To do rehabilitation work has been a dream of Melanie’s since she required the services herself after sustaining a serious injury as a teenager. She pursued this dream by getting a degree in Kinesiology, where she learned how exercise is essential to nearly everyone and its power to change lives. She has practiced this knowledge working as a Kinesiologist in a Physio clinic for several years, and also in a fitness centre setting, where she inspired people to change their sedentary habits. Melanie loves that Homebody Health reaches members of the population who can really benefit from exercise but may not receive it from other sources. Being in a client’s home allows her to work closely alongside the individual, allowing a relationship to develop while also meeting their unique needs. The home setting also allows her to be creative and innovative in the way she implements exercises that help clients improve their overall quality of life.
