Trainers near Waunakee

“Dropped in for a workout while in Madison. Marlow and everyone were extremely welcoming. Very nice facility, great equipment, excellent workout. Highly recommend.“

“I've been seeing Dr Heidi and she is fantastic! I've seen many soft tissue practitioners and chiropractors and she is one of the best. The use of multiple modalities, doing just enough and not too much, has been great for me. My husband saw Dr Mark for the first time recently and felt like his experience was by far the best he's had with a chiropractor as well. I would highly recommend them both!“

“I’ve worked with Spencer and Taylor and I highly recommend both! They helped me to continue running despite minor injuries and to correct muscle imbalances to keep me healthy through multiple training cycles.“

“Hands down the best Martial Arts School in WI. The instructors are friendly and extremely knowledgeable and the facilities are top notch!“

“Literally the best gym and best trainers I have ever worked with! Like LIFE-CHANGING good. I am notorious for starting things but not sticking with them, but I’ve been here for a year and don’t ever see myself leaving! I work primarily with Amanda, who specializes in hypermobility/EDS (among other things). She has taught me so much about my EDS, and I am so much stronger and in less pain since I’ve started working with her. She is amazing at adapting workouts based on how I actually feel that day. She is sooo knowledgeable and a great teacher. She is also just really caring and supportive, and is great at celebrating your success. Lastly, I have had some really terrible life events happen, and Amanda, Annie, and staff truly went above and beyond to help me out during those tough times. You will never regret a day spent here!“

“Always clean and never too crowded. I wish they would replace some of the never-to-be-all-used-at-once treadmills with more weight racks, as dumbbells are limited in quantity.“

“Luis is an amazing trainer! He is very creative and methodical when he puts your workout together. He is motivating when he challenges you to push because he knows your potential. He always has another suggestion or modification for an exercise if needed. I always look forward to my next workout“

“I love the positive, open atmosphere at Pat's Gym. As a runner, I was worried I would not fit in. NothIng could be further from my experience. All abilities and types of athletes are welcome here.In addition to the invigorating atmosphere at the gym, Pat's coaching has helped keep me strong and injury free as I continue into my 60's.“

“Great instructors and great community. I’ve only been going for a month so far, but already feel stronger and more mobile.“

“David Laden is exceptional by any measure (healer, master rolfer, human being). The day I met him is a pivotal point in my life. I was suffering from massive abdominal adhesions that formed after abdominal surgery. The traditional medical specialist told me that if there was a hall of fame for adhesions, I would be in it. I was a mess. Adhesive tissues encased intestine and bowel and attached organs to my stomach and back. A planned minor surgery to remove adhesions turned into major surgery when a scope was inserted into my abdomen and punctured bowel attached to the stomach wall. The surgeons did what they could, but the adhesions remained or returned, making most movements difficult at best. Movement caused "adhesion attacks" that included swelling, organ twists, and intensely painful blockages. The traditional medical community cautioned me that any further abdominal surgeries would produce more adhesions, possibly leaving me in even worse shape, My doctors worked with me to discover a pain medication that was effective and would not harden stool as most effective pain medications tend to offer as a side effect. Very bad idea in my case. I also was sent to pain management therapy sessions (which I highly recommend for everyone who deals with chronic pain) and mindfulness training (also very helpful). I share my background so you understand my situation and why I was desperately going through alternative medicine techniques to discover something -- anything -- that promised to alleviate my problem. Most failed, but when I read that rolfers work with connective tissue, I thought it worth a try and scheduled an appointment with David Laden, the only MASTER rolfer in Madison at the time. I knew my situation would require an expert to have any hope of success. My first visit with David Laden was in the mid1990s. He started out gently and slowly in weekly sessions; now I just need to see him only once a month which I will continue to do forever. His skills have given me a much better life than I would have lived without his help. At first, I could tell that some of the adhesions near the surface were starting to stretch, giving me greater range of motion. The I realized that he was working on stretching deeper tissues. His work goes on, and so does improvement in my condition. We laugh, because he says he's known me longer than he's known many of his friends. It is a testament to the quality of his work in yielding healing results and to him as a very decent, caring human being. On top of that, know that my health insurance does not cover my sessions with David. He has helped improve my chronic pain condition by addressing the cause, something traditional medicine cannot offer. This has improved the quality of my life GREATLY and in ways I didn't dare hope. I GLADLY find the money to pay for David's treatments out of my own pocket ... all these decades ... a bottom-line testament to David Laden's skills as a healer. I highly recommend you see David Laden if you suffer from chronic pain, and I pray he will be able to help you as much as he has helped me.“

“I am in town from Illinois visiting my Son and other family members. I suffer from sciatica in my lower back. But this time it was an aggravating pain in my hip. I saw an advertisement on FB. I saw the offer for a free stretch session. I made the appointment. The Manager, Chris was one of the nicest, the most personable, the most knowledgeable Man I have ever met. I received the 30 minute stretch session and the consultation. It wasn't any hard sell of their services. He simply told me of what I needed going forward. He didn't even ask for a review. I walked away feeling so much better. I never knew the benefits of stretching. The Stretch Zone and Mr. Chris are a Godsend. Thank you!!!“

“Brittany and Heather are SO amazing - after a stressful day, they totally made my day. I was running so late today and they completely (and cheerfully) accommodated me. Not only that, but their facility is top notch and it works! Highly recommended!“

“I have had many appointments and belong to the health center at Science Drive/Research Park UW Health. I have always been met with friendly patient schedulers, knowledgeable physical therapists, physician assistants and nurses, and skilled doctors and surgeons.“

“My favorite gym of all time! High quality workout equipment, great track, wonderful classes, big windows which brings in so much natural light, and so much more! Wish they had more gyms like these all over Wisconsin! Everyone is always so kind and welcoming! They keep things very clean too!“
