I found Nadia through an ICBC injury and she's been amazing in helping me reduce my pain, regain mobility and build strength on my way to recovery. Nadia is wonderful to work with and adapts each session to my specific needs and makes sure I do the movements correctly. She's very knowledgeable and thoughtful in her approach and I feel in great hands with her.

I had ongoing back and neck pain from long hours at a desk, and a friend recommended UP Athletics & Rehab in Vancouver. Working one-on-one with a registered kinesiologist has been life changing. My posture has improved, my pain has decreased, and I feel stronger overall. The Kitsilano location is convenient, and the personal attention made it much easier to stick with the program. A great choice for kinesiology in Vancouver.

I’m a senior in Vancouver and started Active Rehab with Nadia at UP Athletics & Rehab. She’s a registered kinesiologist who’s patient, clear, and encouraging. I’m steadier on stairs and walking farther. If you need a caring Kinesiologist in Kitsilano/Vancouver, I highly recommend Nadia and her small local practice.

I came to UP Athletics & Rehab in Vancouver for ICBC active rehab after a workplace accident. My kinesiologist created a program that helped me regain strength and mobility so I could return to work without pain. The one-on-one approach was supportive and motivating, and I felt steady progress week after week. The Kitsilano location is convenient, and it’s a much more personal experience than a large clinic. Highly recommend for anyone in Vancouver needing active rehab or kinesiology

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!
