Testimonials : Medical Exercise Training
Johanna came to my rescue after my reverse shoulder replacement. She thoroughly assessed all my joint issues (multiple replacements) and has brought me to full range of motion and good muscle strength where I had almost none. She has worked gently and patiently with me for over 18 months. She is now preparing me for another joint replacement and I know I will be in the best possible shape because of her. Johanna is committed to safety and excellence in her training and even makes it fun!

Johanna’s expertise and personality have been the perfect fit for me. We have been working on acute injury repair, chronic illness patterning and future preventative support. Using a detailed medical, home and lifestyle assessment process, Johanna has designed a series of exercises that can easily be done anywhere, even if it’s just in bed on those bad days. They are tailored to my own abilities and limitations, which means it’s easier to be diligent and work towards my goals. It’s also really great having a personable trainer encouraging me on my path to recovery and fitness. Her knowledge and enthusiasm is inspiring. Johanna is definitely the person to go to for post-op/injury support, but perhaps more importantly, the person to go to make sure that injuries and surgeries do not have to happen in the first place."

"I engaged Johanna Hestler to work with my father. He has Parkinson’s disease and needed help with his flexibility, mobility and stability. Additionally, his communication and cognitive skills were deteriorating. Johanna was up to the challenge and through her gentle and patient approach towards addressing my father’s needs has been able to assist him in all areas. Her caring and positive demeanor has earned my father’s respect and regard. He looks forward to her sessions with him and I do as well. I would not hesitate to recommend Johanna for a range of client needs. Her experience and sensitivity allows her to develop responsive programs for her many clients."

"Johanna worked with me for many months to improve my general posture but also to successfully resolve rotator cuff problems that had troubled me for years. She created an individual program that provided a thorough and stimulating exercise program that I could work with at home or in the gym. She always instructed, encouraged and supported my progress with expertise and concern for my health and well-being."
