Testimonials
“After trying many other physiotherapists, and having no luck recovering, I was getting frustrated. I was recommended to Royal City Physio for my knee and back problems after being in two car accidents.
Karen has done an amazing job helping me recover. Her exercises are efficient and effective. She takes the time to get to know her patients and shows them exercises that they can incorporate in their lives easily. Staff is very friendly and accommodating to my work and school schedule. Highly recommended.”

"If you need physiotherapy, Royal City Physio is the place to go!"
“If you need physiotherapy, Royal City Physio is the place to go. All the staff are very professional, and you feel welcomed from the minute you walk in the door.
I owe a debt of gratitude to my MPT Jayme Gordon who has been an integral part of my rehabilitation after my recent total knee replacement. Jayme is very knowledgeable, and I am amazed at my progress after only 5 weeks of seeing her! I would highly recommend Royal City Physio.”
