Miranda has been incredibly helpful to me. She is kind, professional, very knowledgeable, and truly cares about her patients. If not for her direct influence, I would be in a much worse state. She's very down to earth, easy to talk to, and she's a good listener. She has improved my quality of life and I would recommend her to anyone. My case is a pretty complicated one, and Miranda knows exactly how to deal with it and what I need.
I first came across Ascent two and a bit years ago when I needed help to recover from a car accident. Chad Piper was excellent in helping me with my recovery and pushed me to be better than I was before the accident.
Then in Nov 2025 after months of months having severe lower back pain, and X-rays to rule out anything really bad, I made an appointment with Chad. With his amazing help I’ve gone from 24 hour debilitating pain to it being almost non existent. He pushes me past where I thought I could go and makes me better.
I also signed up my husband to see Chad after finding out that he was having shoulder/neck issues. He can now move freely without any issues.
The ladies at the front are very nice and welcoming, willing to help in any way they can.
As someone who’s unfortunately seen a lot of physiotherapists over the years, I would and do recommend Ascent health and Chad for their amazing work towards pain free stronger movement.

My experience with Ascent and particularly Miranda as a Physio has been excellent. After 18 months, 12 appointments and two different issues, I have found the immediate treatment always “relieving”, the suggested exercises sent by email including videos easy to follow. Most important to me is that Miranda is always positive and hopeful. She understands the difficulties associated with “near 80” muscles and bones. There might not be miracles but there is tremendous help provided. Thank you.
I don’t hand out 5 star reviews in healthcare lightly. I’m a tough critic, so it truly means something when I give one. Chad was exceptional in helping me recover from a fracture in my knee that completely derailed my travel plans. I trusted his evidence based approach and expertise throughout my physical recovery. He also supported the mental side of healing, pushing me when I needed it (which was often!), reassuring me when I felt scared, and showing real compassion on the days I was discouraged or just struggling with life.
Chad absolutely deserves 5 stars, and so does the clinic as a whole. The front desk staff were consistently warm, welcoming, and friendly, creating a genuinely pleasant atmosphere every visit.
Thank you for helping me get back to normal life and to travelling!

Both Tenille and Natasha are great! I’ve been working with them for massage and physio since becoming pregnant with my 3rd. Now I’m in my postpartum recovery and they have both provided individualized and ongoing support. Interactions always feel warm, knowledgeable and never rushed. I’ve recommended the ascent team to friends and family!
Really great to work with Miranda. The appointments are never rushed with her, and she always takes the time to understand my concerns and make sure I have input in the recovery plan. It's very clear that patients are her number one priority. She's helping with my knee issues now and I'm confident I can get back to peak physical condition with her coaching.
I’ve been going to Ascent for about four months now and have noticed a huge improvement with my overall mobility, pain levels, and how my body feels day to day. Scott is knowledgeable, attentive, and really takes the time to understand what’s going on rather than rushing you through.
I also have to mention the girls at the front, they are amazing! Always welcoming, friendly, and so organized. They help make every visit feel comfortable and easy from start to finish.

I have found their service to be truly personalized. They take their time, listen, and make sure every part of the process feels supported.
I personally recommend Dr. Ryan Boyd, I’ve noticed a big improvement since I started with him. This is not just chiropractic care; it’s a full program. You even get access to an app with personalized stretches and exercises to follow at home, which really helps with progress.
My daughter sees Miranda Lohues, and she has been an incredible support throughout her knee recovery journey. She does far more than physiotherapy. She advocates, encourages, and truly cares.
If you’re looking for a clinic that goes above and beyond, with professionals who give that extra plus in every part of treatment, this is the place I would recommend.
And honestly, they deserve an extra star for this:
they’re still kind, calm, and patient even when I arrive with my entire little crew (kids, chaos, and all)

