Description<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wellness consulting is offered through two specialized approaches:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Fitness & Wellness Coaching: Professional strength training and fitness coaching tailored to both general and specific populations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

    These services help individuals achieve balance in their bodies, relieve pain, reduce stiffness, rehabilitate injuries, and manage complex pain conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Area of Expertise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Since 2017, I have specialized in working with people who suffer from Parkinson\u2019s disease. I have experience helping individuals develop movement and fitness regimens that are effective, appropriate, and enjoyable. I support people in increasing balance, reducing tremors and stiffness, enhancing strength, decreasing pain, and alleviating fatigue. Over time, my sessions help restore confidence, self-esteem, and physical ability. I also assist individuals in improving their sleep quality and achieving deeper rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I help people return to or establish new activities that bring joy and fulfillment to their lives. I hold a degree in Kinesiology from UBC and am a practicing kinesiologist with the British Columbia Association of Kinesiologists. Additionally, I am certified in advanced shiatsu and attended Ohashi\u2019s Parkinson\u2019s program in Vienna in 2019. I offer myotherapy, have worked with BC\u2019s regional chronic pain director at VGH, presented research ideas to the Pacific Parkinson\u2019s Research Centre, and attended PPRC lectures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
