I don't even know where to begin…read more I came to see Maha a couple years ago complaining of severe bloating, abdominal pain and diarrhea. We met to go over my symptoms more carefully and potential reasons for this constant discomfort. Maha recommended food allergy testing to see if my symptoms were related to something I was eating, which made sense in my mind since it was stomach-related. So I did the test, left her office, and waited for the IgG food allergy results. Including the consultation and allergy test, I owed about $500 after our first meeting. I was so desperate I didn't even care. I am a student, clearly don't have a lot of money, but I felt it was my only option so I was willing to pay anything. A couple weeks later I received an e-mail of my results. I opened the document and was shocked. According to this report, I was basically allergic to everything: gluten, dairy, eggs and even random food like bananas! If anyone is interested I can send you my report. It is shocking. After reviewing the results on my own I returned to meet Maha. She confirmed the test results and said i should ELIMINATE all of these food that I was "highly allergic" too. I followed her recommendation (being so desperate for help from my discomfort) hoping that drastically altering my diet would provide me with some relief. Initially meeting Maha at 105 pounds (5'8) I was very slim from the constant bloating which suppressed by appetite. I followed Maha's recommendations for nearly a year hoping it would help over time. It didn't. Needless to say, I deprived myself from several food groups hoping to eliminate my symptoms but they still persisted. I never saw Maha during this year because I couldn't afford it. Months later, at 95lbs, I needed help. My family was concerned for my health because I continued to lose weight. I ended up seeing a new GP in Toronto, who told me that food allergy testing is "invalid". When I heard this, I was in shock. There I was with my 3pg report showing him all the foods that I am allergic too and he told me that this form of food allergy testing is basically "not scientifically supported". I had no idea about this, taking Maha's words that the test was valid. See other stories if interested: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/health-and-fitness/tests-for-food-allergies-sensitivities-a-waste-of-money-doctor-says/article535082/ My GP told me to start reintroducing these foods, in order to help broaden my diet and help me gain back weight. He also noted something that Maha had never emphasized before, this being "the mind-body connection". To make a long story shorter, my abdominal discomfort and constant diarrhea was the result of chronic anxiety, not food allergies. Now taking Zoloft, my symptoms have subsided. I am gaining weight back and am able to participate in normal everyday activities that I used to miss out on because I was constantly ill. Maha did not inform me about the validity of food allergy testing. Being so desperate for answers, I took her word for it and literally deprived myself of essential food groups. I basically paid Maha hundred of dollars for her to misinform me, and ruin a year of my life.

Maha Nasr is outstanding. Consulted her regarding an acid reflux problem. She provided me with a…read morefew easy nutritional steps, that within a week "turned around" the condition. I appreciated her warmth and compassion, along with her high professionalism and competency. Maha Nasr is a licensed nutritionalist. However, her medical degree from a renowned school and her experience as a physician set her apart. She stresses she is not practicing as a physician and does not prescribe medications. I highly recommend Maha Nasr and her stance that proper nutrition can turn around health conditions that pharmaceuticals fail to prevent or cure. S. Zikry, Ph.D.

I love Jessica! I've been seeing her twice a week since the beginning of the year. I haven't been…read moregreat about doing a lot of healthy stuff and exercising outside of seeing her, truthfully. But I see the difference. After only twice a week. She works with where you are that day and is able to do that on the fly. Your middle aged random whatever ache is flaring up, we can deal with that! I am leaner and i see the muscle definition that I haven't seen in awhile, living through an extremely high stress job and the pandemic and not really taking care of myself. She also has an app where she can put your extra workouts or morning stretching routine or whatever you need. I reached out to a number of trainers when I was looking for someone and she was the first one I actually met with in person. And I knew she was my person. I didn't meet with anyone else. And I have worked with a lot of trainers at various places in my life and fitness regime. She was my trainer. I knew when I met her. You will probably get more than your money's worth if you go to Jessica. She genuinely cares and will put effort into extra research on what you are going through or giving you programs to do on your own. She will give you as much or as little extra support as you need. She is also a genuinely good human I enjoy seeing. So definitely reach out to her if you are looking for a trainer!

Aside from working out with her, she gives you access to an app with a personal exercise program to do on your own, a food log, and other helpful resources. She's knowledgeable and creative and doesn't push anything so far that you can't move the next day or that you'll hurt yourself. She's also great at working around injuries if that's a concern. I've referred two others to her who only have great things to say as well.

Leslie--once again--thank you for your time and advice.

From my past experience with personal trainers, Alan stands out as THE BEST one I've ever had. He took the time to understand my fitness goals and tailored the workouts to meet my personal needs. While we met only once a week for an hour, he kept me accountable throughout the week as I had to take a picture of EVERYTHING I ate and send it to him. He also checked-in with me on my stress levels (where at times, were pretty high), and the amount of sleep I got every night. Because of Alan's holistic approach (physical, nutrition, stress-management, and sleep), what I thought was impossible when we started became a reality almost seven months later as I was able to not only reach my goal weight but GO BEYOND it. YEAAAHH!!! We did it...TOGETHER!! Thanks Alan! Before I trained with Alan for 30 sessions, I also trained with Eric for 10 sessions. Eric was great in making sure the workout/movements/weight-lifting that I did was not causing any physical injury, which is common for any athlete. He also made sure I was feeling the muscle(s) working and wasn't doing the repetitive motion mindlessly--these were lessons that I took with me when I trained with Alan. Although I did not feel Eric was a right fit to help me reach my fitness goals, he is a trainer that I would recommend for someone who is already a personal trainer looking to improve their own training or getting back to working out after an injury. I am grateful for Eric's part of my fitness journey! Lastly, I want to mention the InBody machine at FITting Room Fitness Studio. You stand on the machine and it gives you a breakdown of your muscle, bone, fat, and water weight. You are also able to see your how much muscle you have on your right and left arms, trunk, and legs. The assessment is insightful because you can see the breakdown on how much muscle, bone, and fat you have in your body and how much weight you need to lose and muscles you need to gain. Remember, your weight is more than just a number! When I went on a cruise last year, the fitness guy was promoting the InBody assessment for $149 USD per person but as a discount for attending the fitness seminar it was only $99.99 USD for two people. I am so happy I got to do this assessment MONTHLY for FREE as part of my training. This alone makes FITting Room Fitness Studio stands out as a premier personal training studio. And... in case you were wondering, the fitness studio and bathrooms are clean. ;) Happy Training!
