Testimonials

So I was referred to Three Peaks Kinesiology by my physiotherapist. I had been involved in a major car accident 4 months before. I had whiplash, neck tightness, shoulder soreness, constant headaches, lower back pains, this was a major change as I was usually very active with sports and life. I also have a physically demanding job as a heavy duty mechanic. I had reached a plateau in physiotherapy. I was told by my physiotherapist Chetan that I needed to do an active therapy program with Three Peaks Kinesiology to help me improve my strength and function further. Since I started my headaches are few and far between. My mobility has doubled and my pain has decreased to a point that I do not notice it most of the time. Through the simple but effective condition and Fascial Stretch therapy sessions that Paul put together for me I have seen major improvements in a short time. I have improved my muscular endurance, strength, and my overall health has improved. He also went further giving me simple recipes that are healthy quick and taste great, as my diet sucked before. He also talked about the importance of proper recovery and pain management and gave me tools to help. Overall my experience with Three Peaks Kinesiology and Paul has been phenomenal. I would recommend this program to anyone who is stuck in their rehabilitation and is willing to work hard and see great results.

Paul thanks again for helping me get my body back to feeling like it should.

Within the time I have spent at three peaks kinesiology I feel that my performance has improved a lot. I feel my body is stronger and leaner. Also healthier and more fit. The pace that we moved at was very good and working out was finally fun! I liked how I was challenged. This experience has allowed me to reach my Performance Peak. I look forward to coming back!

Thanks soooooo much Paul for all the work you have done. It is greatly greatly appreciated :)

From: Hillary Steffler 16 volleyball player

I am a 56 year old female who came to Three Peaks in the fall of 2007 with osteo-arthritis in my lower back. I wore orthotics, had pain in my right foot, my left knee didn't want to support me and my back ached constantly. My doctor said that exercise would help, so I went to the phone book and called Three Peaks. I was assessed and told that one leg was shorter than the other and my hips were pointing in different directions, and that exercise and something called "stretch therapy" would help. This journey with Travis has been tremendous - I no longer need orthotics, my knee is normal, I have minimal foot discomfort, my legs are the same length and my hips point in whatever direction they're supposed to! Stretch therapy is excellent! I was never a fan of exercise, but I feel so good now, I look forward to it. When I jump off the table at the end of a session, I feel like I'm 16 again. Highly recommended - especially for people my age who are living with assorted aches and pains, and hobbling around. You will move better and feel better!

I am a 58 year old woman whom decided I definitely needed some help in getting physically fit. As we all know, things do not stay in place when we get older unless we work on them!
I am very proud to say I am a cancer survivor which left me with medical issues which exercising is the only answer in overcoming these.
I have been working with Paul now for one month and with his patience, guidance and support I have lost 4% of my body fat and 20 inches.
I feel better, have much more energy and know in the next few months I will look much better physically with continuing this program.

Thank you Paul

It’s a joy to think of working out since beginning with Paul. I love how adaptable he makes my workout routines so I can take them on the road. Besides regaining agility after a troublesome injury, I have lots of energy to keep up my busy pace. Bonus is losing 17 inches in 6 weeks. How good can it get!!
