Physiotherapy at Forza is focused on improving movement, function, and overall well-being through exercises, manual therapy, and education, tailored to treat and prevent various physical conditions. What to expect:

One-to-one assessment only: this allows us to fully focus on your issues and make sure we have a clear treatment plan decision.

Objective and standardised testing: we will use tools and technology such as force plates and dynamometers to accurately identify and monitor your physical limitations, rather than traditional inaccurate measurements.

Personalised treatment: your sessions and home care will be hand crafted for you at every appointment.

State of the art equipment: We will have access to full use of Evolve Fitness equipment as well as clinic specific tools such as Blood Flow Restriction Training.

Monitoring and follow up: you will have email and online access to your physio between appointments. Sometimes things change between sessions and we want to make sure we follow your progress in and outside of the clinic.

Referral Network: If we believe you no longer need physiotherapy or if you can benefit from another service we have a wide range of in-house and external sources we can refer to.

Justin grew up in the Tri-cities of British Columbia and enjoyed an upbringing that revolved around community and sport. He realized from a young age he wanted to turn the things he loves most into a career and that is exactly what he set out to do. He went on to study Kinesiology – Exercise Science at the University of the Fraser Valley and from there travelled to Australia to complete a Master’s in Physiotherapy at the University of Queensland. Before returning home, he stayed and worked across Australia and continued his education from experts in the field.

Justin believes in long-term athlete development, and health promotion and that exercise is medicine. Providing education to the public, reducing the risk of injury and bridging the gap between acute injury management and Return to Sport is what he does best. He says “The recipe for success in rehabilitation is a strong therapist-patient relationship that thrives on communication + education, managing pain and most importantly providing individualized exercise prescription through a comprehensive assessment”.

Justin enjoys working with people from all walks of life who are motivated to reach their goals. Particularly his heart lies with soccer and he still identifies with the sport. In his free time, he likes to get outdoors with friends to hike and play tennis and pickleball to keep fit and keep life interesting. So if you are an overhead athlete (swimmer, Olympic weightlifter, volleyball player, baseball player etc) or in a running and kicking sport come to see him to understand how you can perform at your best and reduce your risk of the most common injuries in your sport.
