Serving Oakville, Mississauga and surrounding areas since 2021. Formerly Platinum Physiotherapy.
Home > About Wellmax Physiotherapy in Oakville
Thank you for taking a moment to learn about Wellmax Physiotherapy in Oakville. Wellmax Physiotherapy has been serving patients at 1148 Winston Churchill Blvd since 2021. Formerly known as Platinum Physiotherapy, the clinic is led by Gurmeet Rai, Registered Physiotherapist. Trusted by 2000+ patients in Oakville and Mississauga, we provide evidence-based, one-on-one care delivered by experienced clinicians who prioritize long-term results over quick fixes. Every patient gets the kind of care that most clinics promise but few actually deliver. One-on-one care at Wellmax. Thorough assessments that take 60 minutes, not 15. Treatment plans built around measurable goals, not open-ended appointments. And a clinic director who still treats patients every day rather than managing from behind a desk.
That clinic director is Gurmeet Rai, a registered physiotherapist, rostered and Level 3 certified in pelvic health, and the person who sets the clinical standard at Wellmax. When patients follow a physiotherapist from a previous clinic across town, driving 25 minutes past a dozen other options, that says something about the quality of care. That is exactly what happened when Gurmeet opened Wellmax, and it continues to be the reason families across Oakville and south Mississauga choose this clinic over others that are closer to home.
Wellmax is not a franchise and not a chain. It is a local, owner-operated clinic where the person who owns it treats patients every day, and the reputation is built one recovery at a time. We have grown into a multidisciplinary team of physiotherapists, chiropractors, registered massage therapists, and a naturopathic doctor who collaborate on your care, so you get a cohesive recovery plan instead of fragmented, disconnected appointments.

Meet Gurmeet Rai, RPT: Clinic Director and Lead Physiotherapist
Gurmeet brings years of diverse clinical experience across musculoskeletal rehabilitation, pelvic health, vestibular rehabilitation, concussion management, and chronic pain treatment. She is a rostered pelvic health physiotherapist with the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario, a designation that requires specialized post-graduate training and demonstrates competency in a highly sensitive and technical area of physiotherapy.
Her clinical approach is built on three principles that she applies to every patient, regardless of condition.
The first is thoroughness. The initial assessment is where treatment succeeds or fails. Gurmeet’s assessments look beyond the area of pain to identify the contributing factors: the stiff thoracic spine behind the shoulder impingement, the weak hip muscles behind the knee pain, the cervical spine dysfunction behind the TMJ disorder. Problems that haven’t responded to previous treatment often haven’t been assessed properly.
The second is honesty. Patients get a clear explanation of what is causing their problem, how long recovery is expected to take, and what they can realistically expect from treatment. Not vague reassurance. Not endless sessions without benchmarks. A specific plan with measurable goals and a timeline. If physiotherapy isn’t the right approach for a patient’s condition, Gurmeet says so and directs them to the appropriate provider.
The third is independence. The goal of every treatment plan is to give patients the knowledge and tools to manage their condition on their own. Not to create dependence on weekly clinic visits. Patients learn what is causing their problem, why the exercises work, and how to maintain their progress long after treatment ends.
Clinical Specializations
Gurmeet’s post-graduate training and clinical focus areas include pelvic health physiotherapy (incontinence, prolapse, pelvic pain, prenatal and postpartum rehabilitation, diastasis recti, painful intercourse), vestibular and balance rehabilitation (BPPV, vertigo, dizziness, post-concussion vestibular deficits), TMJ and jaw pain treatment (intra-oral and extra-oral techniques, cervicogenic jaw dysfunction), concussion rehabilitation (cervical spine, vestibular, oculomotor, and cardiovascular protocols), musculoskeletal and orthopaedic physiotherapy (back pain, neck pain, shoulder injuries, knee conditions, hip pain, sports injuries), and chronic pain management (pain neuroscience education, graded exposure, functional reconditioning).
She regularly pursues continuing education to stay current with evolving research and treatment approaches, and applies that learning directly to patient care at Wellmax. Read more on her provider page.

