

barra kunz

Fantastic experience with Chris and Lauren in preparation for the Marathon. Thank you both so much :)

Will L

I was having some knee problems and went for some physio, which I found very helpful. I would recommend this clinic if you’re in pain or need some help to get you back to your full activity’s level.

Brandi Hansen

Chris Stokes has worked miracles with my wrist injury. When I first started to come and see Chris, my wrist was incredibly fragile and today my wrist has made a remarkable recovery. I highly recommend Chris and his team (Kallen & Colleena who always make me feel comfortable and welcome). I’m so grateful that I made that call and booked an appointment with Chris after he came highly recommended to me.

Kari Hen

IMS has saved me so much pain and frustration. Years of dealing with a connective tissue disorder that I thought the root cause of the pain was solely loose joints and it turns out it was combined with overcompensating tight muscles. Chris has been able to pinpoint the issues and relieve them within the same session. I cannot believe the results and I will continue to go back whenever I have these issues. I have never had results like this with any other treatment, medication or therapy.

Debbie Traill

I went to see Chris as it had become very painful, and almost impossible, to lift my arm even to shoulder height. My doctor originally said arthritis, try advil and voltaren, which did not help. I had never tried physiotherapy or IMS before and a friend recommended Chris. After 8 visits, with IMS 3 times and the exercises Chris gave me, I have my full range of motion back and no pain. This took less than 3 months. I am still waiting for an ultasound and to see a surgeon, but with the unbelievable improvement from seeing Chris, I will more than likely pass on the surgery, just keep up the exercises.
