The first contact with Meridian Wellness was after I moved to Oak Ridges looking for a Chiropractor and a Massage Therapist to heal my lower back pain. As I stepped inside the clinic, I was immediately impressed by the welcoming and pleasant atmosphere, and the interior design. I met Dr. Keith Tse, Chiropractic Doctor, and Troy Miller, Massage Therapist, and after I described the symptoms, Dr. Tse recommended a few sessions with Low Intensity Laser Therapy and a number of stretching exercises. Troy also suggested Massage Therapy and Reiki. After the first three sessions of alternating Laser Therapy with different techniques of Massage and Reiki , the pain decreased considerable and after two months the pain was gone. Dr. Tse and Troy were very confident about the effectiveness of the treatments and in the end they were right to be so.

A few months later, I went to the emergency room with a tremendous pain in my neck, shoulder, and arm. Due to this I was unable to move my head, to feel my fingers, to sleep, to do my job, to drive or do any other effort. The CT diagnosed me with large cervical disc herniation and the neurosurgeon said that next time when I will have the same symptoms, a surgery to replace the damaged disc should be considered.

I came into Meridian Wellness again to ask for help from Dr. Tse and Troy, and, once again, they showed their professionalism and knowledge in what they do. After two weeks of intensive (every day) Laser Therapy alternated with Massage techniques and Reiki, I was able to drive, to stop taking the painkillers and the numbness in my fingers and arm subsided. After three weeks of therapies, I was able to restart my job and to sleep better. I continued the therapies, but I progressively began decreasing the number of sessions and, after three months I was 100% better. The pain was gone, I had full function of my neck, shoulder and arm and I could return to my normal lifestyle again. Now, I go once a month to do one laser therapy and one massage session to maintain my well being, and I hope that by doing this I can delay or even eliminate completely a risky surgery.

Anyone who is in any kind of pain, strain or spasm, or even if you only want to relax, or to improve your energetic flow in your body, I highly recommend meeting these two wonderful people from Meridian Wellness. They will know how to give you your smile back!!

I had tried what I felt was everything to relieve my shoulder, back and neck pain: physio, chiropractor, massage, pain ointments, hot/​cold therapies and even electronic massage machines at home. By the time I came to Dr. Keith I was desperate. He used acupuncture and laser to relieve the muscle pain. Just as importantly, he showed me an exercise to do at home. The exercises also helped with the pain and changed my posture…which in turn has changed my life!

I want to thank you, Dr. Misa and everyone at Meridian Wellness. Everyone there is truly incredible and I brag about you guys to everyone. From the first day I met Dr. Misa to today she has been a breathe of fresh air. She listened to us, understood us and delivered on every promise. We can truly say that because of Dr. Misa’s expertise, Zeff and I have started a family.

Words can never truly express our gratitude. All we can say is thank you from the bottom of our hearts….all 3 of us!

Thanks

I first came to Meridian Wellness with a shoulder injury. My arm movement was quite restricted and painful. Troy attentively listened and recorded my concerns. He worked gently and diligently to reduce the pain and provide more movement. I couldn’t believe the difference from before my treatment to after. I have continued with monthly appointments with Troy and have found great relief not only in my shoulder but in all areas of my back, shoulders and neck where I receive treatment. I’m as close to being physically stress free as I can be!!

Troy has a solid knowledge of the human anatomy and can apply this knowledge through his hands to provide relief from areas causing discomfort or pain. Troy knows exactly where each and every muscle is located and how much pressure, or not, to apply for release of tension. I will be continuing my monthly visits with Troy. I feel that massage therapy is a great benefit to my daily activities and physical goals. Essentially, I don’t feel my age!

I highly recommend Troy to anyone requiring help in any physical mobility issues or just for the pleasure of full body relaxation. He is truly an expert and an asset to his profession.

Thank you Troy.

I arrived here about 1 ½ months ago with a worried look on my face. I am sure Dr. Tse felt I was about to pass out from my concerns asking question after question and drilling him on his knowledge of the subject. As he is a very well-​mannered and calm person, he politely comforted me in making me understand the commonality of my problem and the ease of correcting it. So there was a solution to my back pain. GREAT!!!

I was excited because I felt I was being treated like a big time sports athlete as Dr. Tse mentioned the laser treatment I was about to undertake for the next several weeks was used on the Toronto Maple Leafs and Raptors players. So I went out and told all my friends of which those that expressed interest I gave out Dr. Tse’s contact info.

In the end 15 treatments later I feel that this was a great success and I am very pleased with the results as my back issue feels just about normal again, which coming from a person with a short fuse on worrying about things is a very good thing. Thanks for all your help and I hope we don’t have to meet on the same circumstances again!

A co-​worker told me about laser therapy and, after a few weeks of putting it off, I finally made an appointment to see Dr. Tse. The rest is history.

My treatments took longer than the norm but I would not give up. I could feel the improvement. I had suffered for 6 years trying chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture, physio therapy and prescription drugs. I had a pinched sciatic nerve and the CT scan of my spine showed facet joint osteoarthrosis, concentric disc bulging and osteophyte formation. Surgery was recommended but I opted to deal with the pain at that time.

Laser therapy and regular core stability exercises recommended by Dr. Tse have made a world of difference. I would definitely recommend laser therapy and Dr. Tse. You have nothing to lose but the pain.

I have been suffering with Sciatic Nerve problems for about two years. I went to other clinics for treatments and nothing really works as well as the Low Level Laser at Meridian Wellness. I would recommend Low Level Laser to anyone with any kind of back problems or sciatic nerve problems. It takes a lot less healing time and a lot less visits for healing to work. I was amazed at the outcome and benefits of getting back on your feet, for my busy lifestyle. Thank you and God bless you and I give thanks to God for wisdom.