How Wellmax Approaches Care Differently
Assessment First, Always
Many clinics start treatment on day one without a thorough assessment. Patients get ice, stim, and a generic exercise sheet before anyone has properly identified what is causing the problem. At Wellmax, the first visit is a 60 minute assessment. We test, we measure, we ask questions, and we build the treatment plan based on findings, not assumptions. The assessment is the most important session in the entire treatment program, and we treat it that way.
One-on-One, Every Session
Treatment at Wellmax is one-on-one care. Your session is built around you, with hands-on treatment led by your physiotherapist. This matters because treatment quality comes from hands-on skill, evidence-based practice and clinical reasoning. Our team’s expertise spans orthopaedic rehabilitation, musculoskeletal injuries, pelvic health, TMJ, vestibular rehabilitation and chronic pain, so the person treating you has seen your kind of problem many times before.
We Treat the Condition, Not the Symptom Location
Shoulder pain frequently involves the thoracic spine and shoulder blade mechanics. Knee pain often traces back to hip weakness. TMJ dysfunction overlaps with cervical spine dysfunction in the majority of cases. Chronic back pain involves nervous system sensitization as much as it involves the spine itself. Effective treatment requires assessing and addressing the whole picture, not just the spot that hurts. This is where thorough assessment and clinical experience make the difference.
Expert Care Throughout
Expert care throughout is a core principle at Wellmax. Your history, your progress, your goals, and the specific nuances of your condition are reassessed at every visit, with the same one-on-one care every time. Treatment builds progressively, with honest guidance on where you stand and a plan aimed at getting you moving pain-free and independent.
Goals and Timelines, Not Open-Ended Treatment
Every treatment plan at Wellmax has measurable goals and a projected timeline. Patients know what they are working toward, how progress will be measured, and when treatment is expected to end. If progress stalls, we investigate why and adjust the approach rather than repeating the same treatment hoping for a different result. The goal is always to get patients independent and confident, not to keep them coming back indefinitely.

Inside Our Oakville Clinic
Wellmax Physiotherapy is located at 1148 Winston Churchill Blvd, Unit B3, in the Winston Park Plaza on the Oakville-Mississauga border. The clinic is ground level with no stairs, free parking directly outside, and private treatment rooms for every session.
Privacy matters to us because it matters to patients. Pelvic health assessments, conversations about chronic pain and how it affects daily life, post-surgical rehabilitation after intimate procedures: these discussions happen better in a private room with a closed door, not behind a curtain in an open gym. Every patient at Wellmax gets a private room regardless of the condition being treated.
The clinic is open Monday through Friday 9am to 7pm, Saturdays 9am to 2pm, and Sundays 9am to 2pm by appointment. We offer same-day and next-day appointments when scheduling allows, and we accommodate early morning and evening slots for people who can’t take time off work.
Proudly Serving Oakville and South Mississauga
Wellmax serves a catchment area that spans both sides of Winston Churchill Boulevard. Our patients come from Clarkson, Clearview, Sheridan Park, Sheridan Homelands, Park Royal, Maple Grove, Eastlake, Lorne Park, Southdown, Falgarwood, and Iroquois Ridge South in Oakville, as well as south Mississauga, Erin Mills, and Streetsville.
We treat families with kids playing hockey at Joshua’s Creek Arenas, runners training along the Waterfront Trail and Rattray Marsh, tennis players from Ontario Racquet Club and Glen Abbey, gym members from GoodLife Fitness Royal Windsor, Orangetheory Fitness Clarkson, and F45 Training Clarkson, and workers from the Ford Oakville Assembly Plant, the Winston Park Drive office district, the Clarkson business district, and the Royal Windsor Drive manufacturing corridor.
This is a local clinic that exists to serve the community around it. Not a franchise. Not a chain. A clinic where the owner treats patients every day and the reputation is built one recovery at a time.
Insurance and Billing
We direct bill to most major extended health insurance providers. We also bill directly for WSIB (workplace injury) and MVA (motor vehicle accident) claims. For WSIB and MVA patients, there is no out-of-pocket cost, as treatment is fully covered. No referral is needed to book physiotherapy or massage therapy in Ontario. For detailed information about insurance coverage and what to expect, see our Insurance and Billing page.
Trusted by 2000+ Local Patients Since 2021
Our reputation is built on results. Here is what some of our patients have to say about their recovery at Wellmax.
“Doctors continued to gaslight me and after 2 years when the pain got unbearable, I finally went for physio. The pain immediately started getting better.”
“The Magician, that is the only way I can describe Dr. Gurmeet. After six months of constant pain, in less than a week my pain was reduced by 50%. Within two weeks it was practically gone.”

