STRONG Gym Physiotherapy Chiropractic Naturopathy and Massage

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Alex St. Pierre is a life saver. He was able to get me in on short notice and stayed in touch throughout the recovery. He is highly knowledgeable and flexible. I have already recommended him and Strong Gym to friends.

Expérience fantastique: Can’t say enough good about this gym & the people at it! Calum and Leticia are both awesome trainers, and the program they’ve built for me and helped me work through has made an incredibly positive impact on my life. They’ll learn, understand, and work around your limitations / injuries / etc and help guide you to whatever your ultimate goals are.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been seeing Alex for different injuries over the years and each time - he has helped me get back to feeling 100% and allowing me to continue doing all the sports and activities I love to do.

Expérience fantastique: Best of the best. STRONG is the gym that made me fall in love with strength training. Ari and the team are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and have truly transformed not only my body but my strength and overall well-being. After a year and a half of training here, I can’t imagine going anywhere else. If you’re looking for a place that genuinely cares about you and your goals, this is it.

Expérience fantastique: Alex is absolutely the best physiotherapist/chiropractor that I have ever met. He has always understood and fixed any of my pain issues in record time, not like some clinics that keep you coming back for endless treatments with little incremental improvement. He also has a wonderful demeanor and makes you feel comfortable from the moment you first meet him. Don't go anywhere else!

Expérience fantastique: I can’t recommend Jyoti enough for physiotherapy!!! She’s super attentive to what is going on in my life and with my body, and has been great at giving me exercises and treatment that will help me reach my personal lifestyle and fitness goals.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been working with Rainer at Strong and have been having a wonderful experience! He listens to my goals and plans my workouts accordingly, and is always open to discussing changes and answering my questions. Everyone I’ve met at the gym is fantastic, and the environnement is always fun and positive!

Expérience fantastique: Have been going to Emily for about a year now and I wouldn’t trust anyone else!! Such a great environment and so much knowledge and care. Working with Emily has been a game changer for my ability to run and to workout confidently without pain. She’s the best!

Expérience fantastique: I'm really happy with my experience at STRONG so far. The initial consultation was very through and a lot of attention and care was shown in making sure my health concerns were properly considered. My personal trainer Leticia is great. She's really encouraging and kind while also being knowledgeable.

Expérience fantastique: Emily K. has been a huge help in treating various issues (shoulder, back, elbow), after not having success with other therapists. Highly recommended.

Expérience fantastique: having a great experience going here for physio so far! emily has reduced my pain in every session.

Expérience fantastique: Couldn’t be happier with my personal training experience! Supportive, fun, challenging, but not at all intimidating.

Expérience fantastique: I recently joined STRONG, and the gym has a welcoming atmosphere, top-notch equipment, and a great community. Special shoutout to the amazing coaches I've worked with so far, Leticia and Rainer. If you’re looking for a gym with a personalized approach where you’ll feel supported and motivated, STRONG is it.

Expérience fantastique: Such a great, welcoming environment! If you're a beginner like me and not into bro-toxic-gym culture then this place is for you. I've never felt comfortable in a gym but now look forward to each of my training sessions and have never felt better! Can't say enough good things, check it out!

Expérience fantastique: Friendly staff. Clean gym. Understand and tailor to your goals. I’ve been working with Rainer and would certainly recommend

Expérience fantastique: I have been seeing Dr. Emily Kawaguchi since December for chiropractic care including soft tissue work, acupuncture, and tailor-made active care (exercise) plan. She has been so helpful in keeping me moving, reducing pain, and giving me a better understanding of my body's mechanics. She has a nonjudgmental, personable, and thorough approach through which she quickly gained a deep understanding of my limitations and lifestyle and has adeptly adjusted my care plan based on my shifting needs and capacities over time. Her support and encouragement have been essential in keeping me motivated through this experience navigating pain, weakness, and injury from an otherwise daunting lifestyle shift. I highly recommend her practice and the Strong team as a whole.

Expérience fantastique: I am a cyclist who has been hit by drivers. I was never a gym person, resistant to going. However my physio told me to go and a number of people said STRONG is the best gym around. I’ve been training with Zach for around 4 months now and……wow! I have become “that gym person.” I can’t believe how much stronger I am on the bike and how much better I feel in day to day life.

