“A professional, gentleman and healing practitioner. Our sessions with Garrett were nothing short of life altering. My dad was very significantly negatively impacted by physiotherapists lacking knowledge and expertise in helping my father recover from a knee replacement. By the time we met Garrett my dad was hunched over when he walked, experiencing regular pain, lacking mobility and therefore inactive. A friend referred us to Garrett with raving remarks that I was a bit skeptical to believe. Within 20 minutes of watching him work I was convinced. Every aspect of the environment and Garrett's therapy is individualized and intentional. Sounds, scents, essential oils, lighting and careful attention to hear all that needs to be heard before beginning treatment. After our first session my dad’s progresswas remarkable. Specifically, his posture, the mobility of his knee and restored hope. Garret focused on area’s that previous therapists hadn’t even discussed or paid any attention too. Garrett provided insight and plans that would contribute to long term health. Can’t say enough good stuff about this man, in short, this man is a specialist in bringing health and mending to broken bodies. Garret, thank you for taking care of my dad!”

"I am a singer who struggled with a vocal cord injury last year. Because of the time spent on vocal rest or with very little voice use, the muscles in my throat and neck had become uncomfortably tight and painful when starting to use them again. All the techniques the doctors gave me weren’t working and I could barely get through singing 20 minutes without total fatigue, even though my injury was almost healed. A friend recommended Garret and after the first session with him, I woke up the next day and had the best vocal day I had had in almost a year. Everything was loose and opened up and I was able to get through a 3 hour rehearsal no problem. He works magic”

“My son Bo connected me with Garrett. In the three weeks we were in San Juan Capistrano, I met with Garrett 5 times. I had knee surgery performed on the 28 th May 2018, in Hilton, South Africa. My knee refused to cooperate with all physiotherapists in South Africa and personal trainer: 6 in total by the end of November 2019, when I left for North America. I consulted a physiotherapist for about 4 times in Martinsville, Saskatchewan. What separates Garret from all these physiotherapists: 1. Every session is a long heavy workout for him as he drips from his thorough workout: he must be losing weight from this job 2. He is a professional: he knows about the physical body. He educates the subject about what he is going to do 3. He knows his craft: from the very first moment he met me he informed my wife Dee, Bo and me: By the time I am done with you, You will be standing upright on your left leg. 4. We must strengthen the muscles that have been in disrepair from lack of use during the recovery from the surgery 5. He used his machines to different parts of the body: he rubbed the back muscles, he rubbed the shoulders, he rubbed the thighs, he rubbed the legs, he rubbed the left knee [which was obviously still painful] and he even warned me to be careful for the anticipated agony from the body 6. Every session was accompanied with pain from the severe workout 7. I developed the confidence to place my heel on the floor: to build muscles in the left leg plus knee 8. Where I was dependent on the crutches, I have put them away as a conquest, thanks to Garret: I am continuing to recover as I do my knee exercises.”

“After hearing raves about a local therapeutic fitness and wellness guru, I contacted Garrett and asked if he could help with my only health problem: an unacceptable golf game.  He tailored training to my specific body and swing and lowered my index (handicap) by five points.”

“Garrett is a miracle worker!!! I’m so thankful for his work! I’ve been seeing him for years to treat my chronic neck and back pain from an accumulation of sports injuries and impact on my spine. I’d choose a session with Garrett over a massage or chiropractor, no questions asked. At my wedding he was there to save the day. I had been holding my very large bouquet for hours on end and it resulted in sever neck and shoulder pain. Thankfully, before the reception, Garrett was able to work on me to relieve the pain and I was able to enjoy the night. Thank you so much Garrett!

“Within five minutes of meeting Garrett I knew he had a special gift. Just by looking at me, he knew more about my aches, pains and injuries than I did. Since that first day he has relieved stubborn painful plantar fasciitis, lower back pain and improved my flexibility and mobility in areas I thought were middle age lost causes. Garrett has an infectious optimism backed by solid technique and results. His knowledge of the body and healing therapies are up-to-date and fueled by his thirst for knowledge. The one-on-one focused attention, fun conversation, thoughtful plan and life changing outcome you will receive is priceless. Without hesitation I encourage anyone of any age to bring their fresh injuries or painful longterm problems to Garrett and let him work his magic!”