What Our Patients Say
HARPREET B.“Best Physiotherapy clinic. I am going there for my workplace injury and it’s a great experience. Physiotherapist and physio assistant are extremely knowledgeable and always make sure that you get the best treatment, Clinic is very neat and clean. Highly recommend this place!!!”
Ghanshyam S.“I had an excellent experience at Wellmax Physiotherapy for my ankle pain. Gurmeet, the physiotherapist, was very knowledgeable and took the time to understand my condition and create an effective treatment plan. She recommended shockwave therapy, which helped reduce my pain and improve my mobility significantly. Janvi and Manahil the Physiotherapy Assistant were also very friendly, professional, and supportive throughout my treatment sessions. The entire team made me feel comfortable and welcomed every time I visited. The clinic is clean, well-organized, and provides outstanding patient care. I highly recommend Wellmax Physiotherapy to anyone looking for effective treatment for physio and massage.”
Kevin O.“Look no further if you want the best physiotherapy clinic in Oakville. I was dealing with plantar fasciitis that made taking my first steps out of bed every morning absolutely agonizing. I had tried custom insoles and resting, but nothing worked permanently. Dhrushi assessed my foot mechanics and put together a great plan using shockwave therapy. I also saw Cynthia for deep tissue massage on my tight calf muscles. The combination of their treatments worked wonders. I am finally walking normally again. They are honest, professional, and do not pressure you into endless treatment packages.”
Robert K.“Wellmax is truly the best physiotherapy clinic in Oakville. I developed a bad case of tennis elbow from working with my hands, and my grip strength was completely gone. Dhrushi took her time during the initial visit to explain the healing process for tendons. My personalized plan included hands-on therapy, shockwave treatments, and a practical exercise routine I could easily do at home. The inflammation went down faster than I expected, and my arm feels strong again. The front desk staff is always welcoming, and my appointments always started right on time. Highly recommend this place to anyone in pain.”
Morenita Z.“I came to see Gurmeet and Dhrushi at wellmax after my thumb and wrist injury at work under wsib. They took time to assess and explain everything to me and time i started with wellmax, I am feeling so much better and pain is less. Gurmeet’s hands on technique and manual therapy is amazing and knowledgeable. I see big difference in my condition and movement. Clinic is very clean and very positive that makes me comfortable every time I come here. I truly appreciate work they do and recommend it everyone who is looking for real physio treatment and manual therapy.”
Amanda L.“I was searching for the best physiotherapy clinic in Oakville after a car accident, and this clinic exceeded my expectations. Dealing with whiplash and neck stiffness was overwhelming, and the insurance paperwork was stressing me out. The team at Wellmax made the entire process so smooth. They helped manage the MVA billing directly and focused entirely on my recovery. Gurmeet used manual therapy to reduce the tension in my neck, and the gentle exercises she prescribed helped me regain my mobility safely. They truly care about their patients and the facility is incredibly clean and modern.”
Verified Patient“Got rear-ended on the QEW near Winston Churchill and started having neck pain, headaches, and dizziness about three days later. I did not know where to start with insurance and treatment. Wellmax handled everything. They explained how the auto insurance coverage works in Ontario, did direct billing so I did not pay anything out of pocket, and started treatment the same week. Gurmeet treated my neck and the dizziness component separately because she said they needed different approaches. After about eight weeks I was back to normal. The whole process from first call to discharge was smooth and I never had to chase paperwork.”

What makes Wellmax different from other physiotherapy clinics in Oakville?+–
Three things patients consistently tell us set Wellmax apart. First, assessment thoroughness: initial appointments are 60 minutes and we assess the contributing factors beyond just the area of pain.

Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist at Wellmax?+–
No. Physiotherapy is a direct-access profession in Ontario, so you can book an assessment directly without a referral from a doctor or other healthcare provider. The same applies to massage therapy.
