BIO

Nurit received a doctorate in physical therapy from the University of Pittsburgh in 2002, practicing as an orthopaedic PT in upstate New York for 10 years. In 2012, she moved with her family to Montreal and built a thriving private practice. During the past 20+ years, Nurit has expanded her expertise in manual therapy through post-graduate training in ART (active release technique), MET (muscle energy technique), the mulligan technique, Graston technique, neuromobilization, vestibular rehabilitation, and the scoliosis protocol. Her clients range from the sedentary office worker to elite athletes.

Nurit believes that exercise is an essential part of rehabilitation. Without it, it's difficult to maintain the benefits of manual therapy and even harder to prevent future injury. While studying the scoliosis protocol, she fell in love with Pilates as a way to correct and improve posture through stretching and strengthening the skeletal muscles down to the deep stabilizers. Since then, Nurit has studied STOTT Pilates, with a focus on Rehab Pilates.

Adding Pilates to her repertoire was a natural progression from her days as an orthopaedic PT as this exercise modality offers the perfect balance of strength and stabilization. With her two decades of clinical experience of assessing and treating movement and function, she is able to use a diverse set of exercise and therapeutic approaches to help her clients safely reach their physical goals while always respecting their limits.

Nurit is a member of the Ordre professionnel de la physiothérapie du Québec (OPPQ) and a certified Pilates instructor.
