I joined Symmetrix 9 month ago with knee injury from a few years back. Prior to Symmetrix I tried many other ‘professionals’ who didn’t really help me. Dasha did amazing job and helped me to recover from the injury. Strongly recommend Symmetrix if you want to get better and not just waist time and moneyThanks a lot for the hard job and professionalism Leon More...

I worked with Curtis Hutson for a few months to help me with my shoulder pain. He really helped me strength my shoulder and taught me a wide range of exercises that I do regularly in the gym now. He's a really great guy and a pleasure to talk to. I would highly recommend him. More...

Hello everyone!I don't write reviews often, well mostly never but I had to make sure anyone who is thinking about taking that extra step into making a lifestyle change and isn't quite sure if it's going to be worth it! Well, listen up! I was a young athlete training towards a dream to compete and attend the Olympic games representing Canada in the TaeKwonDo event. I had been training since 14 years old while still going to school and having sessions from 2-4 times a day with my coach, every day, for about 8 years. I accomplished my goal and made the Olympic team, won a bronze medal and still was pushing for more. Little did I know, I was doing harm to my body, mind and spirit during that whole time, not knowing how to properly recover and thinking, I was never going to decline in any form4 years ago, I unfortunately did notice a decline after I stopped my sport and as days went by, I noticed the decline becoming more and more harsh, to the point where I was not able to sleep, move or not be in pain from normal daily activities. I'm a very stubborn person usually, so I pushed that aside and kept moving on in my life until 2 months ago, I met Dasha MacWiliam. I finally decided to make a change but had no idea who to trust, invest and depend on because I was not about to waste my time or money, until I found out about Symmetrix. This is why I am finally writing a review, and not about a business who treats their environment with care, cleanliness and love but also about the people who work there as well. Dasha, if you're reading this, Thank you so much for putting all this effort into my program, issues and problems because I have never felt better. You really are doing a great job and hope anyone who read this whole thing ( proud of you ) are going to give this place a chance! Hope I did a good job with my review but I had to say it! Good luck to everyone wanting change! More...

I have never been one for big, chain gyms so was immediately drawn to Symmetrix - First by their intimate (and clean) setting and secondly by their highly trained staff. I knew I was in a good place after my initial assessment with owner Dasha MacWilliam and signed up for personal training sessions that day.For over three months now I have worked closely with kinesiologist/personal trainer Anais Masbou on my goals. With her guidance and knowledge I have gotten so much stronger than I would have on my own. The workouts are challenging but never to the point of debilitation or pain. Over this time and work my body has definitely changed (for the better), I feel stronger both physically and mentally and honestly look forward to each session there. I am so grateful for Symmetrix and would recommend them to anyone looking to improve their overall health and wellness. More...

Dasha and her staff are amazing! I was struggling with bad hip and foot issues and kept hitting the wall when trying to exercise on my own. Dasha patiently and persistently worked with me through pool and gym exercises until we found the right routine that would not aggravate my injuries and help me gradually get my strength back. The best part is my pain is improving and I’m getting my back into shape! I am now working out regularly using her program and feeling the best I have in several years thanks to Dasha and her team. I would highly recommend! More...

I highly recommend Symmetrix. Our Company was looking for an Ergonomics provider for our HQ in Vancouver and Dasha was outstanding. From the initial phone call to the actual training, Symmetrix was professional, comprehensive and detail oriented. Our staff loved the session and we can't wait to bring them back for future learning opportunities! More...

Anais has been patient and professional working with my muscle pain after being t-boned in January 2019. My recovery would not have been as achievable without her help. She sets reasonable exercises to activate each muscle giving you the control and strength I had otherwise suffered from after the accident. Anais also provides home exercises upon request for those looking to get into the habit and looking for a quicker recovery. When I struggled to find a RMT she was also able to give me recommendations. It was a pleasure working with Anais and I felt well informed during my recovery at Symmetrix. More...

I sought out Symmetrix to help with my rehabilitation from a shoulder injury. I managed to severely strain/tear my rotator cuff playing hockey. I was able to book on line and select the appointment times that best suited my schedule. The studio has long hours, with early morning and evening appointments, available.The initial assessment was very thorough and identified the areas that needed to be worked on. In addition to the session work at the Studio, I was provided a personalized home workout program, delivered right to my smartphone. It's great having the exercises with me wherever I go. The rehab work at Symmetrix is very focused and I have experienced great results, with both mobility and strength returning to my shoulder. Another benefit has been the education around how my body works and finding other areas to work on to improve my health and mobility.Working with Anais has been amazing. She is confident, professional and very knowledgeable. Anais is both direct and encouraging. A great combination when you want results. I look forward to our sessions.All in all, it has been a great experience, one that I highly recommend to anyone looking for rehabilitation from an injury or to improve their health , strength and mobility.

Highly recommend. Dasha has been key to me reclaiming my confidence, and her approach of listening, encouraging and gently pushing my limits has kept me motivated rather than burning me out. The space feels private and welcoming without being intimidating and the rest of the team are great too. More...

I had a shoulder injury and went to Dasha for some help. She was fantastic, not only did she give me some corrective exercises which I was able to do at home very easily, but she used a chart to explain what was causing my pain and in what way her exercises were going to help. As well as being talented at what she does, she's also lovely! I highly recommend Dasha! More...

I am 42 years old, female I had and injury to my hip and was not able to exercise for over a year. I went to multiple doctors and physiotherapist but was still not able to do things. Found out about Symmetrix and has an assessment, I felt like it was a good fit for me. I started with an exercise program to work on hip problem and general conditioning. Dasha explains the exercises and anatomy very well, she is professional and adjusts every session base on how I am feeling. We aren't only doing only rehab at this point, it is a combination of strength training and rehab. I am now doing deadlifts with 115lbs, which I never expected to do, and I can go snowboarding too. Dasha gave me confidence to try new things and move my body in different ways. I would recommend her to anyone and have referred my friends and family members to Symmetrix. More...

I came to Symmetrix for rehab of my knee right after an operation. After an initial assessment session, Curtis put me through various exercises to stretch and strengthen joints and muscles that have weakened due to the injury. After a few weeks of working out, I could definitely see the improvement. The facility is the size of a 1 bedroom loft. You get 1 on 1 attention and at most there are 2 clients working out at the same time. They are quite well-equipped and everyone there is really nice. I'd recommend them for your exercise and rehab needs. More...