Expérience fantastique: I came to STRONG at dire desperation as most doctors & therapies weren't helping with my chronic neck/ upper back pain and right arm weakness. They all remained temporary fixes while what it needed most was guided strength training. To start off Calum's assessment was spot on, with my bad breathing habits being the issue; coming down from years of anxiety. Setting me up with Rob Calzetta was the best decision. He has been an anchor point to my physical health during series of health struggles caused from my rigorous desk job. Training with Rob since March 2024, 5 months in, twice a week, my pain of 16 years of career, minimized to barely any. Rob's creative application of practical knowledge is so vast, he is able to customize the workouts based on the instant needs of daily activities. It has improved my ability to throw hard balls at my dodgeball leagues, being able to sit for long hours for work and heck zero neck pain waking up. And yes it was that bad that sleep was an issue. On Rob's recommendation I have been seen Jyoti Mann who is a phenomenal Physiotherapist who specializes on one of the only treatment that is the most effective on me that is dry needling. And of course homework active stretches. Currently working with Naturopath Dr. Natasha Irons to fix my internal organ issues to get back on a full health track, all credit to Rob as well. To add the 2 sessions I had with Leticia Ramirez were quite helpful with Rob's plan and her touch of magic helped with relieving seasonal winter pains. All the top experts being part of STRONG gives a hands-on advantage of being able to collaborate their expertise and customize the exercise to my exact body/ health requirements. As a result I am healing twice as fast. Trust their expertise on the frequency of treatment and you wont be disappointed. Once you are 99% you got pain ain't none. STRONG has become a metaphor for my body as I heal with their therapists and trainers acting as my organs and muscles. Eternally grateful to them for keeping me powering through. PS. If they ever introduce a smoothie bar + meditation classes am setting up camp right outside.

Expérience fantastique: I've had an amazing experience with Jyoti at Strong. Since I started seeing her, I've had significant improvements in my ankle mobility. She’s knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cares about her clients' progress. Highly recommend Jyoti for anyone in need of a great physiotherapist!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been coming to STRONG for years. My husband is also a client, as are my daughter, sister, brother-in-law, niece and nephew. If that’s not a ringing endorsement for Alex and team, I don’t know what is. We are all sports people and we have all manner of injuries that require attention. Alex is an amazing physio/chiro/human who is simply magic at fixing us!

Expérience fantastique: Great personal training gym! I started with Coach Ari (before the pandemic!) for motivation and accountability and stayed for the support and strong results. Coach Sam is also the best . I have seen chiro Alex to fix chronic neck/shoulder and knee problems (I’m now a fan of acupuncture!). Naturopath Nastasia is so knowledgeable and helped me through post-antibiotic upset. Having a team approach is a huge benefit. The new space is beautiful and bright. This gym has made such a positive change in my life.

Expérience fantastique: The team at Strong really knows their stuff! I have been working with Calum as my personal trainer and found him to be knowledgeable, motivating and very easy to deal with. Calum spent time to understand my current level of fitness, my goals and the time I had available. He was able to put together a custom plan for me that included personal training, but also what activities I should be doing on my own time, which I found very helpful. Calum was also able to diagnose various ailments associated with my back and knees and come up with exercises that yielded results within less than a week. I highly recommend Calum and his team!

Expérience fantastique: STRONG is the best gym I've ever been to! They welcomed me with open arms, listen to what my goals are and work with me to make those a reality. Yes I work hard, but I also have fun doing it!

Expérience fantastique: Awesome place!! Inclusive for everybody and every level! Always a fun place to be. Everyone there really cares about their clients.

Expérience fantastique: if you are serious about getting good results. This is the place to be

Expérience fantastique: Calum was very helpful with our first consultation. The new location is shaping up!

Expérience fantastique: Best gym, best staff. Ari, Rainer, Callum and the rest; will help you achieve your fitness goals.

Expérience fantastique: STRONG is such a reliable one stop shop. For anyone dealing with chronic pain/rehab issues, working out can be difficult/intimidating but the team here is super well rounded and flexible in working with you and creating tailored workout and treatment plans. I've been working with Alex and Zach and they've been so supportive and helpful, and I'm always excited to come in and train! The rest of the team is also very welcoming and fun to be around.

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Emily Kawaguchi is awesome! I was suffering from a painful shoulder muscle injury that was really limiting my daily activities. After just a few visits, I started to notice a significant improvement. She is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about her patients. Dr. Kawaguchi explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend her!

Expérience fantastique: Calum is a super knowledgeable trainer, who challenges even those of us who have been lifting for years. Constantly pushes you, but is also just a great guy. The space is awesome and the vibes are top notch. Definitely recommend.

Expérience fantastique: I love Strong! I used to feel intimidated about personal training and focusing on my health, but Strong was welcoming right off the bat and has transformed my comfort with and approach to a healthy lifestyle. So far I’ve worked with Rainer, Callum, and Staz, and I would highly recommend working with any of them. Very approachable and knowledgeable! Training with Rainer the Trainer is like working out with a buddy (who knows a lot about fitness) 10/10 :)

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been coming to Strong for a couple months now to see Jyoti, their physiotherapist. Jyoti is great at what she does, encouraging & supportive. She strikes a great balance between pushing me to get stronger while helping me listen to my body to avoid injuries, and provides detailed plans so that even a gym-newbie like me can feel comfortable taking charge of my goals.

