Able Wellness Centre: Redefining holistic health in Burnaby Heights
It was founded by Ji Hyun (Alicia) Lee, who has more than ten years of experience as a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) and Kinesiologist. The space reflects her commitment to health and provides a variety of services aimed at helping clients recover from injuries and feel well again.
“We believe in a holistic approach to health,” Alicia explains, emphasizing the importance of combining different treatments for optimal results. The clinic’s integrative philosophy combines passive therapies, such as massage, with active treatments, such as exercise. Services at Able Wellness include massage therapy, kinesiology, acupuncture, chiropractic care, physiotherapy, and Pilates.
The team at Able Wellness reflects the clinic’s commitment to quality care, comprising five RMTs, three kinesiologists, two acupuncturists, two chiropractors, and two physiotherapists. Alicia personally vets all potential team members, ensuring they meet the clinic’s high standards. “I want every client to feel that they are in the best hands possible, just as I would want for myself,” she shares.
Alicia chose Burnaby Heights because of its community and charm, believing it the perfect location for Able Wellness. “This area feels like home to me.” Looking ahead, she has exciting plans for programming expansion, including introducing services such as naturopathy, as well as more yoga and additional Pilates classes to maximize their gym space.
Beyond running the clinic, Alicia balances her work as an RMT school instructor, YouTube content creator, and avid golfer. Despite her busy schedule, she enjoys the flexibility and fulfillment, “I love that I can do everything I want here,” she says.
Alicia’s passion makes Able Wellness more than only a clinic; it creates a one-stop shop dedicated to helping the Burnaby Heights community members live healthier, happier lives.
