 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Friendly staff, and very knowledgeable. Bryan helped me recover from a shoulder injury and gave me a pathway to strengthen and recover. I have had shoulder issues for years and after a few visits and following his advice I have began to understand the cause of my pain, and Bryan explained the pathway of resolving it. Thanks Bryan and the team at Logan Physio
