Ila is AMAZING and truly has a healing touch. She’s been a lifesaver for some chronic injuries and will be a permanent part of my roster of practitioners. If you’re on the fence about trying osteopathy, or are considering switching practitioners, I cannot recommend Ila enough. She’s incredible!

Ila is amazing at what she does! I have seen 3 other Osteopaths in the city and no one compares. I have been living with chronic pain for years and after my first two sessions, I feel like a whole new person! Don’t hesitate to book! Also, the clinic is beautiful, relaxing, clean and safe feeling.

I love being a client of Thuja Wellness. Personally, I see Ila for osteopathy and really enjoy her calm and kind energy. She is a master of her craft and is confident and competent when treating her patients. She shares her knowledge freely, and I am very grateful to have found her. The clinic is clean and spacious and very calming. Their Covid protocols are thorough, and the entire experience is smooth and effortless. Thuja makes taking care of your health enjoyable and easy.

Extremely Trans and queer-friendly. Super easy to book with and the whole staff is so nice – I can’t even begin to describe how grateful I am for this clinic. I saw Ila for a pain I’ve had in my shoulder for the past 7 years and am now finally free of it, and then some! She is a master of her craft, very kind and courteous, and has great respect and understanding of all bodies. Thank you so much for everything!

I found my first visit to Thuja Wellness provided me with my first glimmer of hope in healing my ongoing health issues. Ila was attentive and compassionate to my concerns, detailed in her assessment of my body, and skilled in her treatments. I am already looking forward to future visits as she continues my treatments. I highly recommend Thuja Wellness!

As a first time Osteopath patient, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Ila exceeded all expectations. She listened with compassion, explained everything in detail and made sure that I understood what to do after the appointment to maximize benefits. My body feels more aligned than ever! Looking forward to my next appointment.

I love going to Thuja Wellness! I had problems with both my knees and in just a couple weeks I am feeling fantastic. Before I could only run for 3 km before me knees acted up and now I am running 10+ km, playing tennis and feeling great. I highly recommend Thuja Wellness.

My partner and I were trying to conceive for close to a year and a half with no luck. My friend kept telling me about this amazing Osteopath that she was seeing for her fertility. She was also having a difficult time conceiving (over a year). After a few months of my friend seeing Ila and taking part in her fertility program, she became pregnant. This was when I knew I had to take charge of my fertility so I made an appointment with Ila. Ila recommends a program that includes a combination of RMT, osteopathy, and acupuncture. I recently started acupuncture somewhere else, so I decided to just see Ila for osteopathy and did not do the full program. Ila is a such a kind, understanding, and caring soul. She really listened to my concerns and I truly felt like she was right by my side through my struggles. As an added bonus, she would make me a fertility oil that I became obsessed with. After a couple cycles of seeing Ila, I was pregnant. I could not believe it. I truly thank Ila for being a part of my fertility journey and I would highly recommend seeing her. PS. I am 16 weeks pregnant today and it’s a BOY! So far everything is going really well (now that I’m not nauseous everyday!). I will come see you a little later into my pregnancy 🙂

I went to Ila when chronic foot pain was interfering with the pleasure of walking/hiking. Ila was a delight to visit, a great combination of competent, professional and friendly. My foot pain shifted immediately and I needed only additional treatment to stabilize it. I recommend her without reservation.

My experience with Ila was great. The booking process is seamless and the treatments effective in addressing my issue. I went to see her a few times earlier this year. Not only did I see results quickly, but also months later I still feel good. I’d recommend without hesitation. She seemed to genuinely care about my well-being. Thank you Ila.

I originally came in to see Ila for pain in my shoulders due to having a physical job. I felt comfortable in her abilities right at the start because of her obvious knowledge and caring nature. Ila helped alleviate my pain. I highly recommend her for any pain you have, as a prenatal/postnatal mum, athlete or anyone with pain. Thank you Ila!

I developed the most insane shoulder pain over a number of months (low grade manageable culminating in weeping intensity over Christmas). I was diagnosed with calcified tendonitis and my doctor gave me a steroid shot and put me on a waiting list for removing the calcium deposits. In the meantime, my shoulder continued to have constant mid-grade pain. I went to see Ila and I’m not sure what she did but I was able to move my arm without pain for the first time in weeks. I’m still on that wait list but I know if the pain comes back before I’m able to get it taken care of I can go see Ila to see me through.
