Testimonials
"Training with Nicole Jaffke has changed my life. I was struggling with chronic shoulder pain due to a work injury. Nicole’s training helped me recover beyond my wildest dreams. Not only was I pain-free, I was also stronger than I was pre-injury. I transitioned from being a physical therapy patient to a personal training client of Nicole’s. I was a stranger to the word prehab before meeting Nicole. I truly think working to strengthen my body with Nicole has prevented other injuries from occurring. She always answers any question I may have with a smile on her face. She can even make you laugh when you’re doing a hard set. I feel so lucky to have such a qualified, knowledgeable individual helping improve my body." --Chrissy Lamendola
"Nicole is so honed in to how connected the body is that she can often pinpoint the root problem quickly and effectively, even when it isn't obvious. Because of this gift, she is able to solve little issues before they become big injuries, and she does so with caring and attentiveness that is unmatched. Nicole is the ultimate partner in keeping me healthy and ready to run fast. I would recommend her to any one who's looking for injury free, top performance." --Lauren Holtvoigt
"I sprained my ankle playing soccer and knew I needed an alternative approach when the PT through my insurance told me I needed to rest for 6 weeks. I had a backpacking trip planned in 2 weeks that I really didn't want to miss. I'm so thankful I found Nicole. She figured out I ruptured my ATFL (without an MRI) and got me on a proactive strengthening/healing plan. Thanks to her creative approach and skillful ART/massage, I was able to speed up recovery time and complete my backpacking trip pain free!" --Shamli Tarbell