Expérience fantastique: I recently had the pleasure of being treated by Alex for my shoulder AC joint injury. In just three sessions, Alex worked wonders. The treatment was quick and incredibly effective. I am amazed at how well my shoulder feels now. Highly recommend Alex for anyone needing physiotherapy!

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Emily Kawaguchi is an incredible practitioner. I’ve had a lot of success remedying my back pain and posture with her help!

Expérience fantastique: I wanted to get strong, and Strong has been the best! I work with Rob and adore him. He pushes me so we can meet my goals, but also forces me to rest and relax when necessary. A great guide. While it is an amazing gym with amazing coaches and clients, the thing I love most is that it is an inviting, open and supportive environment. Everyone cheers each other on. The owners know everyone's name. You feel like it's a second family. Additionally, when doing the intake process (which was the most thorough I have ever experienced), their approach to consent (e.g. for taking body measurements) and creating a comfortable experience was incredible. So much so that I even wrote them after to let them know how great that was. I highly recommend this gym. I am excited to keep working with them through the years.

Expérience fantastique: True clinicians. Always therapeutic.

Expérience fantastique: Trainning is never easy for a non professional but these guys make it seem like piece of cake!! Sam, Lety, Calum & Jonah are great partners to make you achieve your goals!! Thank you Natasia for the great recommendation!!

Expérience fantastique: I've been working with Alex for close to a decade now and he has always gone above and beyond when it comes to my care. In the last few months he's helped me up my figure skating game so that I could accomplish lifelong goals and to help me keep up with the kids on the ice.

Expérience fantastique: Dr Alex St Pierre is the most effective Chiro/Physio I have ever used. His experience and knowledge mean I need only visit him a few times to feel back to normal and ready to push hard again. Highly recommend to everyone I know.

Expérience fantastique: I cannot recommend STRONG enough. A welcoming and fun place to be, I felt at home from my first assessment. My experience at STRONG has been empowering and truly transformational! Huge thanks and high fives to Rainer for being such a stellar trainer.

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Emily Kawaguchi has helped treat me so far beyond the normal scope of a chiropractor. Her skills certainly cross over into sports medicine and physio. After tearing my acl a third time and experiencing severe hip pain as a long term result of my knee injuries from competitive sports, I’ve spent several years looking for doctors who could help alleviate pain and provide me a treatment plan without success (including team Canada doctors and physicians). Assuming I was going in for an alignment as a quick treat to myself to use my work benefits, instead Dr. Kawaguchi assessed me very holistically within an hour. Not only was she able to communicate her thoughts on a diagnosis but her treatment plan including muscle massage, and acupuncture has dramatically improved my state. I was at a point where everyday I was experiencing my hip locking with severe pain to where I wanted to cry getting up from my desk at work to now being able to adjust myself out of the pain if not Avoid the injury altogether after working with Dr Kawaguchi for only a few weeks. She is an absolute savior and I am very confident I am well on my way to healthy mobility soon. As an athlete herself, she is incredibly empathetic and will certainly change your life.

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Alex is masterful. He's attentive- listens to what you are saying about your injury and he treats not only the injury, but the surrounding affected joints and muscles. He also gives suggestions for how you heal faster and avoid the injury in the future. If he tells you to come back- you know it's bc you need it- not just bc he wants another booking. He has your health as his top priority. Highly recommend

Expérience fantastique: Great gym with fantastic trainers!

Expérience fantastique: I couldn't be happier with my experience at Strong. Rob and Zach have been instrumental in making my fitness journey rewarding. Their dedication, constant encouragement, and personalized attention have been the driving force behind my progress. From tailoring exercise routines to offering invaluable insights on nutrition and recovery, their expertise has not only enabled me to push my limits every time I step into the gym but has also instilled in me a newfound confidence and determination. As someone who felt very uncomfortable in gym environments, I feel incredibly at ease at Strong. The friendly atmosphere created by the staff makes every visit enjoyable. I joined Strong because I wanted to prioritize my health and build strength, and in just a few weeks, I've noticed significant progress towards achieving my goals. It's incredibly motivating to witness myself evolving with every workout. Wholeheartedly recommend Strong to anyone starting their fitness journey.

