As a skinny kid with asthma, Michelle never expected to excel in the athletic domain. Despite these challenges, she went on to compete in volleyball at the rep level, basketball and rugby at the varsity level and threw javelin at the national level. She has worked hard on her physique over the past 14 years and competed in amateur natural bodybuilding earning a Pro Card in her most recent competition with the IDFA.

Michelle believes that the secret to success lies within the 6 inches between your ears and spends her time spreading this gospel to patients and clients. Besides being a top trainer in downtown Toronto, Dr. Crispe also practices Chiropractic and teaches her clients about the importance of nutrition, posture, movement and a healthy nervous system.

Dr. Crispe completed her 4 year undergraduate degree in Kinesiology at Wilfrid Laurier University and went on to another 4 years at Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College. With 12 years of personal training, nutrition and wellness coaching experience, Michelle now uses fat-loss secrets of the bodybuilding and physique industry to help others achieve the same success.

Testimonials

“I have worked with many personal trainers and Michelle is simply outstanding. Michelle uniquely understands that real transformations begin in our minds and she began by asking questions and continues to help me change my mind as I change my body. It is the changes in my thoughts that have brought about my real changes--this allows me to get back on track when I falter. And, she always has the right thing to say to keep me motivated! The workouts are really challenging and fun and as a result I continue to grow stronger each session both physically and mentally. She has helped me change my life irrevocably.' -Jill

“Since I began training and chiropractic sessions with Michelle, my life has changed dramatically. For years I had been struggling to get into better shape, feel healthier, stronger, happier, and to achieve heightened results from my workouts, and thanks to Michelle’s excellent training, I have never felt or looked better! Michelle’s professionalism, vast experience and knowledge, inspiring words, focus on your individuality, techniques, life skills and results-oriented training, combined with her wit, humour, invaluable advice, caring and incredible coaching, make working out with her an absolute pleasure. She not only inspires me to the highest levels, but she also most definitely practices what she teaches – her definition and form are flawless and her athletic accomplishments are extensive. She is a true role model in every sense of the word!

The highlights of my every week are my training sessions with Michelle. I really don’t think I could go on without her and my hour-long drive both there and back are worth every second! As important as my training sessions with Michelle/Dr. Crispe are, my chiropractic appointments with her are equally so. I have had severe neck and back problems for the past number of years. I have tried so many types of treatment and I thought that I was destined to spend the rest of my life in agonizing and debilitating pain. Michelle assessed my situation and assured me that whatever she would do would be safe for my condition and would help me manage my pain. After my first session with her, I was pleasantly shocked that my pain had gone from a high of 10 to a low of 4 and ever since, even lower. After years of pain and misguided therapy and visits to so many other practitioners, and mostly, my hopelessness that I would ever feel better, in just one session, Michelle had managed to relieve a huge amount of my pain and discomfort. I couldn’t believe it! I couldn't believe it. I cannot thank Michelle enough for all that she has done to help me in my life, in a myriad of ways, and I strongly recommend her to anyone and everyone out there who is looking to change and elevate their life towards a happier, healthier (physically, emotionally, mentally & spiritually) path. Whether for training or chiropractic care, Dr. Michelle Crispe is unparalleled!” - Joanne

“After working with Michelle for a few months, I am feeling stronger, more energetic, have less aches and pains and have lost 15 pounds. Michelle knows her stuff and makes getting up early in the morning for an intense workout a pleasure. As a woman who has dealt with fibromyalgia for many years, I am extremely pleased with the results I am achieving.” - Ellen
