Kieser Kingston

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Kieser Kington regularly for some time with the aim of maintaining my mobility and increasing my ability to safely manage my day-to-day activities. I am a recently retired health professional with somewhat complex needs due to my past medical issues, multiple joint replacements and the ageing process. At this stage, I consider that I have managed to partly achieve my aims with the professional care of staff at Keiser Kingston. My aim is to continue this strengthening programme into the future to further improve my safe daily function. My initial meeting there was with Matthew Wang (physiotherapist). My medical status was fully assessed by Matt, my current needs were outlined, and a detailed care programme was documented on the Kieser app by Matt. Following this, as my programme progressed, I have had regular advice and assessments by both Matt and Andrew (exercise scientist). My programme has been modified as required over this time. Subjectively, I have been feeling much better, and this improvement has been confirmed through regular clinical assessments by Matt. Given this demonstrated benefits to myself, I intend continuing my attendance regularly at Kieser into the future. Over my time attending the Kingston clinic, I have been very impressed with the professional care provided by Matt. He is a caring person and I feel that he has listened to my needs. His advice has been based on his obvious detailed knowledge of physiotherapy and the benefits to be gained my regular participation in such an activity programme. I would have no hesitation recommending the programmes offered by Matt, Andrew and the other staff at Kieser Kingston to anyone who may require such services.

Negative experience: Matthew Wang is unprofessional - do not recommend to see him for any appointment

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. Staff are awesome, very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Helped me immensely with my lower back issues.

Fantastic experience: Arion has been a phenomenal aid to my recovery. After our initial consultation, Arion planned out the pathway to my recovery and executed it beyond expectations. The clinic has been a pivotal part of my recovery from back issues that had been problematic for over a decade. Overall a super friendly and professional atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: The program is very well calibrated to the needs of the customers. And the program really does make a difference. The staff are highly trained and very engaged with their clients.

Fantastic experience: I am not normally a gym person but I've enjoyed the Kieser experience and feel great after every visit. I have been lucky to have had Sam Burke as my physiotherapist. I have loved his energy and enthusiasm along with his caring attitude. He has set me on the right path to combat osteopenia and arthritis which my mother suffered from immensely in her later years. Chloe Taylor has been great at supporting the program he initiated by keeping me on track and maintaining the momentum. Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: Well worth the effort

Fantastic experience: My GP recommended Kieser and now I know why....after a month or two of a carefully designed and supervised program on their special machines i seem to be completely free of back pain that troubled me for 50 years ( I am 80). Kieser has something for all ages but they specialise in areas that need the input of both their excellent physios and exercise physiologists working in tandem. The gym is quiet for focussed workout and the warm, attentive staff create an inviting ambience. There's nothing like it in the gym world.

Positive experience: I went to this place to view what was different from a gym. It is a different approach in strength training and all the staff were knowledgeable. I definitely would be going to this place in the future.

Fantastic experience: Thank you soo much Kieser for have a fantastic staff and great equipment,been for 3months and my improvement was excellent.

