Exercise Physiology - Strength & Conditioning-Based Rehabilitation for Injuries

As an experienced Exercise Physiologist, I offer strength and conditioning-based rehabilitation tailored to individuals dealing with both chronic and acute injuries.

If you are experiencing pain, injury, or discomfort from a past or recent cycling incident, I encourage you to reach out for a consultation. Together, we’ll design a rehabilitation plan that supports your recovery and gets you back to your best performance.
