Took too long but otherwise it was great. The courier you use does not deliver on the weekends so it adds a minimum of 2 days, possibly 4 because of that.

Thanks — we have it. Someone from the clinic team will read it and reply with the service and practitioner we think fit best.
Good to know
How do I book?
Online through Jane, any time, or call the Bedford store at (902) 835-9319 and the clinic team will book you in.
Where is the clinic?
At 486 Starboard Drive, just off Larry Uteck Boulevard — under the same roof as our Bedford store, with its own entrance. Parking is in the lot out front. A Dartmouth clinic is opening in summer 2027.
Do you direct bill?
Yes, to most major insurers — Medavie Blue Cross, Sun Life, Manulife and more. Bring your benefits card.
Do I need a referral?
No. You can book any of our practitioners directly. Some plans ask for a doctor's note before they'll cover treatment; check yours.
What should I bring to a first visit?
Your benefits card if you'd like us to bill directly, any reports or a list of medications that might matter, and comfortable clothes.
Are you taking new patients?
Yes, every practitioner.
Can I see more than one practitioner?
Yes. That's the point of having them side by side; your ND, physio and RMT can talk to each other. Ask any of them.

Amazing TMJ massage with Melissa. If you grind your teeth/clench from stress or have any jaw issues this is a game changer!! I didn't realize how tight my jaw muscles were until after the massage and have found relief from stress headaches.

Dr. Erin Edmonds is amazing. I have had a lifelong phobia of needles and wanted to get over it! After a lot of exposure work, I went to Luminate to try IV vitamins and she explained every step and even set up an appointment to test my reaction. She is so gentle! What an amazing experience. Thank you!

I've been to a fair share of clinics over the last 15 years and Luminate blows them all out of the water. Everyone that I've been treated by have been phenomenal. They really take the time to know your issues.

I have been seeing Dr Justine Landry for approx 4 months for injuries including a ruptured disc and back pain, sustained in an MVA in February 2024. Dr Landry is very knowledgable and has a way of helping patients understand treatment.
