Over the last few years Nick has been a massive help to me in dealing with injuries and niggles which are a part and parcel of being an athlete. Working with Nick we have developed strategies to trouble shoot little issues before they interfere with training and my race prep: he gets what I do and his understanding and interest makes him an integral part of my team.

Nick has been a great asset for my professional triathlon career. Through his chiropractic techniques, I have gained insight to functional movement and greater neural muscular recruitment. These techniques support my ultimate goal of becoming more efficient and consistent.

As a professional athlete, keeping my body healthy and injury free is critical for success. Working with Dr Studholme has been an important part of my total body care regimen and staying healthy. Dr. Studholme’s knowledge of the body and biomechanics allows us to treat the root of any problem and not just the symptoms. More importantly, working with Dr. Studholme keeps my body moving properly, helping me stop injuries before they occur…a benefit to athletes of all levels.

To be a successful professional athlete in 1q`the brutal sport of triathlon for 25+ years, I’ve had to build the very best team around me. Nick has been an instrumental part of my team. Nick has kept my body on track and muscles firing well into my 40s … Not an easy job!

It is very tough to explain in a paragraph the value and significance of Nick’s role in my career. Being in my 9th year as a professional soccer player in MLS I simply would not be in the position I am in without his guidance, expertise, and hands on activations and manipulations. It began when a chronic knee problem was thought to be season ending and a teammate of mine introduced me to Dr. Studholme. Within 2 weeks I was back on the pitch through hip and ankle mobility which is the approach Nick has mastered looking at the body as a whole to find the underlying issues. Through the years in vital periods of dealing with chronic groin pain and most importantly a severe concussion that threatened to end my career Nick has provided the answers with a pathway to full recovery. Having worked with many physios from US national teams and European clubs I can safely say Nick is world class at what he does, and anyone who works with him will be getting a very unique and most importantly extremely beneficial experience.

I was treated by Nick for 5 years. His knowledge, practical application and ability to implement specific treatment strategies is awesome. I have been a professional triathlete for 20 years and my body never functions better than when I get to see Nick for regular treatments.

I wanted to get help for my quadriceps pull because it is a chronic injury. I seem to injure it every two years or so and it means I miss games, earn less money, and am less likely to accomplish what I want to accomplish in the game. I decided to work with Dr. Studholme over other practitioners because I got a positive recommendation from one medical professional and another member of the professional soccer community. The biggest goal I wanted to accomplish was to become injury free. I’ve been injured recently, but when I am working with Dr. Studholme on a consistent basis, it is the best I have ever felt playing soccer. My goals were accomplished and I have gone about a year and a half of playing and being available for every practice session and game. I could see the results immediately. I could see the results over both a short and long period of time. The communication was very good. Dr. Studholme is always available to help no matter how far away I may be.  Also, he understands the athlete mindset, and furthermore he gives myself and the team things to work on outside of the office which feeds into self-reliance. I felt healthy, I played well and succeeded in becoming the All-Star player in 2015. I feel confident in my body and how it functions. I definitely would recommend Dr. Studholme to professional athletes and any one in between. Dr. Studholme knows how to get you healthy quickly and safely, and provides you with the tools to stay healthy.  I put my career in his hands and methods.

I’ve worked with Dr. Nick for the past 6 years. He has been very influential in helping me take my health to the next level not only working with current injuries but helping me prevent injuries too. I jokingly refer to him as the “guru” as his depth of knowledge and ability to help me when others have failed is amazing. When I have any injury he is one of the first people I call for guidance. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

I initially began working with the Doc when I had a groin injury that wasn’t getting better for 6 months. With his treatment and guidance, I was able to permanently get rid of that injury and it’s not bothered me since (going on 6 years). He has helped me identify areas that needed strengthening and work on the timing of muscles to improve my performance and reduce my injury risk. Anytime I’ve got an injury that is not recovering properly the Doc is the first person I’ll call. Working with Dr. Nick has been a real benefit to my career longevity.

After struggling with back and groin problems for years, Dr. Studholme’s impact was extremely significant on helping me continue to play at a high level in sport. His unique way of assessing the whole body rather than just the injury itself definitely helped relieve a lot of my pain. His training programs and regular communication have allowed me to stay on top of issues as much as possible. I would definitely recommend Dr. Studholme to people not just in sport, but any walk of life where someone feels they have a particular problem they can’t seem to shift.

I really value my health and recognize that it takes a team of people to help me have a long career. Dr. Nick is one of the few people I trust with my injuries. His blend of experience, expertise, and skill is why I continue to work with him and consult him when I’ve got any injury. His muscle activating techniques are amazing in combination with the right training.I highly recommend working with Dr. Nick even for the most complicated of injuries.