Expérience fantastique: I walked heavily up the stairs to Dr. Emily Kawaguchi's office at STRONG, unaware of how much lighter my steps would feel when I descended shortly afterward. Dr. Kawaguchi possesses a remarkable knack for pinpointing the precise muscle at fault. She skillfully integrates her expertise in chiropractic care, acupuncture, and physiotherapy to address various ailments effectively. Having had less-than-stellar experiences with other chiropractors in the past, I was initially apprehensive. However, Dr. Kawaguchi quickly alleviated all my doubts with her thorough and holistic approach to enhancing post-surgical recovery.

Expérience fantastique: I started seeing Dr. Emily Kawaguchi (chiropractor) and Zach McKenna (personal trainer) after suffering a lower back injury following my first marathon. Before joining the gym, I was worried I wouldn't be able to run long distances again. Over time, however, Emily and Zach gave me increasingly ambitious exercises that helped rebuild my strength and train my muscles to avoid succumbing to another injury. Four months later, I am delighted by the results. Emily, Zach, and the entire staff at STRONG are friendly, thorough, and knowledgeable. I have since regained confidence in my running, I'm steadily increasing my distances, and I've even signed up for my next marathon. Would recommend STRONG to anyone looking for an intimate, personalized training program with great results.

Expérience fantastique: Emily is amazing! Not only is she fantastic at what she does, which is basically fix any muscle or joint problem I have ever had but she is also an awesome person to talk to about anything life or fitness. Super down to earth, easy to talk to, easy to schedule an appointment. She really helps you understand the issues and plans to actually fix the issues rather than keep them at bay. Can’t recommend enough!

Expérience fantastique: Great gym. It's small - but has everything you need. A lot of personal training happening while we are there. No attitude. Very friendly staff. From the initial consult to the workouts, everything has been customized based on our goals and abilities. My husband and I do semi-privates. We each have our own physical challenges and sought weight training to help get stronger, with a goal to improve our golf game. Calum Shaw has been great from the start. He's a positive, down to earth trainer who pushes you without pushing you. He is very knowledgeable about the body, and gives suggestions outside of the gym to help with your goals - a 360-degree approach (like physio, massage, breathing, naturopath). Results wise, after 4-ish months, we are seeing an improvement in our strength - both on and off the golf course. While we used to be sore and stiff after walking 18-rounds, we are now surprisingly not! Major win! Thanks Calum!

Expérience fantastique: I injured my lower back trying to lift and maneuver a king size mattress and was barely able to walk to my car. Normally I walk 10 km a day. Felt very down and didn’t feel any improvement for 5 months of just OTC pain killers and Robax. Booked an appointment with Jyoti and she listened to me. My GP just kept telling me to keep exercising, which was agony to move. Jyoti thoroughly assessed me and created a simple plan and I was on the way to getting back to normal. It’s been 3 months and I walked 13 km again. I’m getting better and stronger each day and have new very simple exercises to do according to Jyoti’s ongoing assessments. I think I’ll be back to my normal mobility this summer. Could be quicker but I don’t always do my exercises and I know that slows my progress. Jyoti is a very knowledgeable and really zeros in on the problem. It’s great to be heard and understood. Sometimes there’s a not so obvious issue that is causing trouble. Jyoti quickly picks up on this and can correct A new movement or suggestion for what not to do. Very nice location with parking Should mention I’m nearly 62 and not an athlete but like walking everywhere I can. So this injury was a shock to my normal lifestyle. I’ll check back in a couple months for updates

Expérience fantastique: Such a great place! Super welcoming, kind and professional staff. I have physio with Jyoti and she is a rockstar, she has helped so much with my rehabilitation on my injury and she is also just such a warm inviting human! Would totally recommend her to anyone looking for a new Physiotherapist.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been going to STRONG for a while and getting Jyoti to help me with some PT work. She’s been very helpful in rehabbing my body and getting me out of pain and active again. I would recommend Jyoti and STRONG’s services to anyone interested!

Expérience fantastique: I couldn’t recommend this place more, there isn’t a gym in the city that even comes close in quality. Ari and Callum run a tight ship, their equipment and facilities are top notch. My trainer Zach is impressively knowledgeable, patient, and expertly attentive to my progress. What’s most special is the community that everyone at Strong really makes an effort to foster which in my opinion doesn’t exist anywhere else in Toronto.

Expérience fantastique: I have been working with jyoti to help me recover from a multi ligament tear in my knee and I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and expertise provided by her. From the moment I stepped into STRONG, I felt reassured by the professionalism and empathy exhibited by the entire team. Jyoti not only possessed a deep understanding of the complexities of my injury but also demonstrated a genuine commitment to my well-being throughout every session. The rehabilitation process was tailored to my specific needs and limitations, ensuring a gradual yet steady progression towards recovery. Each session was meticulously planned, incorporating a variety of exercises and techniques aimed at improving strength, flexibility, and stability in my knee joint. What truly stood out was the patience and encouragement provided by Jyoti. Despite the challenges along the way, she has remained unwavering in the support, motivating me to push through discomfort and achieve milestones I once thought were unattainable. I recommend Jyoti to anyone seeking comprehensive and personalized care for injuries.