“When I started seeing Garrett in November of last year my body was becoming increasingly immobile as a result of a number of horseback riding injuries over the years.  My right shoulder had been frozen for a year, despite several cortisone shots.   My range of motion was severely limited and I had a lot of pain.  At the same time, I had sciatic pain radiating down my left leg which madewalking and even standing excruciating at times. After weekly sessions with Garrett over the last past several months, I am happy to say that my shoulder mobility and pain has significantly improved and I am back to walking with little or no discomfort. I can't say enough about Garrett's healing hands!  He has improved my quality of life immensely over the past few months and I am really looking forward to starting my strength-training program when we can get back in the gym!”

“There are massage therapists, physical therapists, and chiropractors, and then there is Garrett Day, whose intuitive and skilled therapy has greatly enhanced my life and lifestyle: from increased muscle and tendon flexibility; the elimination of adhesions, pinching and other debilitating muscle and nerve conditions and; enhanced body posture and balance that I haven’t experienced for decades. Prior to meeting Garrett, I was scheduled for surgical repair of my (right) shoulder rotator cuff. At that time I also had stopped running, due to extreme pain in my right knee. I even began experiencing calf cramps with non-impact cardio exercise. And if all of that was not enough, my lower back was frequently stiff and painful to the point of interrupting my sleep patterns, and not being able to bend down pain free to tie my shoes. In short, decades of vigorous exercise had caught up to me. Having tried most traditional solutions with limited success, I began regular one hour therapy sessions with Garrett. It’s not traditional massage, and it’s not chiropractic, but rather a combination of very direct deep tissue manipulation and percussive massage for those specific areas that Garrett identifies as being the root cause of the problem. For example, my knee pain was the result of an exceptionally inflexible and tight hip and IT (iliotibial) band, along with deep adhesions around my patella (knee cap), that was causing pain and inflammation. Today I run, do leg presses and squats, and even walk up and down stairs pain free for the first time in years. Garrett’s secret is a two-fold ability to identify the root cause of the pain and pinching, and correct the adverse condition through very intuitive massage skills and experience. Over the course of several treatments, Garrett eliminated virtually all of my orthopedic pain, while greatly enhancing my flexibility, range of motion, and body balance. I recently turned 60 years old, and am able to run, spin, lift weights, ski, body board, and even walk up and down stairs without any pain or limited movement. If you are worn out with the myriad of body aches and pains that slow you down, Garrett’s savant-like intuition, unique therapy, and deeply caring demeanor will greatly enhance your physical and emotional well-being.

“ I am a 75 year old retired physician who has already had a hip replacement and supposedly needs a knee replacement.  Every time I see the Orthopedic Surgeon, he tells me I need my knee replacement.  I tell him that I only have minimal discomfort, but what I do have is tightness in the back of my knee.  My knee had been tight even day for the three months prior to my first treatment with the Theragun.  I saw Garrett and he gave me a one hour treatment to both legs and back and the tightness in my left knee was  immediately 100% better  after the initial treatment.  I now get a treatment every one to two weeks as needed.  What I realized is that I may need a knee replacement eventually, but the muscles in the leg contribute to the problem, and this can be relieved by the theragun.”

“I wanted to send you a note for being such a major part of my health over the last five years.  From building muscle while losing weight, gaining flexibility, your understanding of the appropriate therapy to make life more enjoyable and active, you have impacted my health and life in so many ways.  I am glad you still have the same energy, passion, and commitment as the first day we met and look forward to working with you for many years to come.”

“Garrett is very committed to helping people.  He listens, asks lots of questions, expresses the right amount of empathy and then combines all of that with a detailed plan with explanation of what we can do together to reduce the pain, and more importantly what you can do on your own after formal therapy to keep your body healthy in the future.

 Whether it was recovering from shoulder and foot surgeries or dealing with tennis elbow symptoms, I have always had great success in my treatments and the after-therapy plans established.

 I highly recommend Garrett and his practice to deal with any of your symptoms that bring you your “aches and pains.”