Firstly Nick is a top guy and very easy to work with , I came in contact with nick in 2012 when I had a very tricky injury in my foot. He was able to help me recover from an injury that kept me from playing for the previous 6 months. Working with Nick was super easy and I felt so comfortable. His approach is unique because he can pretty much do everything or everything needed to get you back fit , his manipulations of the foot are the best I have ever come across. Only downside he lives in USA!

Having been involved in professional football for 25 years, as a player, coach and as a physiotherapist, from the bottom tier through to the Premier league and International football I have had the opportunity to meet many people from all areas of the multidisciplinary team. This has included many world-renowned physicians, coaches, managers, sports scientists and strength and conditioning coaches.

In the last 2 years I have had the pleasure of meeting Dr Nick Studholme, a chiropractor out of Denver, Colorado USA. Dr Studholme has been responsible for the biggest change in my management of professional footballers both individually and collectively. I have taken several players with complex medical histories and Dr Studholme has delivered a clear pathway from bed to performance. I cannot speak highly enough about Dr Studholme from a personal and on a professional level and I have recommended his work to several top level teams, professional footballers, and professional athletes.

After two failed back surgeries, and continued pain, I started to explore alternative options that would help me heal long term, as opposed to short-term fixes. I was impressed with Nick’s focus, knowledge, and expertise after my first consultation.  His confidence in treating me in a non-surgical way was intriguing, and his plan of care was reasonable and achievable. The biggest goal I wanted to achieve was to be able to walk, and eventually run, without pain.  When I first started seeing Nick, I couldn’t stand up straight without pain.  I had sciatic pain that traveled down my right leg that was debilitating at times.  I had endured two microdiscectomies that resulted in re-herniated discs post-surgery.  I felt helpless, and that I was destined for a life of back pain and limited mobility.  My goal was accomplished and more.  Through working with Nick, I have regained full mobility and no longer suffer from pain.  I have learned how to manage when I do have the occasional tweak, and make adjustments.  Our relationship has evolved from the initial treatment for back pain to a much broader program that has taught me how to fully identify various triggers with my body and optimize my health and fitness. I went from walking at a 45 degree angle to running regularly. Nick is extremely thorough and always explains the physiology behind his techniques and practice. This was important, because as I healed, I learned how my body operates and what actions could cause a painful response, or conversely, how to move to properly support my lower back.  Having seen many other PTs in my life, I have never had this level of knowledge regarding my own condition and care.  As a result of working together, I lead an active and healthier life that includes running regularly.  I am training for my first half marathon, and I am pain free.  I continue to see Nick for minor adjustments – in my stride, pace, and cadence – as opposed to my lower back pain. I would absolutely recommend Nick to others, and do regularly.  He is not only my chiropractor, but a trusted advisor and friend when it comes to all aspects of my health.

My injury actually started as chronic foot issues.  I could not run on a regular basis and running became very painful. I chose Nick because he does not just treat the symptom but the root cause.  My calf may be hurting, but the root cause could be function of my glute or a certain repetitive motion during my run.  Nick will analyze the issue quickly and treat the underlying root cause. I wanted to be able to run year round.  I had never been able to do that.  I would get an injury leading up to a marathon and then have to take considerable time off after the race.  I can say that since working with Nick I have been running year round for at least the past 8 years. Nick not only treats the acute issue but also provides long-term strengthening or motion exercises that improve form/body performance long term. One visit usually corrects my current pain/ache/etc, but a regular basis of visits throughout the year keeps me feeling great and able to workout 5-6 days per week. I would recommend Dr. Studholme to others. He listens very well and the biggest thing for me is Nick has never said, I need you to stop doing something, take an aspirin and wait it out.  He gives active recovery movements and exercises that keep you going and solves the issue.

I chose to see Dr. Studholme for my groin injury because it had barely improved since it began and it felt different from any injury I have ever had before. My dad has a close relationship with the DU soccer coaches, who recommended I see Dr. Studholme for my injury. I wanted to be pain free and 100% ready for my fall soccer season. It is safe to say, I will be able to begin my season feeling like my old self again. The best part was the fact that I was subjected to very little additional pain. There was no dry needling, no injections, etc. The results were rapid improvement and a boost of confidence. I would definitely recommend Dr. Studholme to anyone I know. Your service is professional, effective, and of very high quality. I will definitely will come straight to you with any other muscle injuries in the future. Thanks to Dr. Studholme, I am looking forward to my soccer season knowing I can go out there and give my all.