Expérience fantastique: For over 2 years I have suffered from a chronic ankle pain and decided to try Physiotherapy after many failed attempts to get care through family doctor. I was seen by Jyoti who was incredibly professional and enthusiastic. Within a couple of weeks I was already seeing results. I haven't thought about my ankle in a few weeks because the pain is now completely gone, and even if returns I now know the root cause and have the tools to address it. I just wish I had done this sooner. STRONG-ly recommend!

Expérience fantastique: After a third acl tear from years of competitive sports, I’d been struggling to find gyms I could get in good workouts that supported my limited movements. I went in for a free consultation and after a few sessions with Calum, I have been truly enjoying the experience. We’ve been working on retraining muscle memory to move in healthier ways and it feels so good to be lifting again with no pain or swelling. I've met a few other trainers and the gym itself has a very comforting community vibe and I love it! It’s WORK when I’m there but it’s the best part of my day!

Expérience fantastique: From the minute I walked in the door I knew the experience would be different from any other "gym/trainer" experience I have had to date, and it really was. Everyone I came in contact with was friendly and super approachable. The gym itself was not overwhelming, and wasn't filled to the brim with tank top wearing bros, grunting and lifting weights. It was a variety of folks smiling and working really hard. As a woman who is often intimidated walking into classic lifting spaces, I felt completely welcome and at ease. I also felt capital "S" smart after my session with Calum. I am no slouch in the "things I know about my body" department as a chronic pain purveyor, but I feel like Calum was able to pinpoint and address several issues during our session. He was knowledgeable, hilarious, and had a zero bullsh*t approach, which I love. After listening to me meander through my history and goals, he took me through some targeted exercises that left me wondering, one, where he had been all my life, and two, without my normal pain shadow. I genuinely felt like he just wanted me to feel great. The whole experience was incredible, there was no hard sell, and our "get to know you" session was free. The bottom line: I would 10/10 recommend. While I'm still in the early stages of my time with Strong Gym, if my future experiences are even half as helpful or delightful, I will be more than satisfied. I wish I would have come across them sooner, and am a brand new super fan.

Expérience fantastique: Highly recommend the gym and team at Strong! A welcoming, comfortable environment and an awesome workout

Expérience fantastique: If you have any anxiety or concern around the gym and feeling out of place, go here! The people (trainers, staff, clients alike) here are welcoming, not intimidating at all, and supportive of your needs to feel comfortable. Big fan of my trainer Jonah and had an great experience with Alex when dealing with back pain.

Expérience fantastique: Alex has been by far the best chiropractor I've ever seen! I was originally seeing a physiotherapist for my back who never seemed quite capable of getting to the root cause of my issues. As soon as I started seeing Alex, his ability to look at problems holistically across the body, his consideration to take the time to really understand my feedback, and his patience to address all my questions and ensure I had a thorough understanding has made all the difference in the world. My back pain is completely gone! He is always willing to go above and beyond for his clients and makes sure there's a focus on sustainability which has been the most impactful parts of his treatments. I 100% will always recommend Alex to anyone who needs some help. I even recommended my own boyfriend start seeing him as well!

Expérience fantastique: I live in New York and had the pleasure of working out at Strong on a recent visit to Toronto. Calum was amazing, fun to workout with and super motivating. Our hour session together helped me get out of a fitness funk. I realized I've going to random workout classes without the individual care needed to get something out of it. Strong provided that 1-on-1 attention that ensures you get the most out of your workout and time. I will be back!

Expérience fantastique: Really great experience with STRONG. The team are highly knowledgable, friendly, and unpretentious. Zero "gym-bro" energy. Everyone I encountered made me feel totally welcome and comfortable as a fitness newbie with some anxiety about signing up. I actually enjoy going to the gym now. Fees feel very fair for the level of flexibility and personalized service they provide. Shoutout to Sam for being a great trainer

Expérience fantastique: Love working out at Strong! I’ve worked with a couple people there and they’re very knowledgeable and help push me to my limits.

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Alex St. Pierre listens, TRULY listens! His is not a one-size-fits-all approach. After a thorough exam he tailors exercises that suit the individual, and then prescribes a recommended number of repetitions and days to perform them. There are also follow-up emails. Refreshing! Feedback is encouraged to make sure that doctor and patient are in sync. If an exercise needs to be tweaked, he does that, sometimes via video. The physical work he has done with me has given me more flexibility and brought me relief. For the first time in five years, I feel as though someone is offering a targeted approach, and I am finally feeling some relief from chronic pain.

