The pain in my elbow and shoulder has completely gone away, and I feel so much better. A special thank you to Dr. Behzad for being highly professional, knowledgeable, and experienced. I truly appreciate the excellent care and treatment I received. Highly recommended!Posted on Google Amir ShahiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a severe pain on my upper back in a way that I couldn't sleep at night for a while, after two sessions of treatment with Dr.Sobhani the pain reduced significantly and after another 2 sessions the problem solved completely. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone who is dealing with muscle or joint pains. Also the customer service was perfect and the whole team was professional.Posted on Google Jack ChenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent experience, knowledge staff with good explanation and demonstration of recovery exercises. I was able to have full recovery of a long lasting shoulder discomfort over approx 5 weeks of treatmentPosted on Google Kian MehrTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a significant L5-S1 disc injury that was affecting the nerve, causing sciatic pain, numbness, and weakness in my leg. At one point, I had significant difficulty walking, standing even for a few seconds, and pushing off with my right calf and was concerned about whether I would be able to return to my normal activities. A specialist also evaluated me and suggested that surgery could be an option. Before starting with Ben at New Life Physio, I had seen another physiotherapist at a different clinic for six sessions, but unfortunately experienced no meaningful improvement. My experience with Ben was completely different. He uses research-based methods and combines highly effective exercises and therapies during his sessions. His explanations are clear and accurate, and his guidance gave me a much better understanding of my injury and how to recover safely and effectively. With Ben’s help, I made significant progress. I can now run, lift weights, and get back to my normal daily life, which I wasn’t sure would be possible when I was at my worst. Ben is knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely focused on helping his patients recover. I highly recommend Ben and New Life Physio to anyone dealing with an injury and looking for an evidence-based, effective approach to rehabilitation.Posted on Google Allan BeharryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My normal physio place was booked up so I tried New Life and I am glad I did. Sobhan is much better than the other physios. There is more emphasis on hands-on therapy (not just machines) and getting you to do exercises during the session.Posted on Google Danielle MulvihillTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone. Ben and the whole team are amazing. They are welcoming and friendly and their physio services and equipment are world class. I had an SI glute injury and I couldn't believe how quickly I went from incapacitated to full recovery. Love the app where my exercises are sent too!Posted on Google MiladTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a really good experience with the physiotherapy services at New Life Physio & Health Clinic. Everyone was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. They took the time to understand my issue and made sure I was comfortable throughout the treatment. The clinic is clean and well equipped, and I was very happy with the care and attention I received. I would definitely recommend them.Posted on Google Neda KeramatiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience at New Life Physio & Health Clinic specially my physiotherapist, Mr. Ben. He is highly professional, knowledgeable, and takes the time to understand your concerns and provide effective treatment. The clinic has a friendly and welcoming environment, which makes every visit comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommended Mr. Ben to enyone looking for excellent physiotherapy care.😊Posted on Google Shabnam KhosraviTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Ben at New Life Physio. He quickly identified the cause for my shoulder pain and his treatment made a huge difference. He’s knowledgeable, caring, and really pays attention to your progress. The clinic is very clean and welcoming, and the staff are great. Overall, an excellent experience!Posted on Google Kian KeramatTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m happy about the treatment I received here. Here, each patient goes to a separate room that is divided by actual thick dividers, it’s not just a curtain, therefore the patient’s privacy is respected. Ben, whom I have had a couple of sessions with was a very knowledgeable and professional doctor. I always thought the sessions are too short for what you pay, but after hearing about the experience of other patients in other physiotherapy clinics, I have realized in this case, the sessions being short here is actually a feature! Some clinics say we would offer 1 hour to 1 hour and half treatment session but half of that time you would have to wait for the doctor and their various assistants to come by and check on you. Whereas in New life clinic, staff work like clock, I cannot say that even a single minute of mine has been wasted, right after the doctor is done, their assistants would take over the treatment procedure. I highly recommend this clinic.

Longevity Training: What Should You Actually Train for a Longer, Healthier Life?
Forget chasing the perfect workout. If your goal is to stay strong, mobile and independent as you get older, what you train may matter more than how impressive your workout looks. We often think of exercise in terms of weight loss, building muscle or improving athletic performance. But there is another goal that deserves more attention: healthspan—the number of years you can live while staying strong, active and independent. So, what should we actually train for healthy aging? 🏋️ 1. Keep Your Muscles Strong As we get older, we naturally lose some muscle mass and strength. This process can become more significant and is sometimes referred to as sarcopenia—the age-related loss of muscle strength, muscle mass and physical function. In simple terms, sarcopenia means becoming gradually weaker and less physically capable as we age. It can eventually make everyday activities such as climbing stairs, getting out of a chair, carrying

I’m Not Into the Gym — Can I Do Yoga Instead for My Knee OA?
If you’ve been told that exercise can help your knee osteoarthritis (OA) but the thought of lifting weights or hitting the gym turns you off, you’re not alone. A common question we hear is: “Can I just do yoga instead of gym-based strengthening exercises for my knee pain?” The answer is: Yes, you can — and it can work just as well. What the Study Found A 2025 clinical trial published in JAMA Network Open put this exact question to the test. Researchers ran a 24-week randomized controlled trial with 129 adults diagnosed with knee OA in Tasmania, Australia. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups: Both groups followed the same weekly structure for the first 12 weeks: After week 12, participants transitioned to fully home-based programs for the remaining 12 weeks, using video instructions and weekly support emails to stay on track. Researchers assessed outcomes like knee
