Welcome to Our Clinic

Comox Physiotherapy Clinic overlooks the beautiful Comox Harbour at our convenient and central downtown location on Comox Avenue.

Since opening our doors in 1992, we have been serving local Comox Valley residents from Courtenay, Cumberland and Comox, Denman Island, Hornby Island, and as well, many people travel from Campbell River and other areas on Vancouver Island to receive physiotherapy treatment here.

At present there are two registered physiotherapists in our Comox Valley based clinic. Owner Linda Maasz was joined by Shannon Lawrence in 1998.