Expérience fantastique: I cannot recommend Strong enough. After trying multiple other training options, this is the first time that I feel like im finally making progress and am at a place that I can stay at forever. To be clear, I am not someone who is in shape or someone who would ever consider going to a gym. The location is killer, the environment is awesome, machines are top notch and most important the coaches are incredibly friendly, knowledgable and willing. Calum, the owner, is 1 in a million, super personable, always wanting to improve systems/ your experience. Thanks a million!

Expérience fantastique: I have been working out at Strong with Rob for about 2 months now. I went there because I wanted to change up my fitness routine and get more comfortable with barbell lifting. I can honestly say I've been making a lot of progress in a short period of time and remained injury-free. Rob is a great trainer and pushes me but not so much so that I get hurt but enough so that I make steady progress week on week. It certainly isn't cheap but you get what you pay for.

Expérience fantastique: Alex and the team at strong are a great group of clinicians who provide a top notch service. They are consummate professionals who make you feel welcome & take a collaborative approach to your needs. Highly recommend, especially if this is your first go at chiropractic or physiotherapy. Thanks for keeping me strong over the 10+ years!

Expérience fantastique: Working with Jyoti has had such a positive impact on my recovery and I’m so glad to have to found a fantastic physiotherapist in the area. I highly recommend Jyoti and Strong for the quality service they provide.

Expérience fantastique: This is by far my most favourite gym I’ve found in Toronto. The coaches are so inspiring & caring. It’s such a wonderful community of likeminded people who want to get strong & maintain a healthy, happy lifestyle. I’m so grateful for Strong.

Expérience fantastique: I had a few sessions with Jyoti and she not only helped me understand what the issue that I was having was, but how to properly take care of it and get it stronger so I can be back on my feet ASAP. Would highly recommend physio with Dr Jyoti Mann!

Expérience fantastique: I had the pleasure of working with Jyoti Mann as my physiotherapist for the past month, addressing hip joint pain. Her expertise and approach made the sessions effective, and her easygoing demeanor created a comfortable environment. I highly recommend Jyoti for her excellent assistance and positive impact on my rehabilitation. Thank you!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing place (to be sung to the hymn “Amazing Grace”.) I think my trainer wants to kill me, but I hired him for the job. Highlight of my week. 10/10

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been training with John for a year and half and it's been a great experience. I’ve seen big improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall muscle tone. After years of working office jobs, it definitely took a toll on my body, and started limiting what I could do. Going into my 30s, I really wanted to focus on building my strength and finding the fun in working out so it wasn’t something I had to do but that I wanted to. John is very welcoming and encouraging in the gym space. He’s adaptable to any injuries, great at making modifications, and modelling/explaining the correct form and technique for each exercise. John is great at gently pushing me to try new things and reach new goals. He always infuses some humour into the workouts which I always appreciate. He knows how to match his client’s energy to help them feel at ease and succeed.

Expérience fantastique: Good place- flexible, dog friendly as a bonus and good people!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been working out at Strong for just over a year, and I’m so glad that I joined this personal training gym. It’s an incredibly fun and welcoming space to work out, and I truly look forward to the days that I get to spend time here. Before joining Strong, I always felt really awkward while working out on my own. I was unsure of what I was doing, I lacked confidence, and I was getting frustrated with my lack of progress. My personal training sessions with John have been life-changing. It has felt amazing to get stronger over the past 12 months. I could never have imagined myself doing deadlifts and bench presses, but John patiently taught me. We gradually increased the weights, and he encouraged me to keep pushing myself. I’ve learned some amazing exercise skills and techniques that will benefit me for life. Plus, John is just a lot of fun to talk to between sets! I can’t thank John enough for everything he’s done for me.

Expérience fantastique: Went here before my 2 knee replacements and then went for physiotherapy after. I can’t say enough about how much Strong has helped in my recovery. All of the trainers I have worked with have been knowledgeable, listened to my input and most of all - they make working out fun !! I’m 63 and out of shape but I’ve never felt embarrassed or self conscious at Strong. I highly recommend this gym for anybody wanting to work out with a trainer or help recover from injuries or operations !! Just try it once and you’ll see what I mean !

Expérience fantastique: Great spot, great staff, very reasonably priced. Excellent if you’re looking for someone to work around your schedule and make life easier

Expérience fantastique: I can't say enough good things about Strong Gym and their exceptional staff. The coaches, especially Ari, are incredibly knowledgeable and have helped me achieve my fitness goals. Jyoti, the physiotherapist, played a crucial role in my recovery when I injured my back. Her expertise and guidance were instrumental in getting me back on my feet. The dedication of the entire team at Strong Gym is truly commendable. I highly recommend this gym for anyone looking to improve their fitness and receive top-notch care. Absolute Legends!

