Physiotherapy, Chiropractic and Massage Therapy Services
Physiotherapy, chiropractic care and massage therapy, plus focused treatment for conditions that need more than general care. Some services are offered at specific clinics, so check availability when you book.
About Our Burlington, Stoney Creek and Niagara Falls Clinics
Dr. Lucio Evangelista began practicing in the Burlington area more than 20 years ago, and our clinics have grown to three locations. Our physiotherapists, chiropractors and registered massage therapists share one goal: you should leave every visit feeling respected and well looked after.
Treatment includes hands-on care, but also exercise and plain-language education, so you know how to move through your day without aggravating the problem. Our focus is active, preventative care that gets you moving well and helps keep the problem from coming back.
