I started seeing Nadia for active rehab for a chronic knee injury that I had struggled with for many years. In the past year working with her, I've made tons of progress and am able to be much more active than I ever thought I could be. Nadia has taken the time to get to know me and my goals and always comes up with creative exercises that are tailored to my abilities. She is always very enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and seems to know exactly how to keep me motivated! I would definitely recommend her to anyone recovering from (or managing) injuries, especially if you're are a bit nervous about getting back to an active lifestyle. I've learned a lot from working with her and feel a lot more confident about doing regular exercise.

Great professional for active rehab. I had consistent neck pain and Nadia helped me getting rid of it with the right exercises and life style adjustments. You of course have to put it in some work but if you're persistent it really works! I also heard great feedback from other patients who had surgery, physio, and years of struggles. After they worked with Nadia, doing the right exercises, they got rid of their pain. Pretty impressive. I didn't even know about kinesiology but seems a lot more effective then traditional methods as it prompts you to change 'from inside'.

I’ve been seeing Nadia twice a week, and she’s amazing! She’s passionate about her work, always learning, and truly cares about her clients’ success.

I used to be a high school athlete, but after tearing my ACL in university, I got pretty sedentary. Nadia helped me start running again and taught me the importance of proper rest. Now, I actually enjoy running and working out without overdoing it.

She’s honest, genuine, and not afraid to give you tough love when you need it. If you’re looking for someone who’s knowledgeable and supportive, Nadia’s the one!

I loved working with Nadia! I felt both challenged and like if something was hurting that I could speak up and she’d find a better alternative. She is very motivating and encouraging.

After my car accident, I continued to deal with shoulder and neck problems. A friend recommended Nadia for my ICBC active rehab kinesiology sessions. Since working with her, I have improved a lot, I have become stronger, and my pain is gone. I want to continue my fitness training with her to work on my strength and conditioning. I highly recommend her.

Very knowledgeable trainer, fun to work with. It took us a bit to get up to speed but I am now seeing some results. I have suffered from neck and lower back pain for years. Thanks to the exercises and overall suggestions she gave me I am getting better. I hope I will be able to completely get rid of my pain and gain a good posture, but I think it is a long term plan.

I've been fortunate to have Nadia as a kinesiologist for the last 2 months. She is very knowledgeable and attentive, and I've been making lots of progress in these two months with my knee injury after several surgeries and years of physiotherapy.

I've experienced chronic back/shoulder/neck pain for over a decade and have tried chiro, physio, and strength training, with little improvement. I realized I needed to start from rehab/the basics to learn and re-learn how to do basic movements and from there build up strength. Although it'll be a long journey to get to where I want to be, working with Nadia for the past few months has been a great start and I trust that she has the expertise, experience, patience, and compassion to help me get there. Something that sets Nadia apart from any other professional/trainer I've worked with is the extent of her care for her clients and her dedication and passion for her work, which translates into her going above and beyond for each session (e.g., doing research to address specific problems, preparing detailed plans for each session). I'd highly recommend Nadia to anyone who, like me, does not come from an athletic background, experiences chronic pain, and might be intimidated by jumping in to physical training.

Nadia is very passionate about getting me better and back to pain free. I've made a lot of progress in getting to pain free since working with her.

Nadia is deeply knowledgeable, clear, supportive, and helpful! I have been working out with bad form for years, and she has helped me to correct my habits and feel confident and powerful in my body, plus my habitual aches and pains are starting to disappear. Highly recommend her!
