			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>After the session I felt energized and hopeful again. I feel so blessed that you are in my life. Thank you. Simone is just an Angel of God.<br />
</em><strong>Maggie,Cancer Patient, Calgary 2009<br />
</strong><em></p>
<p>The results from therapy sessions with Simone have been amazing. The athletes I referred to Simone state they have never felt healthier after a treatment. The results orientated therapy demonstrates a focused, enthusiastic and passionate approach to facilitating function and recovery from sports injuries. Each treatment is unique, can be challenging for the patient, fun and always a learning experience. Simone somehow gives my athletes incredible energy, balance and wellness. As a strength coach, I have complete confidence in referring any current athlete or former player to SFT.<br />
</em><strong>Preston Greene, Strength and Conditioning Coach &#8211; Stanford University Athletics 2009.</strong><em></p>
<p>After 2 years of consistent treatment sessions with Simone, my back and shoulder injuries have virtually disappeared. I had 2 bulging discs and a rotator cuff tear. SFT (Simone Fortier Technique) was the perfect choice for therapy, rehabilitation and prevented unwanted surgery. I currently am on a maintenance program as I want to remain pain free and active. I am now able to exercise and back to playing golf.<br />
Thanks Simone.<br />
</em><strong>Bob Rishwain &#8211; 2009 Indian Wells and Stockton California.<br />
</strong><em></p>
<p>I am truly amazed at my golf game, I am 62 years old. I am pain free and playing better than I have in 20 years. A radiologist saw my MRI and stated that he can’t believe I am not in a wheel chair. I shot 68 today March 14, 2009 the best score of my life. Simone’s treatments keep me walking, playing golf and winning. I am a true believer in her abilities. I will be on the maintenance program for life.<br />
</em><strong>Chuck Stewart &#8211; Indian Wells CA and Chicago, IL.<br />
</strong><em></p>
<p></em></p>
<p><em>Meeting Simone, and switching to her approach to treatment of muscle tension and fascial restriction was a real breakthrough for me.</p>
<p>As a physician, I can understand the approach she uses in her treatments, but even with my medical training, I was skeptical that a skilled laying on of hands could make such a difference&#8230;until I had experienced it for myself. Part of the healing that Simone accomplishes is also due to her holistic approach to her clients&#8217; lifestyles, stress management and self-care. Truly the whole package.<br />
Simone is truly a caring, skilled and effective therapist. I recommend her without hesitation.</em><br />
<strong>(Dr.) Deb Putnam</strong></p>
<p><em>Simone has that delicate ability to intuitively, yet aggressively, re-work the tissue of the body to achieve vast improvement in range of motion for professional and aging athletes, mitigate muscle tightness and tension and ease emotional and mental strain, in a professional and caring manner. I highly recommend this exceptionally intelligent and gifted individual.</em><br />
<strong>Cheryl of Wyoming </strong></p>
<p><em>Simone Fortier is bright, clearly tenacious and gifted in healing. She is often wise beyond her years and capable of extraordinary compassion.</em><br />
<strong>Ina of Phoenix<br />
</strong></p>
<p><em>Simone Fortier is much more than an excellent physical/manual therapist. Simone is a PROFESSIONAL HEALER. She is knowledgeable about the body. She has paid the price, done the work, the study and the practice and is prepared to deal with it, whatever your problem may be&#8230; If you need it she will be the first to recommend that you get medical help. My wife cancelled the scheduled operation on her bunions due to Simone’s Therapy .Of course we are prejudiced but we give her a Five Star recommendation.</em>  <strong><br />
Gene and Jerry Ann Woodfin, Palm Desert, Ca<br />
</strong></p>
<p><em>I would like to tell you thank you. First of all, thank you for being so heads up about the well being of your clients! You had noticed a couple of moles on my back and said, “ I should have them checked out”. I had them removed and one was melanoma cancer. The doctor said,” It was good I came in when I did, we caught it at the early stages and it was only surface.”<br />
Many thanks and especially for being responsive to my health needs. </em><br />
<strong>K. Braaten, Phoenix AZ<br />
</strong></p>
<p><em>I have been receiving treatment from Simone for approximately four months and her therapy has literally changed my life. During the years I have sought treatment for my shoulder from physical therapists, Rolfers and osteopaths. None have been able to eliminate or even relieve my pain. Simone, through structural reintegration has been able to release the muscles. My shoulder is no longer elevated and my pain has been eliminated.</p>
<p>Simone’s knowledge of structural anatomy and her intuitive blend of disciplines create a healing synergy not available in a single therapy.</em><br />
<strong>R. Young, Phoenix AZ</strong></p>
<p><em>Simone has been getting my body out of trouble for over 10 years, always addressing me in a non-patronizing way, reminding me what my body needs and what I should be doing to supply those needs without being judgmental.</p>
