I was dealing with Back pain for the first time after something went out during a workout. It got a little better with rest & stretching over the holidays but I was still miserable with persistent pain. ONE SINGLE SESSION with Philip and I was 80% better. I'd absolutely recommend anyone with back pain see him.

I have Ehlers Danlos and an unfortunate habit of injuring myself because of it. I've only seen Philip a handful of times, but each time I do end up walking out feeling much better than before. Osteopathy is no miracle cure- it isn't making the Ehlers go away- but it is helping me manage it a lot better than I was before.

Initial appt was ok, gave a decent effort to retain a client. Not too much insight, evidently his true profession is dancing. A little bit invasive/chatty to the point of being off-putting. Second appointment, he cut our 45 min session in half, both letting me in late and sending out early. Low effort and unhelpful with providing a routine. Since, I have tried a different osteopath in the downtown core which met my expectations far better.

I visited Philip with my lower back pain which has been bothering me for two months during my dance rehearsal. His treatment was just amazing. It was gentle but deep, not forcing anything but controlled. When we are in pain, the mind get negative way, but I was so happy and positive after the session because he fixed my body.
Thank you Philip !
Thank you Philip !

I came to Philip with a pain in the lower back and quite a limited ability to move, just at the beginning of our holiday in Canada.
First, he answered my call outside of his working hours and invited me on the same day.
Philip took time to understand my condition and then asked me to lay down. He then "took control" of my body, as if he were a pilot and with gentle movements and subtle pressures has worked his way until I felt relieved. No pain, no force.
I felt fully relieved in 48 hours and enjoyed my holidays!
I greatly appreciated Philip's treatment and highly recommend it to anyone in

Philip is absolutely amazing! Being a professional dancer I put a lot of stress on my body and have sustained many injuries along my journey. I've seen many specialists and undergone many treatments and can easily say working with Philip has been the best and most beneficial of all. Not only has he helped facilitate the road to my recovery, but he's the Osteopath I trust to keep me in top shape year round. Do yourself a favour and visit the Spinal Joint!

I walked in and meet Philip about a month ago. I have lower back pain for a couple of months and I thought to give it a try - first time at a osteopath. I started feeling better right off the bat. Now, after a couple of sessions I don't feel that much pain when I walk and I don't need to use my hand to push myself up in morning. I do computer work, no wonder my back suffers. Philip, clearly knows his job. Recommended.

I was only in Toronto for a few weeks (I'm a physical therapist traveling the US and Canada with the second national tour of Wicked) but I'm so glad I found Philip and got to see him for a few sessions! He went above and beyond what I needed and helped me understand exactly what was going on with my body. I didn't have any experience with… osteopathy before these sessions and if all osteopaths are like Philip I am hooked! Its such an interesting way of looking at the body and has a different mindset than physical therapy. He even taught me a few things I can apply to my own practice. I can
