What Patients Have to Say About Melanie

Melanie Testimonial

"From my very first session with Melanie, she was able to pinpoint the underlying cause of my injury and start getting to work on it immediately - I’ve looked forward to every session since! Melanie always brings a deep knowledge as well as elements of fun to my treatment and exercise plans. She’s super adaptable, and is always open to listening to my feedback and adjusting as needed. Truly I think Melanie can fix anything! The difference between when I started seeing her and now is remarkable.”

“I have been seeing physiotherapist, Melanie Cundari, at Kinective Health & Performance since January of this year. The clinic's location is conveniently located in mid-town Toronto, with street parking right out front, and a parking lot around the corner. The clinic is on the 3rd floor; however, there is an elevator for accessibility. The clinic itself is absolutely gorgeously decorated, and radiates a calmness the second you walk through the door. But most importantly, Kinective is filled with the most amazing therapists! Melanie is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, current & up-to-date on treatments, intelligent, and 'knows her stuff'! I highly recommend physiotherapist extraordinaire, Melanie Cundari, and Kinective Health & Performance!”

Jeffron de Savoye

“I have been a personal trainer for over twenty years. As such, I have worked with many physiotherapists. Melanie stands out as one of the best practitioners I have had the pleasure of working with. I never hesitate to refer a client to Melanie. In fact, I get excited to refer people because I know that Melanie will connect with me and communicate so we can offer collaborate care! Also, I trust her with my body. She helped me recover from a pesky right hip injury in 2020. Melanie is personable, highly professional and dedicated to continuing education.”
