About FITT Forge

FITT Forge is a community-oriented group/team training facility that believes in strength, movement, and active recovery. We’re looking for a Physiotherapist who shares that philosophy and wants to work in an environment where rehabilitation goes beyond the treatment table.

Our physiotherapy space is an open-concept treatment area located directly within the gym, allowing you to work closely with members and integrate exercise and active rehabilitation into patient care.

About the Role

We are looking for a Physiotherapist to become the sole physiotherapist at FITT Forge. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys building relationships, working independently, and being part of a welcoming gym community.

You’ll work primarily with orthopedic and musculoskeletal injuries, with an emphasis on helping people return to the activities, sports, and training they enjoy.

This role is ideal for a physiotherapist who believes that exercise is an important part of treatment and enjoys keeping patients engaged and active in the gym rather than relying solely on passive, hands-on treatment.

- A strong team player
- Comfortable working independently as the sole physiotherapist on site
- Passionate about exercise, strength training, and active recovery
- Someone who believes in lifting weights and exercise as part of rehabilitation
- Personally active and enjoys an active lifestyle
- Comfortable working with both everyday gym members and athletic populations




- Interested in building long-term relationships with clients rather than simply providing a treatment and sending them on their way

Requirements

- Physiotherapy degree

- Professional liability insurance
- 2-5 years of physiotherapy experience preferred
- Experience with orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills
