iron therapy has been my home gym for a little over a year now, and has made me better both in the gym and as a person. John and Emmy (owners) have both been so helpful and guiding as i competed in my first show. the equipment is well taken care of, clean and provides an experience you won’t get anywhere else. the atmosphere here is one of the best parts about being a member. people are uplifting and kind and I have built a support group and lasting friendships.

Iron Therapy Gym is truly the best gym in town!
Locally owned by an honest, hardworking family, this place is everything you want in a gym and more. The owners are not only friendly and welcoming, but incredibly knowledgeable and always willing to help.
The facilities are always well maintained: spotless bathrooms, clean gym floors, and equipment that’s amazing, thoughtfully selected, and in great condition.
My whole family comes here and we absolutely love it. Iron Therapy has become our second home.
If you’re looking for a gym with great energy, community, and owners who genuinely care, I’d recommend this place to anyone!

I Review Things

This gym has a serious cleanliness issue. The dumbbell area smells so bad at times that a few of the weights are basically unusable because they make you gag. It doesn’t seem like equipment gets wiped down regularly, and I’ve never seen the owner clean after sweating all over benches and machines.
The owner sets the tone, and unfortunately it’s not a good one. He rarely cleans up after himself and spends more time on his phone than taking care of the space. On top of that, he has a habit of talking poorly about members once they walk out the door, which shows the level of respect he has for the ones keeping his lights on.
There also seems to be some sketchy, possibly illegal stuff being sold out of the cabinet by the desk. It feels shady and unprofessional. I also found it offputting having marijuana laid out freely at the employee desk and kratom drinks out where minors could easily grab them.
Overall, the gym feels sloppy and it's hard to recommend. Just expensive equipment sitting inside a dirty gym run by someone who doesn’t care.

I love this gym! I visit for two weeks out of the year and make it a point to train at Iron Therapy when I am visiting, even if I had to drive an hour each way with the bridge being out. Great atmosphere and the owners are just awesome people! There is no need to look at another gym, this is the one.

This is the best gym that I've ever gone to. So many amazing and unique equipment. You can tell how much the owners care, the place is always so clean. Plenty of spray bottles to clean. They always maintain the equipment and quickly repair and replace things. Very friendly environment. I’m a beginner and I feel very comfortable here. Just overall a good facility. And they have personal trainers too.

I first came to Iron therapy looking for personal training. I met Emmy and she was so friendly and welcoming that I signed up to do 10 sessions with her. By the end of 10 sessions I was hooked. I saw better muscle tone in all muscle groups, I was getting stronger and felt amazing. I immediately signed up for 10 more training sessions. I can't wait to see what happens. I love training with Emmy, she's taught me a lot about my strengths and weaknesses. She's easy to talk to and I don't feel embarrassed. Highly recommend this gym.

There has been a sign saying a new stair master was coming since February, a membership monthly is ~$75… for 1 working stair master. Majority of the machines are great. I don’t think there are enough cleaning products around the gym. Sadly there should be signs telling people to clean because they don’t. There is a suggestion box but never any paper or pen??? Disappointed for how much money it is and there is no locker room or any amenities but 24/7

FAVORITE GYM! Amazing facility with unique equipment and a friendly, experienced staff. I have never had to wait to use a machine due to overcrowding. The owner (John) is my personal trainer and nutritionist; I have never had better results! 💪🏼😤

First time there, and I did a day pass, and it was great. I’m so used to packed gyms and waiting 20 minutes for a machine. Here I wasted no time and finished all my workouts within a good amount of time. Definitely will be returning as a member from now on.

Absolutely thrilled with my experience at Iron Therapy! This place is a gem for fitness enthusiasts and content creators alike. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by an impeccably designed space that exudes both style and functionality. The modern, sleek decor, combined with state-of-the-art equipment, creates an atmosphere that is both motivating and visually stunning. The natural lighting + hex lighting throughout the gym is perfect, enhancing the space and ensuring you look your best while working out. Each corner is meticulously maintained and aesthetically pleasing, making it ideal for snapping those Instagram-worthy workout photos and videos. I highly recommend checking this place out if you haven’t!

If you’re serious about fitness, look no further.. Iron Therapy is the perfect gym for your goals. The owners are serious about helping you achieve your goals.. They personally designed this gym for the lifestyle fitness person and competitive athlete all in one. The small family atmosphere is welcoming and memberships will be limited to keep it from being too crowded like other facilities. The is the kind of place where everyone is family. Training and coaching will be available as well. I’ve been a client of theirs for a while and couldn’t be happier with my results.. I’m so excited to be able to work out at thier gym now too! Come check it out. You won’t be disappointed.

Been to many of the gyms in the area and nothing comes close to this place. Clean, friendly, and the best equipment by far, some you can't find in any other gym within the area. You also never feel like you have to fight for equipment. Not to mention the aesthetics are insane. John and Emmy have really built something special here and I highly recommend iron therapy to everyone

The best gym in the PNW.

Absolutely love this gym. There are so many different types of machines to choose from and don't get me started on the lighting! The owner's John and Emmy are amazing! They are so welcoming and helpful in and out of the gym. They offer workout plans, meal plans, and they also coach for body building shows. My husband and I have them for coaches and we went through our bodybuilding show together with them. They make something that seems so intimidating very easy. Their communication is great and detail oriented. I cannot sing their praises and their businesses enough.

If your looking for a gym that is not over populated, and with like minded / dedicated people look no further. The gym has a mix of anything for everyone mixing old school with the new school. Cleanliness and maintenance is one of their top priorities amongst helping you reach your goals. There is no lack of transparency here or false claims. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion come give it a shot and give yours.

The atmosphere alone makes this gym one of if not the best gym I’ve been to while being back in Washington. From the owners, to the gym equipment on hand, to the posing room and lighting. If you are looking for a gym that welcomes every level of trainee this one is for you. No judgement and the vibes are unmatched.
