I have had my fair share of nagging pains since I started cycling at the elite level. What changed this past year is that I started seeing Dave - he didn't try mask the problems I had, he treated them and looked for the root cause. This approach is not shared by all physiotherapists and often left me with unexplained pains that were treated week after week without any improvement. Dave has been a key part of my success this past year.”

I push my body 20 to 25 hours a week in training while striving to achieve my goals as a professional triathlete. Week after week, that rigorous work load tends to significantly beat me up, as a result I have seen my fair share of physio therapists. Last year I made the switch to Dave Holmes because he looks to fix the problem by correcting muscle imbalances, not using 'band aid' techniques that require constant treatment. Dave challenged me to think about exercise differently, gave me the tools to properly heal my body and has helped me become stronger than ever before. After the first year with Dave I have become more body aware and focused during my training, not just on technique but breathing, recovery and nutrition. As I look forward to make the leap to Victoria I will miss working with Dave but will still see him on every visit to Calgary as he has become more then a just my physiotherapist, he has become an advisor and friend.

”Dave is much more than a physiotherapist for me. He has been an essential tool to get me through my injuries over the past year. He understands me as an athlete and works with me to manage and treat my injuries and prevent new ones from sneaking up. Dave is very smart, and has a holistic approach that is unlike anyone else I have worked with. He spends time with each patient to listen to them and offers solutions on how to get better and stay healthy, not just a quick fix. He examines the problem from several avenues to treat the cause of the problem. I was very impressed by Dave's use of modern scientific techniques combined with proven methods. I started seeing Dave during a serious injury and now I'll continue to see him throughout my athletic career. Finding a friend and therapist that you trust 100% is rare, but I have found that with Dave. Thanks Dave for helping bring me back to the world stage!”