I started working with Chad about six weeks ago after my ACL surgery, and I couldn’t be happier with the care I’ve received. He’s a very skilled and attentive physiotherapist, and I always feel supported and encouraged during every session. My healing process is going better than I expected, and I genuinely feel like I’m making steady progress thanks to his guidance. Highly recommend!
I highly recommend Natasha Lohues for a Pelvic Floor Health assessment and care. I put off getting an assessment for a couple of years after my last pregnancy, but Natasha helped me by setting up a practical, accomplishable plan that has delivered amazing results. I feel both more informed and more in control of managing my pelvic floor health. She's both fun and informed - I have sent friends to Natasha and I wouldn't hesitate to send anyone looking to understand more about pelvic floor health her way.
I have been seeing Arzoo for physiotherapy for hamstring tendinopathy and gluteal/lower back issues for a couple of months now and have seen fantastic results. I’m a runner and my hamstring would get tight and sore every time I ran, and I was consistently putting my back out towards the end of my training blocks. She has been doing dry needling and massage at our sessions and prescribed a bunch of exercises and stretches to do at home that have made a big difference. I rarely feel any hamstring pain or tightness when I run now, and my back pain has been very minimal and I have even had some days where I’ve been completely pain free. I haven’t felt that in years! She is really awesome, I highly recommend booking a consultation or appointment with her!
Miranda has been wonderful to work with for pelvic floor conditioning. She took the time to really listen and tailored my therapy to fit my needs. I appreciated how clearly she explained everything—it made the process easy to follow and understand. Thanks to her guidance, I’ve regained confidence and control over my health. Highly recommend!
Miranda has been nothing short of fantastic; she’s a pro. I broke my ankle at work in August and Miranda has been helping me get through the rocky road of recovery. What I have liked most about the sessions is I can tell she cares. She’s thorough, thoughtful, incredibly knowledgeable and listens to my concerns. We have also worked together in developing a fitness plan that meets my needs and the tracking app she uses keeps me motivated. I have already recommended Miranda to a family member and I will continue to recommend her moving forward. I can’t thank you enough.
I worked with Dr. Scott for a couple months and his knowledge, treatment, and care were top-notch. I will definitely continue to work with him and would recommend him to anyone looking for evidence-based care. The front desk staff at the clinic are also very friendly, communicative, and easy to work with. Great clinic all around.
I can’t recommend Miranda enough! She was absolutely awesome throughout my recovery. Her expertise and knowledge made a huge difference — she helped me get back to moving comfortably and confidently again. She’s always friendly, supportive, and takes the time to explain everything clearly. I also really appreciated how punctual and professional she was at every appointment. If you’re looking for a physiotherapist who truly cares and knows her stuff, Miranda is the one!
After a near death ICU check in I began the incredible journey back. Once back on the outside I was in need of real physical therapy and fate dropped me into the hands of Ascent Health & Sport Therapy. Fortune aligned me with Natasha Lohues who I have been with since. My situation was quite bad and I had much weakness to overcome. Natasha never gave up on me, even though at times I had plateaued. She always continues to encourage me and I have made great improvement because of her. But also because of the super positive vibe and great support staff here. If you want to climb to new heights, Ascent is the perfect collaborative situation. It's great to feel like you have a team with you and not just you visiting an awkward office. 10⭐
I have been working with Chad Piper since August and it has been a fantastic experience. His approach to healthcare is educated, thoughtful, and realistic. I have improved substantially with his guidance and care. While recovering after an injury is never easy he has made the process a straightforward and positive, and I have appreciated every second working with him. If you need a physio, Chad is the only one you should see!
I've been going to Ascent for Chrio and Physio for a few years and have been so blessed to have found this clinic. I have nothing but positive things to say. I'll add that I'm not critical but I'm a fair judge and have only left a 5-star review for one other business in my life. The front staff are kind and good at their job. Dr. Fisher in particular has helped me with many different injuries and always treats me with respect, listens to what I'm saying, and does all he can to assist in my recovery.
I have been working with Andrew and Page at the Kensington clinic since late 2024 . Working with a pretty messed up sholder injury , they have been able to keep my pain levels low while trying to build some strength back 💪. The atmosphere is amazing ,warm and welcoming. The Clinic is dog friendly and have brought my dog in once but she is a little clingy and can get more work done if she not under foot.
Both Page and Andrew are great to work with. Can't really pick one over the other. I have been going twice a week for some time now. And credit them both to keeping my range of motion good and pain low. Do to my injury I will keep using the clinic for as long as I can.
I would recommend either one of them if your in need of some help.

I have been a patient of Miranda's for about 3 months now. I first came to Miranda with a problem of pinched nerve in the shoulder, which restricted my range of motions, impacted my daily routines and at times, keep me from sleeping. Miranda was very transparent with her diagnosis and treatment plan, and was exceptionally patience with my questions. The treatment was a mix of dry needling, massages and at home stretches/ exercises; which later transitioned to a focus of form improvements related to weight lifting to help me return to my pre-injury routines.
I have been pain-free for the past 3 weeks and I cannot be thankful enough for Miranda's help and guidance. Highly recommend.

