Who We Help
At One Step Physio & Fitness, our 1:1 strength and conditioning services are built for adults with Parkinson's Disease who want ongoing, expert coaching to get stronger and stay that way.
This service is a great fit if you don't currently need skilled physical therapy but you want a training program built by someone who understands Parkinson's. Many people start here after finishing physical therapy. Others come straight to training because they feel good right now and want to stay ahead of the disease.
You may benefit from strength and conditioning if you:
-
Want to keep the progress you built in physical therapy
-
Want to train with real intensity but aren't sure what's safe
-
Have tried a gym or personal trainer who didn't understand Parkinson's
-
Feel steady right now and want to protect that for as long as possible
-
Want a program that gets harder as you get stronger, not one that stays the same
-
Are tired of exercise sheets you were handed but never really taught
-
Want accountability and someone in your corner every session
-
Are ready to build a training habit you'll actually stick with
If your goal is to get stronger, stay independent, and keep doing the things you love for as long as possible, you're in the right place.
Nikki provides personalized 1:1 strength and conditioning focused on building power, strength, and endurance for adults with Parkinson's, coached by a doctor of physical therapy who is also a certified strength and conditioning specialist.
How We Help
At One Step Physio & Fitness, our 1:1 strength and conditioning helps adults with Parkinson's build the strength, power, and endurance to stay capable and independent for the long haul.

You might benefit from strength and conditioning if you're:

Ready to train but unsure how hard is too hard with Parkinson's
-
Looking for ongoing guidance after finishing physical therapy
-
Wanting to lift, move, and work at a real intensity with someone watching your form

Uncertain how to progress a program safely over months and years

Looking to build the physical reserve that makes daily life easier
During Your One-on-One Sessions, We Focus On:
Building Real Strength and Power
Progressive strength training that develops the leg, hip, and core strength behind standing up, climbing stairs, and staying upright.
Training Speed and Power, Not Just Strength
Working on how fast you can produce force, which is what your body relies on when you need to catch yourself or move quickly.
Conditioning and Endurance
Building the cardiovascular capacity that keeps you going through a full day without running out of gas.
Progressing You Over Months and Years
Adjusting your program as you get stronger, tracking what's working, and keeping the training challenging enough to matter.
Every session is one-on-one with a coach who is both a doctor of physical therapy and a certified strength and conditioning specialist.
