Monica Canhoto

Monica has a bachelor’s degree in psychology with a minor in Public Health from Montclair State University. During her undergraduate studies, she began working with patients in a physical therapy setting and grew to love the field. During this time, Monica began to recognize the hesitation patients had about post rehabilitation exercise and decided to take her career studies further. She went on to receive her Personal Training Certification as well as a certification in Corrective Exercise and with these she started to coach patients through safe and specialized exercises designed for their goals while keeping in mind their post injury concerns. Monica has now been working in Physical Therapy for over six years and continues to safely coach clients through post rehabilitation exercise. While she loves the medical field, Monica feels strongly about dedicating her time to making personal training clients feel confident not just in themselves, but in their coaches as well. At Eastpointe Health and Fitness, she strives to utilize her knowledge and continue to motivate all clients to keep active in a safe and comfortable environment.