Fantastic experience: My neurosurgeon explained two surgical options for dealing with my neck and shoulder problems, and she also referred me to a physio-led gym called Kieser, at Kingston. The idea was to address my neck and shoulder problems through physio treatment combined with a physio-prescribed exercise program using Kieser’s custom-built machines that isolate and use specific muscles while reducing compensatory movement of other muscles (ever had a sore knee and ended up with a sore hip from walking funny?). We wanted to see if we could avoid surgery, or at least get me into a better position for surgery (this is called “pre-hab”!) followed by post-surgery rehab. The physio (Declan) prescribed the exercises, then I had two sessions a week with an exercise scientist (Chloe or Tanika), then one session a week with an exercise scientist, and now I’m fully independent in the gym - I use the app to access my program and record my exercise sessions. I still have some optional sessions with an exercise scientist to ensure I'm using good technique. Six months since I started at Kieser, my neurosurgeon is confident that we are not going down the surgery path. I spend 2 x 40 minute sessions at Kieser a week. They’re open late nights and Saturdays too. Most people do 2 x 30 minute sessions per week. Some people do 3 sessions a week. On each machine, you work until your muscles hit full fatigue/weakness. Once you can do 120 seconds, you can slightly increase the weight for the next session. I have a high-tech set of scales that I can use to track my body changes. I have lost weight, lost fat, gained muscle, and gained bone mass. The bone mass is really important for women and for anyone who’s getting older each year (ie everyone). My pain levels have become so low that I don’t take any daytime pain meds. Over the years, I have joined gyms and pools and never gone beyond the first week or two. The Kieser gym has a great staff base who know my name and support me on good days and bad days, celebrate my wins and don’t push me too hard. I’ve had personal trainers before who treated me like a naughty child, someone who should be ashamed of my body or its problems, or pushed me too hard or too fast and ended up scaring me off or injuring me. I’m sure there are lots of great physio gyms out there. I haven’t tried them, so I can’t compare them, but I can definitely heartily recommend Kieser. There are machines for everything, even pelvic floor, and classes available for heart health, balance etc. There’s free parking out the front of the gym and on the side streets, and a great coffee shop in the same block of shops and businesses. I am sharing this because I wish someone had shared it with me years before I wound up in the neurosurgeon's office!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely outstanding service. The programs are custom to support all your needs. Sam is an absolutely amazing physio who has supported me to get back to my physical best. If I could give more than 5 stars i definitely would.

Fantastic experience: Went to Kieser to get stronger and improve my mobility. Kieser delivered on both accounts! My heartfelt thanks to Chloe Taylor! A very knowledgeable human!Also thanks to Connor McLean for his physio know how! Am so much better than when I started!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly reception, professional staff, good facilities, encouraged to push on.

Fantastic experience: Looked around Kingston and surrounds and settled for Kieser on the basis of their consistent, strength-based approach for each exercise machine, friendly staff, spacious setting, no mirrors, no leotards, and no music. I have nine machines in my routine, and am 2 minutes on each. The same sequence of 4-2-4-2 applies to each machine i.e. 4 seconds (up or down), then hold 2 seconds, 4 seconds, then hold 2 seconds, repeat. They recommend two visits a week, which gives plenty of flexibility, and encourages attendance. My last six sessions lasted 33, 43, 37, 34, 35 and 35 minutes. Doing and completing a session is relaxing. I have found parking to be easy. A shout out to Sienna and Ella on the front desk.

Fantastic experience: I was referred to Kieser Kingston for rehab after surgery and have noticed a definite improvement to both my strength and fitness. The team are fantastic and care about your progress. The added benefit is that I can complete my training in under 45 minutes.

Fantastic experience: Kieser training is next level. Really feeling a big difference. Love seeing Sienna at the front desk. Big happy smile and always very helpful. All staff are amazing. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Kieser Kingston is a gym with a difference. I tried using personal trainers and commercial gyms in the past, but they didn't understand my needs. At Kieser, I get the specialised support I need from experienced professionals. A shout-out to my team, Chloe and Connor, who are helping me get back on track. In the short time I've been attending Keiser, I can feel myself getting stronger little by little.

Fantastic experience: Coffee for Sienna who always says Hello. And for Chloe who made an unsolicited offer to help me improve my technique on F2.1 and F3.1

Fantastic experience: My initial scepticism that Physio combined with strength training could delay an operation to replace my osteoarthritic knees, was quickly changed aftermy doctors referal to Kieser. From the very first visit the welcome Sienna, and the rest of the team gave me was a refreshing change. Making myself and all of the other members feel at home. Within two weeks, two physion sessions, plus one to one strength training sessions, the Keiser team had rid me of two years of almost constant pain! Thank you Declan and team! With just two months, I've regained the strenght I had lost in the preceding years. Maintaining an almost pain free, and much more active lifestyle.

Fantastic experience: Chloe is a great ES and has helped greatly with my strengthening exercises. Conner as my physiotherapist has provided great guidance in establishing the correct exercises for me. I feel much better after following through with the regime laid out for me.

