“The Defy team is phenomenal! I’ve been working with Jared on running related injuries, and since day one I have felt like I receive quality attention and care. Not only have I returned to running consistently, but I have also learned a lot about my body. As a result, I feel more knowledgeable, stronger, and like I am set up for long term success with my fitness. Thank you, Jared, Julie, Dee, Hope and everyone else that contributes to this welcoming space. It is always a joy to come here. If you are looking for injury rehabilitation, have an interest in learning about your body, and want support to be your best, active self then I recommend Defy."

“Jenny Telfer-Crum is such a skilled, compassionate physiotherapist! Would highly recommend her for anyone having pelvic-health issues. Throughout the treatments she has made sure I felt comfortable and always asked for consent. Her help with pessary fitting and with pelvic floor exercises has made a huge difference to my daily life. She is a skilled, inclusive practitioner with a kind, non-judgmental demeanour. Grateful to have found her!"
“We had a great experience at Defy Sports Performance and Physiotherapy. My daughter had some sport-related strains and the therapist worked with her one on one to assess her issues and to created targeted exercises to help resolve them. The facility is bright and comfortable, lots of parking, and really knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff."

"This place deserves more than 5 stars. Highly recommended!! The staffs are very nice and friendly especially to my physiotherapist 'Danielle'. She is amazing. She did a really great job of my right shoulder which I hurt from snowboarding. I misaligned my collarbone and everything hurts which I could barely raise and move my right arms and shoulder. Thanks to Danielle! Thanks to Defy! You are absolutely awesome!!❤ I am now back to normal with my daily activities."

"I have only good things to say about this facility & their staff. Such a welcoming atmosphere from the moment you walk in the door. The reception team is so friendly & helpful with rescheduling and booking appointments in advance. The physiotherapist I worked with was Justine. Her positive outlook and expansive knowledge made me feel comfortable from day one of my treatment. She explained my injury to me and was realistic and honest with the treatment plan. She helped me set goals & stick to them every week. My injury recovered quicker than we anticipated, and she was there cheering me on every step of the way. I couldn't recommend this place or Justine more for any physio needs! 10/10 Experience"

"Defy Physio exceeded my expectations! I began seeing Julie when I started running a couple years ago and was met with continuous encouragement and practical strategies to address current challenges and prevent future issues. Highly recommend, regardless of where you're at on your health and wellness journey!"

"I have been doing physio with Matt on my ankle which has given me trouble consistently for years. It rolls very easily and I've suffered many sprains over the years. In the last 4 weeks we have massively improved both strength and stability and my ankle hasn't felt as good in years. With Matts help we hit all the goals in our plan and today I started crossfit which is huge for me. Thanks to Matt and Defy for a job well done."

"Jared Lando, Guelph Physiotherapist, came highly recommended to us by our child’s coach. Jared carried out a very thorough evaluation and, throughout the whole of the recovery and rehabilitation process, kept our child engaged and eager to complete the assigned exercises. Whilst I was originally hesitant when appointments moved to an online format due to COVID-19 restrictions, this was unfounded. By the time we emerged from lockdown and training resumed, the injury was healed and strength and function were also much better than before the injury. We are so glad that we followed up on the recommendation!
Julie Brandon, GuelphPhysiotherapist, was recommended by Jared after I asked who was the best person to help me following an arm injury shovelling snow. While resting it had helped, I realized that it would remain more susceptible to re-injury. Julie not only helped with pain reduction and restoration of function but also successfully diagnosed and resolved an older and ongoing hand issue I had resigned myself to having to work around. A+++ and one very happy customer! Thank you so much Julie for helping me build back better and stronger.
Dee Begin, Guelph Athletic Therapist, offers fantastic, accessible and very cost-effective strength and training programs. As a self-confessed “I know I need to exercise but…..” person it proved to be a great way to get me back in. Dee is extremely knowledgeable and has helped me develop, build good technique and, to my surprise, has kept me coming back! Dee is incredibly attentive and creative in adapting exercises and programs to get the best out of each participant. Moving with more strength and freedom has been a beautiful thing to regain.
We were recommended to Defy Physiotherapy in Guelph by our child’s coach and we whole-heartedly recommend them. It truly is a team environment, very welcoming, encouraging and supportive. In addition, they run seminars and workshops covering a broad range of topics and are a great add-on offering.