I lived with crippling back pain for three years before I met Nick. I had always enjoyed a very active lifestyle – running, weight training, and traveling. The undiagnosed pain took this life from me. I had x-rays, numerous MRI’s, and even went to Mayo Clinic seeking help. I tried traditional and alternative treatments–pain killers, muscle relaxants, massage, acupuncture, spinal injections, prolotherapy, PRP and energy healers. I had lost all hope. It was only after I started working with Nick that the pain diminished and became manageable. Medical professionals everywhere should strive to acquire his knowledge and understanding of neuromuscular systems and functional movement. Nick is not satisfied with treating symptoms of pain. He is relentless in working to identify and treat the underlying causes of pain and to return his patients to an active lifestyle. Thanks Nick!

I chose to get help with my weight loss because I was not successful doing it on my own or through Weight Watchers.  I needed a coach and accountability, and I chose to work with Laura because I knew her and her style!

My main goal for our work together was to create a change in my eating habits and learn the tools to maintain my weight after achieving my goal.  I have accomplished that goal, and now I have go-to tools to implement each day.  I Lost 17 pounds!  I dropped two sizes and am very happy with my food choices each day.

The best part of our work together has been the weekly meetings and weigh-ins, the encouragement when I slipped and the direct, honest and kind communication about what I needed to change in the next week.  No blameful interactions, just encouragement!

I would absolutely recommend Laura’s services to others. The structure, encouragement and accountability were huge for me.  Laura’s low key personality and generous tips, and recipes were helpful.  As well, sharing her personal experiences with the Ideal Protein System helped me.

I had struggled for years, trying every diet and spending lots of money to only see half-hearted, half-successful results.  I was weighed, measured, starved, injected, pressured and persuaded by the fads.  All that, and nothing felt significant.  It was always 3 steps forward, 5 steps back. I ‘almost’ decided that the extra 40lbs was just something to get used to.  I ‘almost’ convinced myself I was just someone who didn’t have willpower and couldn’t commit.  This was intended to be a last resort.

Then I heard about Laura Brenner and Ideal Protein from a reliable source (my mother) who had seen a business associate be successful.  She told me, “Laura’s really cool.  You’ll like her.”  Let’s face it – she knows best!  I found Laura to be a perfect match in our very first meeting!  I didn’t feel pressured or cornered to buy in or sign up.  It was a perfect amount of education about the plan and excitement at its success.  I was convinced by the time we finished that I would be successful.

My biggest goal was to lose weight, but that was the goal that brought me in the door – the biggest goal I continue to WANT to achieve is to become healthy and make better decisions when it comes to my overall health and vitality.

I always have room for improvement and education, but I would say YES, I’ve DEFINITELY achieved my goal.

The best part of our work together was that Laura communicated well, helped me to feel better and got a result in a short amount of time.  She also knew when to hold me accountable and when to remind me that it’s not the end of the world when I flub up.  She is a balance!!

I would HANDS DOWN recommend Laura’s services to others!  She is so easy to talk to and is honest in her feedback.  Every other diet I tried, I’d ‘quit’ by week 6.  I came back not only for the results – but because I genuinely like her.

My weight kept increasing over the years (decades actually) and I was very uncomfortable, so something had to be done. I wanted to change my eating habits, not go on a diet.  I wanted a permanent change. I decided to work with Laura because I knew her previously as an excellent dentist, and I like her personally.  She is intelligent, sensitive and knowledgeable. Her care is excellent.  And she has the cutest dog…

My goal was to lose weight and keep it off with a lifestyle change. I attained my goal, and I am working on maintenance now and probably for the rest of my life.  Laura is very good at explaining how and why it works and is very understanding.  She is helpful and not judgmental, so her patients feel very comfortable and empowered to change.

Laura is intelligent, caring and very helpful.  We got results and it wasn’t all that difficult even in the beginning.  She helped me gain a much deeper understanding of the foods we eat and how they affect our mind, body and soul.  What I like about the Ideal Protein system is that it addresses sugar and carbohydrate intake.  I believe that excessive sugar is highly addictive and very dangerous.  This system intelligently addresses that issue and does so with great success.

I lost weight and kept it off with a lifestyle change, and I most definitely would recommend working with Laura for all the reasons articulated above.

I decided to get help for my weight loss after a 3-year failure to lose weight despite exercising, calorie counting, Weight Watchers, and a vegan diet for 3 months.  The referral to Ideal Protein came from a friend of a friend who was also successful with it.  My biggest goal was to lose weight and be able to fit into clothes that I had outgrown.  Thus far, I have lost 30 pounds over 3 months, and I’m still in the weight loss phase. An unexpected result was a vast improvement in my bilateral knee arthritis.  It was a painless weight loss process, and I would absolutely recommend Laura’s service to others.  Laura was kind, understanding, and a good teacher and coach.