Expérience fantastique: I've been training and rehabbing at Strong. for 5 months and my experience has been exceptional. The team and how they work together for their clients is amazing. Sam J. has been a wonderful trainer, his programming is always thoughtful and targeted to my needs, he's fun, friendly and encouraging. He's helped me achieve my strength goals while rehabbing my adductor and shoulder one week at time. I love going to my workouts for the exercise and the chats. Alex St. Pierre has been the absolute BEST chiropractor I have ever been to and the only practitioner who has been able to solve my "bad" shoulder in the past 4 years. I've seen a handful of chiro's, physios, trainers etc., and no one has been able to do anything permanent. Within the first session I already saw improvements and now at session 4, my shoulder is almost back to new. Combined with the weekly work I am doing in my training sessions, I feel great. I would never hesitate to go back to Strong. if I have another injury or training plateau to work through. I appreciate everything they have done for me.

Expérience fantastique: I have been getting treatment from Alex for many years. He takes a great approach to gaining understanding of what the underlying symptoms are and providing specific and varied treatments to best address the symptoms and provide positive long term result. Would definitely recommend!!

Expérience fantastique: An amazing gym. I do training with Rob and he's been great. Also visited Jyoti for physical therapy and she was excellent.

Expérience fantastique: Coach Ari is THE best! I've been working with him for almost two years and have seen amazing improvements. He knows just how to push you while still having fun. Love Strong Gym so much!

Expérience fantastique: I love working with Coach Ari @ STRONG. He came highly recommended by a good friend and I could immediately see why. From day-1, he's worked to build a training routine that pushes, educates, and encourages me all while making it fun. In fact, all of the staff at the gym have a great mix of positivity, enthusiasm, and dedication. I happily recommend STRONG to anyone looking to improve their fitness and general wellbeing.

Expérience fantastique: During the pandemic, I was feeling so out of shape and exhausted. I decided to give STRONG a try. I had an online consultation with Calum who was so welcoming and knew just which trainer would be the right fit for my personal needs. I am thrilled to still be working out a few years later with the wonderful and knowledgeable Meagan. I have so many aches and pains, and I feel like I've got a trainer and a physiotherapist wrapped into one person. It saves me a lot of time working out online and I feel with her razor sharp eyes and her encouraging words, I'm still getting a full fletched workout. I love how she's able to adapt, depending on what's going on with my body. She's always able to modify because she's has a wealth of various exercises at her fingertips! She adjusts my posture and builds on each exercise each week. I feel like I'm getting stronger, more toned, and avoiding injuries that I had in the past. I would not hesitate to work out at Strong, either in person or online. They truly have that personal touch!

Expérience fantastique: Emily helped me with a foot injury I developed while running. She diagnosed the problem right away and was able to fix it in only a few sessions. She understood that I did not want to stop running and gave me warm-ups/exercises I could do at home; this helped me avoid re-injuring my foot. Would highly recommend.

Expérience fantastique: I had spent over 13 years at my previous gym, then immediately upon leaving I tried two new ones. Neither felt like my next “forever gym”. In some ways, they were just a bit sterile and formulaic. I knew something was missing. I remember sitting down with Ari, one of the owners of Strong back last February. We were trying to decide which trainer I should try. He said, “I think Meagan would be a good fit… she’s kind of quirky but I think you’ll like her”. Well, 8 months later I can confirm that Meagan is a phenomenal trainer as well as a lovely person… and yes, a bit quirky but in a very good way. In the last 8 months I’ve been going to Strong 3x per week and I truly love it. Other reviews mention how friendly the people are and without exception this is a great team of people. And I have learned so much in the past year about my body, my strengths as well as my weaknesses. Having personal training is not for the faint of heart or the faint of wallet. If you’re the sort of person that isn’t looking for the average “cookie cutter” gym I can whole heartedly recommend Strong Toronto. It may in fact be your “forever gym”, I know it’s mine.

Expérience fantastique: Great training space. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Wide range of equipment and never too crowded.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been working out with Zach at Strong for over a year and am so thankful for the care he’s put into my workouts. Because of previous physical ailments and injuries he’s tailored my workouts. Am happy to say I’m getting stronger without triggering these previous injuries. I’ve learned a lot about myself and the community at Strong is so encouraging!

Expérience fantastique: Training at strong over the past few years has been the best part of my week usually :) my trainer is amazing and I learn something new every training session. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is always positive. Love love love STRONG!

