We believe in effective care for all.
Have you felt dismissed or have been denied treatment by a healthcare provider because your condition is “too complex”? Yeah, you won’t find that here.
We exist BECAUSE of the lack of care we have witnessed and experienced.
Our founder, Jessica has suffered from a chronic neurologic illness since childhood, and has had her symptoms dismissed her entire life. She is not alone. Our patients have described being denied treatment due to providers not being knowledgeable in their conditions, clinic spaces not being accessible, and a lack of support from their previous providers. This is wrong. And Same Stars Wellness was founded to ensure that everyone in Calgary has access to effective care - no matter their condition or age.
We focus on conditions you may not associate with Massage Therapy, Acupuncture and Occupational Therapy such as chronic pain, neuromotor and neuromuscular disorders, pediatric care and oncology. If you are looking for a group of therapists who are dedicated to supporting you - you’re home.
Our Core Values
We pride ourselves on setting ourselves apart from your average Massage Therapists, Acupuncturists and Occupational Therapists. Our careers are not just “jobs” to us, and our patients are not just another case. Effective care is our passion, and people are our purpose.
WE ARE COMMITTED
We rise above the rest because we are different, and we lead by example. We set our bar high because we know that we will deliver. We embrace only the highest standards of care and integrity. We offer excellence in practice through our continuous learning from only the best. We reject false promises, poor practices, unqualified practitioners, and untested treatments. We have no room for care that does not work. Our commitment to you is compassion, respect, and the most ethical, current and innovative evidence-based care.
WE LISTEN
We know how it feels not to be heard, so know that your voice is everything to us. We take time before each treatment to review your progress and truly listen to how your condition is affecting your life. We can play an advisory role in complex cases and embrace all the partners you want involved in your care. We will hear you, and ensure you are heard by your other care providers.
WE WILL FIGHT FOR YOU
We offer a collaborative approach to patient support through open dialogue with you and your healthcare providers. We will advocate for you and help you to advocate for yourself. We will continue to fight for better standards of care for all Albertans.
WE ARE INCLUSIVE
We have a place for you, regardless of your condition, and promise accessibility and inclusivity every step of the way. Our approach to your care is complete; you will find your ideal treatment plan with us and the wellness you seek and deserve. We promise to never give up on you and will fight to break down the barriers to ensure better health care in a better world.
WE ARE RESULTS DRIVEN
We pride ourselves on providing the best care possible, and only offer treatments proved in research and application. We will not accept that pain or restricted mobility should be your “new normal”. We will have honest conversations about your treatment options and work with you to determine which treatment provides the results you deserve. Our relationship with you is essential to us and built on collaboration, respect, honesty, and trust.
