New from a client: "I am 79 years old and have been working with Jennifer for 1.5 years. While I have a very busy and active life, I have several medical issues including a knee replacement, osteoarthritis in the other knee, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and a mild aortic stenosis. The thing I appreciate most about my time with Jennifer is the care and consideration she shows toward me while I am exercising. There is never a time when she is not paying extremely close attention to whether my body is in the correct position. For this reason, I feel completely safe while I am in her presence. Overall, I feel much more confident and competent physically since we began working together. I am an avid hiker, and I have found that since working with Jennifer I respond more favourably to the challenges of hiking, especially climbing hills. As well, my posture has improved and I find that the aches and pains I experience from sitting through the many meetings required by my activist work dissipate much more quickly than before. I intend to continue being active and engaged with the world, and I thank Jennifer for contributing to my ability to achieve this goal!" -Christine M., Community Activist Retired Mental Health Program Coordinator
