What Toronto Mamas Are Saying About Ellie Hong

​"My pelvic floor physiotherapy session with Ellie Hong was comprehensive and tailored to me, and I’m looking forward to moving forward with her program."

"I loved seeing Ellie Hong for my pelvic floor therapy! She was kind, informative and very helpful! She also helped with my cesarean scar therapy which made a world of difference on my scar!"

"Saw Ellie at Yoga Mamas for prenatal and postpartum pelvic physiotherapy. She was pivotal in helping me manage and rehabilitate from both pubic symphysis dysfunction and diastasis recti during pregnancy. She was punctual, professional, and had excellent bedside manner. The exercises and positioning advice she gave were both effective and easy to incorporate into my schedule/lifestyle. Progress was apparent with each session and I largely credit my excellent postpartum recovery to her efforts. She was also able to do a postpartum session with me virtually which was so convenient with a newborn. Would definitely recommend her to others!"

"Ellie is SO efficient, helpful, knows her stuff, responsive. She has been great so far and would highly recommend."