Fantastic experience: Kieser kingston is a great place for anyone seeking structured strength and physio guided workouts. Which is ideal after an injury and if you are after long-term functional strength. I highly recommend Chloe Taylor (PT) and Sam Burke (Physiotherapist), they are amazing at what they do!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic facility with well trained, friendly staff. Perfect mix of rehab and strength training with Exercise Scientists, Exercise Physiologists and Physio’s.

Fantastic experience: I joined Kieser about a month ago to help with my knee pain and can already feel the difference. The Kingston team are super friendly and always around to help.

Fantastic experience: After 45.5 years in the ADF after joining at 17 and now rapidly approaching 64, my body is a wreck. I am fused L3 - S1 and have a right hip replacement. After numerous surgeries and various alternate allied health experiments, I found Kieser at 45 Wentworth Avenue Kingston in Canberra. After 6 months working with Connor (physiotherapist) and Sophie (exercise physiologist), with their help, the ship (excuse the pun) is turning around. A lot of my back and hip pain, whilst not totally gone, has given me a decent quality of life back. We are currently working on sciatica that I have had for years that conventional medicine has been unable to fix. As a team, Sophie, Connor and I will smash this. I cannot recommend Kieser highly enough to give you quality of life it has given me back as opposed to a life of physical pain. As there are so many Kieser places around the country, given I travel abit, there is always a Kieser to be found. Thank you Connor and Sophie for giving me back my life and confidence back.

Fantastic experience: The most professional, experienced friendly staff I have ever dealt with. I could not recommend keiser more highly, they have been magic healing my injured shoulder and now with strengthening I have never felt stronger. Many thanks to Connor and all the staff at Keiser Kingston.

Fantastic experience: Sophie WOODBRIDGE, (physiotherapist), has a warm, welcoming and caring presence. I trust and feel very confident in working one-to-one with her. I leave each session, having enjoyed it and feeling strengthened by it. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Kieser Kingston for 10 weeks. Staff are professional, helpful and friendly. I enjoy the training sessions and feel much fitter and stronger. It is great that my strength training has been geared towards my osteoporosis.

Fantastic experience: What a journey!! I just completed a 12 week program before heading overseas and I'm proud that I stuck with it every week for the 12 weeks. Including a session in Melbourne when I did a quick getaway. Connor started my journey and has guided me through with some extra physio sessions. All staff have always been welcoming and encouraging - special mention to Sienna at reception and Chloe and Max who have pushed me to my limits. Thanks everyone.

Fantastic experience: Kieser (Kingston ACT) is a refreshing way to improve strength, balance and build resistance. The machines stand out and target the individual needs of each patron. The staff are brilliant, supportive and importantly, extremely knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Kieser Kingston enough. Connor and Tenaya have helped me recover from surgery and remove my back (and related) pain, increase my strength to prevent future issues, and build my confidence. Very professional, knowledgeable, caring and encouraging- all in a non-intimidating environment. Sienna is also very helpful and friendly- I’m very happy they’ve opened here in Canberra.

Fantastic experience: Since I have started strength training at Kieser 2-3 times a week I have felt fitter and stronger. I can now walk for longer without pain! The staff are super friendly and helpful and always greet me with a smile and my name.

Fantastic experience: Kieser is outstanding. The team consists of highly qualified professionals who truly care about their clients. They treat and give you targeted strength and conditioning training specifically designed for you. I started my journey in Nov 24 (cancelling my existing gym membership). I really enjoy my strength training program and personally feel stronger and stronger every day!

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a fantastic experience at Keiser! The staff is not only incredibly friendly and approachable, but they are also extremely knowledgeable. As someone with osteopenia, I’ve struggled with pain and instability, but with their expert guidance, I’ve seen real improvements. They’ve helped me reduce my pain and significantly increase my stability. I truly appreciate how attentive and personalized the care is, and I feel more confident in my body’s strength every day. Highly recommend Keiser to anyone looking for top-notch care and support!

Fantastic experience: Very professional with wonderful caring staff.

