I have recently started an active rehabilitation with Zahra. I have learned a lot about my body from her and have already seen physical changes. I always look forward to seeing her as I learn something different and feel a difference in my body after each session. I highly recommend if you are not seeing her and are looking to improve your quality of life through movement!

I've been a client for a couple of years now using a wide range of services from kinesiology to physiotherapy and acupuncture. The entire staff including administrators, professionals, and owners are very supportive and accommodating. I recommend this clinic to everyone who wants a good experience. As a hockey player, I am particularly appreciative working with Zara tailoring my kinesiology workouts to enhanced my performance that has been noticed by my entourage. I am feeling stronger and quicker than my peers since starting this program. Also, want to thank the rest of the team Sky, Dr Kindy, and Sara in alleviating my physical injuries and mental stressor. Great clinic and highly recommended!

Zahra Shahvery is an amazing professional in the field of Kinesiology. Throughout my interaction with her, she exhibited a high level of kindness, politeness, and expertise. Zahra's knowledge and understanding of Kinesiology were truly impressive, and she was able to convey complex concepts in a clear and understandable manner. Her approachable nature and willingness to help made the learning experience enjoyable and rewarding. I highly recommend.

During my sessions with Elizabet Bender, I was not only impressed by her expertise in massage therapy but also by her ability to uplift and inspire those around her. Her positive energy is contagious, and I found myself feeling not only physically rejuvenated but also mentally refreshed after each session.

I have had wonderful experiences with Zahrah and Mahi.
I’ve been seeing Zahrah for kinesiology, and I’m really grateful for the care she provides. She is incredibly caring and takes the time to truly listen, which makes every session feel supportive and personalized.

Zahrah is also very flexible and accommodating, which I really appreciate—especially when life gets busy. On top of that, her knowledge and expertise are clear in the way she approaches each session. She explains things in a way that’s easy to understand and always makes me feel comfortable and confident in the process.

I highly recommend Zahrah to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate kinesiologist.

I’ve had a wonderful experience with Mahi as my acupuncturist. She is incredibly kind and makes you feel at ease from the moment you walk in. Her professionalism stands out, and she approaches each session with genuine care and attention.

What truly sets Mahi apart is her knowledge and ability to identify underlying issues that others have missed. She takes the time to understand what’s going on and targets the root of the problem, not just the symptoms.

I highly recommend Mahi to anyone looking for a skilled, thoughtful, and dedicated acupuncturist.

I cannot say enough incredible things about Zahra Shahverdi. From the very first session, Zahra made me feel heard, supported, and completely at ease. Her knowledge of movement and rehabilitation is impressive, but what truly sets her apart is the care and intention she brings to every interaction.

Zahra takes the time to thoroughly assess, explain, and personalize each exercise so it feels manageable and purposeful. She doesn’t just hand you a program — she empowers you to understand your body. Her cues are clear, her approach is thoughtful, and she adapts seamlessly based on how you’re feeling that day.

What I appreciated most is how she balances professionalism with genuine warmth. She celebrates progress (even the small wins!) and creates a safe, encouraging environment that builds both physical strength and confidence.

If you’re looking for a kinesiologist who is knowledgeable, attentive, and truly invested in your long-term health, Zahra is exceptional. I am beyond grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her to anyone wanting to move better and feel stronger.
