What a night! We’re still feeling so grateful after our Grand Opening and wanted to share a few photos from the celebration. It was so nice to see so many familiar faces — and meet some new ones too!

You may have noticed a couple of new faces at the event:

Monica, our new Occupational Therapist
Leo, our new Counsellor

They’re officially part of the Active Care team, and we’re thrilled to have them on board. If you didn’t get a chance to chat with them during the event, you’re always welcome to call or email us to book with any of our providers — including Monica and Leo.

And good news… our phones are finally working properly, so this time when you call, you’ll actually get through to us. 😉

Thanks again to everyone who came out to celebrate with us. We loved sharing this milestone with you and can’t wait to see you in the clinic again soon!

On Remembrance Day, our thoughts are with the veterans, active-duty members, and military families who walk through our doors every day. Your strength, dedication, and courage inspire us.

🎉 It’s (finally!) happening… 🎉

We’re beyond excited to share that the new side of our building is officially OPEN!

This expansion has been a long time in the making, and we’re thrilled to officially grow into an 18-room clinic — allowing us to continue providing the best care possible for our amazing patients.

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you for your patience, support, and encouragement throughout this process. We know many of you have had questions and have been eagerly waiting alongside us, and we couldn’t be more grateful for your understanding.

For now, we kindly ask that everyone continue to enter through our main entrance, but don’t worry — both entrances will be up and running soon! And when that time comes, there’s no need to stress about which door to use — the clinic flows easily between both sides, so you’ll be able to come in either way.

Mark your calendars: Our Grand Opening Celebration will be on November 7th! Stay tuned for more details — we can’t wait to celebrate this exciting milestone with all of you.

Thank you for being the best part of Active Care. Here’s to growing together!

Concussion and cognitive rehabilitation

Pain and mental health support

Return-to-work and ergonomic planning