Fantastic experience: Great environment, wonderful and knowledgeable staff, and very pleased by my strength progress in a relatively short period of time. And the sessions are so time efficient.

Fantastic experience: Kieser is an excellent physiotherapy gym that focuses on building strength and preventing injuries. The staff are professional and knowledgeable, providing tailored programs to suit individual needs. The equipment is high-quality and safe, and the gym is always clean and welcoming. Highly recommend for anyone looking to improve their health and strength !

Fantastic experience: Kieser Kingston has brought a new meaning to my life and management of my scoliosis. Within the first couple of weeks of training I noticed positive physical and mental improvements. Thanks to all the staff who have supported me on this journey so far - you have given me something to look forward to as I challenge myself each week and receive encouragement from my ESs and physio.

Fantastic experience: 5 Stars! A fresh and different approach to recovery, general fitness and strength training. The team are really approachable and caring about all of their clients. I am finally pain free from my shoulder injury after five years! Definitely a unique approach to recovery that you can see results from!

Fantastic experience: Coming to this training almost over 2months now and it really helped strengthen my core , legs and back. All pains gone and only feeling strong! Doesn’t need to spend long time but it’s the quality of every moment counts. Highly trained and experienced , friendly , helpful Staff! They anre all great! Overall experience Is superb! Physio therapist and exercise therapist are really great!

Fantastic experience: Kieser was recommended by my sister-in-law and I'm so happy she did. The staff are wonderful - always helpful and positive. Having a physio-led program means I feel far more confident in my exercise and movement than in a regular gym. The machines have a smooth action and specialised settings tailored to body size and individual requirements. My injuries are improving as well as my general strength and muscle tone. I highly recommend Connor McLean as a patient, informed physiotherapist who goes the extra mile for his clients. Overall a 10/10 recommendation. I have never attended a gym so consistently!

Fantastic experience: This style of strength training combined with the incredibly clever and friendly team at Kingston is a revelation. I love that the equipment design has been methodically thought through and the strength programs curated for each client, regardless of their goals. I didn't have injuries but love the depth of knowledge the Physio and Exercise Scientists have, which ensures I'm training well and safely. The Physios and Exercise Scientists are exceptional (thanks Ari!) and my only hesitation in giving 5 stars is that the studio will get busy...! This studio and team are such an asset for Canberrans.

Fantastic experience: I have improved much more, with less effort, than other training styles and my body feels great. I haven't once been tempted to skip a session. The sessions are only 30 mins long and it almost feels like you are cheating because the session is short. It keeps me keen to come back for the next 30 min session. You only do one set of an exercise - so when it's done, it's done. The physiotherapists, exercise physiologists and exercise scientists are highly professional and work to my goals and where my body is at. And the atmosphere is a revelation - calm, open, airy with approachable staff.

Fantastic experience: Great professional staff and wonderful team spirit. They care about helping you reach your goals, whether that be strengthening, tone or building resilience and repair to injuries. After 6 sessions I can already feel the difference with reduced pain and increased strength. Can only highly recommend the Kieser team and their equipment to help people of all ages and needs. You won't regret it. Health is wealth!!

Fantastic experience: Quite different (in a good way) experience than most gyms. Strong focus on targeted strengthening and dealing with any injuries or weaknesses with highly adjustable gym machines designed to precisely isolate and target specific problems with maximum efficiency. All the “trainers” (big thumbs up for Max and Paul) are actual exercise science graduates and are both nice guys and know what they are doing. Physiotherapy on site and integrated into program and ongoing if needed.

Fantastic experience: Great strength program put together by physiotherapists and exercise physiologists. It is also really handy having access to this expertise to adjust things when you get the occasional niggle.

Fantastic experience: Loving Kieser Kingston. Great staff. Excellent service. Superb strength programs and highly effective Physio treatments. Real asset for Canberra community.

Fantastic experience: It’s been about eight weeks since I joined the “gym”. I have many diseases and impairments that impact my body and have limited any previous gym work. I need an environment that “loves and respects” this imperfect body. Keiser, and its cautious/ methodical/German approach, is helping to grow my muscles and build back my mojo.
