About CANSPORTS
The Heart Behind CANSPORTS
CANSPORTS was born from my own journey—a path marked by frustration, resilience, and a deep desire to help others reclaim control over their bodies and their lives. I understand firsthand what it feels like to struggle with chronic inflammation, recurring injuries, and the unpredictable changes that come with different life stages. My personal battles—with weight gain after pregnancy and now menopause, back and knee pain, a broken foot, hip surgery, food allergies, and most recently, an unknown autoimmune condition—have shaped every aspect of what CANSPORTS is today.
History
For over 15 years, I’ve worked closely with individuals navigating similar challenges. Their stories, along with my own, have helped refine a wellness approach that’s real, practical, and sustainable. CANSPORTS isn’t just another program—it’s a deeply personal, tried-and-tested system designed to meet people where they are, with compassion and care. Whether through movement therapy, Pilates, functional rehabilitation, or nutritional guidance, we offer integrative solutions that address the whole person.
I believe that true transformation happens when training, nutrition, and lifestyle are aligned. That’s why I’m proud to now work alongside Dr. Cindy Le, whose expertise in wellness and acupuncture brings even greater depth to what we offer. Her personalized approach helps support healing from within—addressing inflammation, hormonal balance, and internal wellness alongside physical recovery.

Together with Dr. Cindy, we’re here to walk with you on your path to healing and strength; offering hope, confidence, and the tools you need to take charge of your health.
