edit: do not go here. the owner heavily implied I should take down this review because they're a small business instead of addressing my issues at all. a small business is still accountable for their actions. she wrote an apology publicly here but did not apologize to me privately at any point. she emailed me via her personal email to deflect blame, as you can see her doing below. with this review, out of respect, I took the time to write a detailed email with my experience and a request to delete my health information and for correction of the action, which clearly had not been done. I don't even think she read it. she asked me what she could do to fix this issue even though I clearly stated my complaint and wishes.

I have since retracted the email since it's clear that the owner and Georgia are incapable of taking accountability. "wellness" is a joke when you don't actually care for the wellness of your clients. this "therapy centre" only cares about their reputation and profit motive, not about being ethical or resolving issues. good luck if you see them. these people should not be practicing in the healthcare industry because they are overstepping their boundaries and they aren't good at service in the first place.

original review: I had an extremely unprofessional experience with Georgia. she pushed her pseudoscientific beliefs on me during my massage, which was incredibly inappropriate. firstly, she advised me to see a naturopath in their clinic, which I disliked but moved on from. then, after asking me if I had any stressors and learning about a recent loss, she told me to see a hypnotherapist to "fix my energy" and talk to the dead instead of offering sympathy like a normal person. she also asked if the loss was "sudden" as if looking for a reason in my life to blame for my illness. lastly, she insinuated out of the blue that my health issues were my fault because I got the covid vaccine, and left the room firmly telling me not to get more vaccines. this is such a dangerous thing to tell someone, especially in a vulnerable setting like a massage. I can't think of a more selfish and unintelligent belief than being against vaccines, and it makes me question this clinic's commitment to the wellbeing of its patients. I worry that they are not seriously taking measures to sanitize, test for illness, or stay home when sick given Georgia's beliefs.

after my massage, she gave me business cards of all these "practioners" she recommended. clearly, she had a personal affiliation with them, and I felt violated that she had essentially used my private health information as an opportunity to advertise. I've honestly never interacted with someone so callously willing to spread their beliefs without any respect to the person they're speaking to, especially as a purported healthcare professional.

I can't speak to the rest of the clinic, which I went to because of its good reviews. the website advertises many other pseudoscientific "alternative medicines" such as craniosacral therapy, reiki, and reflexology. while it's one thing to advertise false cure-alls, it's another to make a customer uncomfortable in a setting they literally are unable to leave. this is a violation of the responsibility any healthcare professional has towards their patients. I am really disappointed and considering reporting this to the regulatory body for RMTs.
