My sister in law recommended to see Dr. Thompson while I am visiting in Halifax. Pleasant experience overall, friendly staff! And of course very knowledgeable Dr. Thompson. Thank you, team!

Gillian Scott is an incredibly skilled and extremely professional massage therapist. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for an experienced and respectful massage therapist. Thank you to Gillian and the entire Active Approach team!

Dr. Lauren is amazing! The only downside is since she has come back from maternity leave the office doesn’t allow you to book her online.

Dr. Liam Johnston is highly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. His assessment was thorough and careful, and he demonstrated strong expertise and skill in his field. The treatment was effective, and I felt well cared for throughout the session. I appreciate his thoughtful approach and look forward to continuing treatment with him.

Amazing appointment. After weeks of chronic lower back pain, Dr. Thompson diagnosed and treated my injury. Now I have confidence and a pathway to recovery!

I have been seeing Dr. Jessica Fitzpatrick over the past several years. I've gone in to see her and came out feeling amazing. Dr. Fitzpatrick is knowledgeable, thorough and extremely invested in her patients and their well-being. I would give her additional stars if I could. Definitely worth a visit, even if you are unsure of what ails you.

I have been to Active Approach for many ailments in the last 6-7 years. Dr Fitzpatrick is amazing and is always able to get me back to feeling my best. She’s honest and direct about care, but in the most friendly manner

I was extremely impressed with Active Approach Health & Wellness Centre. The staff and surroundings were warm and welcoming. I had been referred to Gillian Stone and informed that she was excellent. After my first appointment, I agree; I walked away truly feeling that Gillian was extremely thorough, and prided herself in ensuring that her patients were her number one priority! On the whole, I had a very positive experience & will definitely be returning!

I’ve been seeing Dr Lauren for chiro for years and she’s truly the best! So much care and knowledge, I adore her and send everyone her way. I’ve seen a few RMTs at Active over the years, recently their newest team member Nicole and let me tell you, she is phenomenal! She wasn’t afraid to apply pressure and that’s exactly what I needed. Great new addition to the team :)

I have been seeing Jillian at Active Approach for 25+ years and she is wonderful! Very professional and thorough and I feel great after every session. I recently started seeing Liam Johnson for chiropractic and love his approach as well. Very gentle yet effective treatments!
