Dr. Alison Strom has been so great with my young son who’s been struggling with some hip issues during a busy baseball season. Alison is very professional and from our very first visit, she made him feel comfortable and at ease, even though he was nervous about trying acupuncture. Alison takes the time to explain everything, and her combination of acupuncture and laser therapy has been a great part of his recovery. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and skilled practitioner I highly recommend Dr. Alison Strom!

I was injured 3 years ago with a torn biceps tendon and a severe rotator cuff tear. Worksafe agreed to send me to physiotherapy and I chose Vancouver Island Physio in Ladysmith. Shane White has kept me working instead of sitting at home on WCB while waiting for shoulder surgery!! He is an outstanding physiotherapist and just a great person! I would recommend Shane 1000%!!!

A huge thanks to Dr. Kristen(chiropractor) for fixing my neck and also Amy Hinton (physiotherapist)for really taking care of my elbow . I would definitely recommend these two very professional young ladies for any mobility issues.

I suffered 2 serious injuries in 2025. i started therapy with SHAYNE WHITE in December. This has been a complete GAME CHANGER!! Not only does this therapist know his stuff, But he has given me HOPE. When I lost all hope in the system. Anyone on WCB knows how it goes. With the patience and understanding and knowledge, I am finally BEING HEARD ! Being helped with compassion...not lying to me and communicating to me respectfully ..I HIGHLY RECOMMEND SHAYNE and ALL of the staff at VIT. They know what they are doing and actually CARE about their patients..Thankyou to Vancouver Island for existing!!!

I thought my injury would “ heal on its own” but after things got worse and I was taking too many pain pills daily, I called Shayne White at VIphysiotherapy. First visit- what a difference! Why didn’t I go sooner? Shayne explained the cause of my injury, treated the muscles and explained what I could and shouldn’t do while I recovered. After the first visit, no more pain meds and I knew I wouldn’t have to hobble anymore. Shane is very knowledgeable. Don’t wait- go see him.

Myself and family have seen Dr Ashley and 3 of the 4 physiotherapists and have recommended them all to our friends and family to see the team at Vancouver island physiotherapy clinic because there not like other places they listen to you and your needs and come up with a plan to get you back on track whatever that may be dance, or the gym or even office job they keep us moving forward. And of course the amazing admin staff always greeting us and helping us book appointments with our busy lives. My wife also had one of the Acupuncture facials and she hasn’t stop raving about the whole experience she had with Alison out at the cedar location.

I highly recommend Vancouver Island Physiotherapy Clinic for many health needs. The staff, especially the front desk, are absolutely amazing. I personally go once a week and it is a calm, friendly and professional experience each visit. Erika has changed my life and I will forever be grateful.

I have gone to two physiotherapists, and both have been excellent. The time you have with them is one-on-one. There are no shared spaces like other offices, which is wonderful. They really care about your healing. If you are looking for a physiotherapist, try not to be put off by their new horribly uncomfortable office design aesthetic that has patients share a long wooden bench that digs into your back with bright white walls. Although the office may look like they don't promote healing, they do.

Erika and her team are the best of the best and excel at what they do. Knowledgeable, professional and always thorough, the multidisciplinary practice has everything you'll need to maintain or fix the body! As a bodybuilder, lifter and business owner, physiotherapy is part of my overall fitness routine and I wouldn't trust anyone else! As a local gym owner I recommend VIP to all of my clients often and regularly! --Lift Haus Fitness Owner

Erika Harder has cared for my issues since she opened for business in Ladysmith. She is a very hands on therapist. She listens and does her assessments very well. I have been very satisfied with the outcome of my treatments. Erika is personable and very approachable. As a long time patient of Erika’s I would definitely recommend using her for your treatment needs.