<p>Simone has the innate ability to get to the root of your problem, not just masking them with surface manipulations. Without saying a word; Simone can locate and work with the presenting problem, I believe this is due to her excellent knowledge base, intuitive abilities and continual pursuit of information. Simone is the consummate professional who studies constantly to perfect her craft.</em><br />
<strong>Myron Franks<br />
Business Owner Calgary</strong></p>
<p><em>I was in significant pain, despite having recent shoulder surgery. Within a few treatments, Simone was able to eliminate my pain and since then I have been pain free.</p>
<p>I would highly recommend her to anyone who is experiencing any type of pain due to injury or chronic illness.<br />
</em><strong>M.K.R. Phoenix AZ</strong></p>
<p><em>Simone is by far the “ultimate” practitioner. She is truly an expert in her field. As a strength and performance trainer, I highly believe in manual therapy as an aid in increasing recovery from training, injury prevention and improved flexibility P. Owens Strength Coach, AZ</p>
<p>Simone you have given me hope that I can be pain free and lead a normal life. </em>Gary Delleres, Arizona</p>
<p><em>I really want to thank you for being responsible for how much better I feel. I look back and I realize that I had wasted a year and a half of my life trying to recover from injuring my neck. I had seen two doctors, tried several prescriptions, had many physical therapy sessions, as well as many osteopathic manipulation treatments. After just one visit to you, I was amazed that I had actually regained about 90% of the mobility in my neck.<br />
</em><strong>B. Fazio Phoenix AZ.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><em>I was impressed with the way in which you use all your knowledge of diverse therapeutic techniques to suit the type of chronic injury and Pain I had. I do not know exactly what you did but what matters; the most is that I saw results.</em><br />
<strong>Andre Benoit, Canadian National Luge Coach.</strong></p>
<p><em>I have been suffering severe post concussion symptoms and several old muscular injuries, when I started working with Simone. In my first visit I did not know what to expect. It turned out to be an experience like not other I have had before. For the first time, I felt as thought I was being healed. My body was constantly making changes throughout our session. By the end I had great pain relief in my neck as well as increased clarity in thought and energy. This was all very exciting, considering, I had sought out the help of physical therapist, strength coaches, chiropractors and medical experts with very limiting results. Currently, I am in the best shape of my life. I owe much of my success to the work of Ms. Fortier. She has an amazing ability to read and understand the body and its needs. Now seeing her effect on me, I knew I had to start referring. I am telling you that if you are serious about your health and obtaining any physical goal that you must go through at least one session with Simone to experience what I have.<br />
</em><strong>JH,Conditioning Coach, Arizona</strong></p>
<p><em>If soft tissue therapists were film directors, Simone would be a Spielberg.</em><br />
<strong>Larry Day Movie Show Calgary AB</strong></p>
<p><em>Simone after teaching at the Kirby Centre for seniors in Calgary a survey from our members on the interest in the Alternative Health Care programs given at the Kirby Centre recently has proved that this is a subject that seniors find most valuable.</p>
<p>Once again we would like to thank you for your very interesting and enlightening program, and trust that should we decide to offer this program again in the future we can count on your participation.</em><br />
<strong>Ellen Brennan<br />
Education Committee</strong></p>
<p><em>Simone, on behalf of Calgary track West we would like to thank your for the sports therapy service you provided. The athletes really appreciated it.</p>
<p>Thank you again for your support.<br />
</em><strong>Claudia Kwakkel<br />
Meet director<br />
Calgary Track West</strong></p>
<p><em>I have experienced a powerful change over the course of my therapy. I am continually experiencing the result of your work. I will recommend your services to other athletes in my sport.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Often traditional approaches to healing address only the physical body.  In my experience healing takes place in the body on several different dimensions or different levels.  Injuries and illness may have several  underlying causes or catalysts including physical, mental , emotional and spiritual trauma. The bodies ability to heal and regenerate has been proven and is a scientific fact.  When healing does not occur it is to our advantage to look deeper into the cause of the illness or injury and what is interrupting this natural process.  Interuptions in the natural process of regeneration can be eliminated or resolved with therapy, treatment and self examination. It has been my experience that Change can occur if one is willing to challenge themselves to grow and learn. This path lightens the spirit and challenges the mind.</p>
<p>I will be sharing information on treatments and therapies that can facilitate healing on your journey.</p>
