Testimonials

  • Chris H.

    I was referred to Marcel and was very happy with his work. He is a good listener and gave me a great rehab routine to do at home. He also set me up on a great program when I told him I wanted to see a trainer for my rehab. My injury feels 100% better! Thanks Marcel!

  • Bhavin G.

    Justin Mazzei is my trusted physiotherapist who really takes time to understand your routine, history of your active lifestyle and suggests treatment based on that. He is very knowledgeable about various treatments and works on providing active mobility based treatment advice instead of quick fixes. He also follows up to check on your progress and recommends changes if needed. Highly recommend this place.

  • Danial

    WOW!!! Easily the best experience I’ve had at physio. A month ago I came in with a recovering dislocated shoulder, and now I feel stronger than ever! I highly recommend Marcel for all of your physiotherapy needs. His exercises and rehab regimen really made all the difference. Thank you Marcel!

  • Annette O.

    I recommend Justin Mazzei. I've been seeing Justin to treat a running related hamstring injury, and am seeing progress after several months of trying to solve the problem on my own. I wish I hadn't waited so long. Justin is an intuitive listener, always positive in his approach, and his exercises are challenging, functional and focused. Thank you Justin

  • Tracy H.

    I came to Marcel to help fix my back which he did. I continue to go to Marcel to keep my back moving and now I go to Marcel to help with the hip. He’s been very good about keeping my body moving.

  • Paola M.

    Working with Marcel (whom I've been working with for years) and the Forza Physiotherapy has been a game changer when it comes to rehabilitating my knee. Following my ACL reconstructive surgery, my knee strength was never quite the same. I found myself experiencing chronic knee pain which prohibited me from fully enjoying my sports and hobbies.
    With the help of Marcel and the knowledge he's shared, I've strengthened not only my knees but my body as a whole. I no longer have to wear a knee brace or knee sleeves as much as I used to. I've been able to really enjoy snowboarding, golf, weightlifting, volleyball, hiking, and all my other hobbies with less worry about my knee giving in.

  • Michelle G.

    Justin was an absolute legend. He worked with me to constantly adjust the treatment plan to meet my needs and help me reach my goals, and made every visit enjoyable. Stoked to say I'm back running again in time for the sunny weather. Thanks so much, Justin!

  • Jay Z.

    Very knowledgeable, great patience and positive communication skills. Marcel helped me both mentally and physically in my journey to recovery from my ankle/knee injury!

  • Viva C.

    ACL reconstruction (quadricep graft) - Physio Justin Mazzei - Now 8 weeks post op... this review was due. A very genuine, nice, honest and a good physio. every week felt improvement and stronger. Strongly recommend the guy.

  • Harrison S.

    As a long-distance runner, I’ve dealt with my fair share of soft tissue injuries, but with the help of Justin (who I have worked with for years now) and the team at Forza, they’ve gotten me back on track quickly. Whether it was a strained calf or tight IT band, they’ve always provided targeted treatments that got me back to running faster than expected. The physiotherapists are highly skilled, knowledgeable, and take the time to tailor a rehab plan for my specific needs. I truly appreciate their dedication to keeping me injury-free and performing at my best. Highly recommend!
