Core Health is a comprehensive health centre, as per its name. It offers massage - which is what I'll be reviewing - acupuncture, chiropractic and naturopathic services.
Like I do with my hairstylists, I hop around to different massage therapists, because they never do quite what I want, even if I give them guidance. Well, I can say I'll be settled for a while.
Not only is the location convenient (Scotia Centre), they are available for lunchtime appointments.
My therapist was Amber K. She was very professional, and asked me what I wanted to be worked on, and what issues, or injuries I had.
I told her I have issues with my back from sitting at my desk, as well as my feet from excercise. Not only did she get directly to where was hurting me, and loosened it up, she also provided suggestions on how to avoid more pain, and reasons why I could be in pain based on my description of how it hurt.
At first she didn't talk much, but the more I spoke, the more she engaged me - which is how I feel it should be. If I talk -you talk, if I don't -you don't.
Prices are $80 per hour flat fee, which is slightly below standard fees downtown. -

This is a small, no frills massage/health clinic. I go to Amber for massage. I don't go for relaxation but rather pay her to get deep in to my knots until I want to puke or my limbs turn numb. Yes, I ask for this on purpose, and yes, I feel like I've had the crap beaten out of me the next day. However, a couple days later, I always feel amazing. Amber is very professional and knowledgable therapist, one of the best I've visited ( and I've tried out a lot) They also offer acupuncture and have a naturopath on site. Can't wait for my next session.