I've been working with Chad Piper for just over a month now, and it's no exaggeration to say that the impact he's had on my quality of life has been profound. From our first session, he took the time to fully understand the issues I was facing. With a combination of skilled care, targeted exercises, and timely referrals, he’s helped treat not just one, but two significant neuromas in my foot. Thanks to his treatment approach, I'm now completely pain-free — something even my podiatrist found remarkable. I truly can’t recommend him highly enough. If you're in Calgary and need a physiotherapist, he's the only one to see.
Super friendly staff, starting at Reception. Chad is incredible- he makes sure you’re comfortable and is very thorough to ensure you understand. I appreciate his check-ins throughout the appointment. Very down to earth, knowledgeable, and kind.
Chad is an amazing physiotherapist. He always made sure I was comfortable from the first to my last session. His exercise plans were effective and easy to follow at home so I feel much more confident in managing my condition long term. His positive attitude also made every session a joy to go to. It's also the first time in a LONG time that I've remained pain free, so thank you Chad for helping me get here! 10/10 would highly recommend!
I normally don't give a review but Ascent is really doing a great job to help me recover my syndromes.
I highly recommend this place for Message and Physio the team is great. They take the time to listen and the work they has been helping a lot.
Fantastic place, just started going and already Natasha is superb. Clear, informative, and listens to what I say. Excited to see my results in a few months but I don’t expect to need to change this review.
Very thorough and professional! Great knowledge of how to address my individual issues. Highly recommend!
I highly recommend Dr. Scott Fisher. He is a knowledgeable, skilled and professional. I noticed improvements after my first session with him.
If you’re in Calgary and need a physio who’s experienced, easy to work with, and gets real results, I’d highly recommend Chad Piper at Ascent Health.
I went in for lingering knee pain and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Chad did a proper assessment, explained what was going on without overcomplicating it, and gave me a treatment plan that actually felt doable. You can tell he works with a lot of athletes—he focused on the root of the issue and built a plan around my goals, not just a one-size-fits-all fix.
Chad’s easy to talk to, checked in throughout, and adjusted things as I started making progress. I noticed a real difference and feel way more confident getting back to the activities I enjoy.

This is the first time I visited Ascent. I had heard some really good things about the RMT - Anthony Veltri and hence wanted to give it a try as I was in a lot of pain. I must say,Anthony is one of the best RMT’s I’ve ever visited. He knows his stuff super well and has tons of experience in dealing with complex cases related to injury. The location is super accessible and the staff is super nice.if you are in pain or have any kind of injury,you should see anything atleast once. Cheers,Vishal!!
Dr Fisher was thorough, listened and caring. Made an excellent treatment plan, gave exercises and was optimistic.
I felt I was in excellent hands full of knowledge and expertise.

I was referred to Ascent Health & Sport Therapy and more specifically to Dr. Scott Fisher to treat a chronic issue. First time going to a chiropractor - I was a bit nervous but it was a great experience overall. Dr. Fisher was very friendly and professional. He conducted a thorough assessment and answered my questions along the way. Once treatment started, he made sure to explain what he was doing so I would be at ease. Further, the receptionist was also great and helped me with my billing questions (sorry I didn’t get her name). Looking forward to continuing my rehab here in the future!
I’ve been seeing Anthony Sousa for nearly two years following two motor vehicle accidents, and I can say without a doubt that he is the BEST physiotherapist you could ever ask for. Anthony doesn’t just treat you—he transforms your recovery.
His commitment to his clients goes above and beyond anything I’ve experienced. While most physiotherapists split their focus between multiple clients, Anthony gives you his full attention every single session, ensuring your treatment is entirely personalized to your specific needs. His approach isn’t just professional; it’s deeply dedicated and caring.
The progress I’ve made under his care has been nothing short of life-changing, and I didn’t hesitate to bring my mum to him after her own accident. I knew she would be in the best hands.
Anthony’s expertise, compassion, and relentless drive to help his clients heal are unmatched. If you want a physiotherapist who is not only skilled but deeply invested in your well-being and recovery, Anthony Sousa is the ONLY choice. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Dr. Nicole Laird was incredible and helped me through a pinched nerve that made my hand and thumb go numb. She helped me come up with a recovery schedule that was speedy and solid, where after each session (and week of exercises) I came back with more feeling. Now, I’ve got full feeling back in my hand as well as thumb after a month and a bit.
I can’t recommend Dr. Laird enough! Not only did she help me regain feeling and get back to my work, but she also helped me release my voice through releasing some tension in my neck I didn’t know I had. She went above and beyond to research and help my specific issues and bring me relief and more knowledge.
The amenities are professional and welcoming, and the front desk staff are great as well. A solid team - I even had a dizziness spell one session, and Dr. Laird had an apple for me to regain my blood sugar. 11/10 service!