Expérience fantastique: I’ve known the owners of the gym for a few years now and something happened to me this past year that robbed me of my mobility and strength. I first met with one of their chiropractors (Emily) who had set me up with a fairly easy to follow but excellent program to get my muscles working again and after meeting with her for about over a month I started getting back into Personal Training with Sam, one of the personal trainers there. I think the best quality of a Trainer is that they understand your limits and make you challenge them. A month ago I had to use a resistance band and inclined blocks to do an assisted squat. Thanks to Sam’s dedication to my wellness I can do a squat fully unassisted and we’re ready to start adding weight onto my squat as well. I feel stronger (pun intended) everyday thanks to the work we’ve put in. And finally everyone I’ve met here is so friendly. They’re all here to see you succeed no matter what walk of life you’re from and they’re also there to let you know if you’re wrong. If you were considering even a consult with them I’d say go for it. I promise you won’t regret it.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been seeing Emily for some back pain and she’s been working wonders! She’s very thorough and has been helping me understand where the problems are stemming from and provides exercises that I can do at home. She’s also a very sweet and makes the whole process enjoyable! Highly recommend Emily :) I’ve also been doing some personal training with Sam and have been feeling amazing! I feel much more comfortable in the gym and I love how I’m feeling lately. Overall great energy at Strong and everyone is very welcoming!

Expérience fantastique: I have been working with Emily and she has been absolutely fantastic. Super conscientious and knowledgeable. She creates a very welcoming environment, even for those who may be nervous coming to a new clinic. She truly works her hardest to make sure you leave every session feeling your best. I recommend her to everyone!

Expérience fantastique: I saw Dr. Emily Kawaguchi for a sports-related injury in my shoulder. Emily was extremely knowledgeable and effective throughout the whole process: diagnosing the exact source of my injury, various treatments (deep tissue massage, acupuncture, stretching, etc). and prevention through at-home exercises. My shoulder has never felt better and I really appreciated Emily's friendly approach.

Expérience fantastique: I happened to be in Toronto with ongoing shoulder pain after months of trying to stretch/roll it out on my own, or massages that gave only temporary relief. I'm also super stiff and my tense muscles do not give, but Dr. Emily Kawaguchi managed to unlock the problem while understanding and respecting my parameters when it comes to chiropractic work. With one session, I was 80% on track, and the second session freed my shoulder/arm back to normal. Thank you Dr. Emily!

Expérience fantastique: Emily has been incredible these past few years. I love the entire strong team but after injuring my back a few years ago Emily really helped in ways I didn’t think possible. She is relaxed, informative and a joy to be around. If you are considering Emily or any of the strong team you will not be disappointed.

Expérience fantastique: I have been working with Emily for discomfort in my upper back, especially in my traps. I work a desk job and was starting to feel the effects of that. Emily helped me a lot through her treatments (tissue work, adjustments, and acupuncture) as well as exercises to work on in my own time, and advice on how to change my desk set up to avoid neck pain. I would say she is excellent at what she does because she not only treats her clients but she works with them and educates them.

Expérience fantastique: I have been going to Emily for my aching hip. She is incredibly knowledgable about the body and I trust her with providing me with the care and after care for my hip. She started my consultation with a quick chat about my injury. She had me do a couple of exercises to pinpoint the source of my injury and if I am doing any exercises wrong to aggravate the injury. After 2 sessions, my hip felt so much better. With my care and after care stretches, I truly believe my hip will be back to normal soon. I recommend Emily for all your chiropractic needs.

Expérience fantastique: Emily is amazing at what she does! I started seeing Emily with issues with my right elbow that has been holding me back from progressing/increasing the load on various upper body exercises. Emily is very attentive, fun, and importantly and was able to find solutions and an active care routine that work for me. She is also very dependable and has been great at checking in with me on my progress between sessions. This has been a great experience and I highly recommend for anyone that is looking for a friendly and knowledgeable chiropractor!

Expérience fantastique: What a pleasant surprise, meeting staff and viewing a facility that was more about people culture than gym culture! I was made to feel immediately comfortable and found self-motivation much easier after seeing what I was fully capable of. Shoutout to Calum who did my initial intake and was very knowledgeable. And thanks to Sam who challenged me to push through. A special shoutout to Jyoti, the physiotherapist who helped diagnose my injury and keep me motivated on my journey to better health!

Expérience fantastique: Alex has been working with my entire family for years. He’s personable and easy to talk to, helps us to understand root causes of injuries so we can avoid for future, and prescribes easy—to follow exercises for continuing rehab at home. Working with Alex has enabled us all to improve our strength training in the gym.

Expérience fantastique: When I got there I had too much pain in my back and sciatica but after 2 sessions of physiotherapy with amazing Dr.Emily I got relief from that bad pain This team is amazing Dr. Emily and Dr. Alex Thanks so much Right now I will continue my exercises and physiotherapy to get much stronger
