Hi, I'm Jillian Bergman Stow, Physiotherapist. I have a passion for staying fit and healthy, and ultimately helping older adults do the same. I’ve been a registered Physiotherapist since 2003 and am co-founder of PhysioCare at Home, an in-home physiotherapy company.
Time and again I have witnessed how movement & exercise can change lives, no matter your age. But many people don't know what to do or how to begin their exercise journey. That's exactly why I created Stronger at Home.
Stronger at Home Fitness Programs are rooted in Osteoporosis & Older Adult Exercise research and provide step by step guidance throughout your exercise journey.
Can't wait for you to join me in the journey!

WHAT REAL PEOPLE ARE SAYING!
After going through the Standing Strong program, I feel stronger and more confident in my ability to do exercises. I haven’t exercise in quite a while so going forward, I will be following the exercises that I learned in the program.
I enjoyed it and felt stronger after a few weeks of exercise. It was one of the best exercise programs I have taken. The program has made me realize that I can do things to make my body stronger, even though I am getting up in age. I would definitely recommend it to others.
I feel much better in general. Balance has improved greatly and the squats have done wonders for my knees. This program has given me more confidence in my daily ability. I would recommend this program for all seniors.
Overall I’m pleased that I did the course and I feel that my endurance and balance has improved. Would be interested in doing another program.
