​Born and raised in Winnipeg, MB Naomi moved to BC to complete both her undergraduate and masters degrees and swim competitively for the University of Victoria. For many years she worked in her capacity as a Kinesiologist teaching lifestyle bootcamps and doing personal training. This practice allowed her to grow her passion for motivating people to get the most out of life through activity and healthy living. After completing her Masters Degree in Physiotherapy in 2012 Naomi quickly became focused on Neuro Rehab. Over time treating people living with Parkinson’s disease has grown as both a focus of her passion, clinical work and post graduate education.

 

Naomi founded NeuroFit BC to allow her to better serve the Parkinson's population and as a platform on which to educate other health professionals. Naomi now spends her time teaching classes, treating clients and offering courses to health professionals about the incredible impact of exercise and neuroplasticity on those living with Parkinson's Disease. Naomi is an adjunct professor at the University of British Columbia where she teaches up-and-coming Physiotherapists the ins and outs of treating Parkinson's Disease through Exercise and Physiotherapy.

When not in the clinic Naomi can be found making faces with her little girls, practicing martial arts, walking her dog or racing in the pool.
