Ruby is the official clinic mascot and greeter. You can find her laying on the floor in the middle of the room, waiting for you to trip over her. What she lacks in enthusiasm, she makes up for in cuteness. Stop by for a quick pet!
ViVi Therapy is a unique and collaborative clinic. We are a small team of therapists focused on treatments that provide wellness support, functional movement, rehabilitation, and recovery from injury and illness. We work in a modern, warm environment, equipped with new electric tables and everything you need to give quality care.
Every couple of months the therapy team gets together to learn something new, sometimes it’s collaborative professional development led by our team leader Roxanne Derkson and other times it is recreational. During this time of Covid 19 health regulations we encourage our therapists to decide individually how much time they need to comfortably clean and chart between appointments.
Testimonial:
“When I started out as a newly Registered Massage Therapist, Roxanne and the other staff of ViVi welcomed me with open arms. Anytime I needed help with direct billing, payments, clinical questions, or general practice guidance, Roxanne was always willing to share her experience and lead me in the right direction. After two years of working at ViVi, I have become a much more confident, knowledgeable, and effective RMT. I will always be grateful for starting my practice at ViVi Therapy.” – Marissa Hoen, RMT
