FOR TEAMS
If you or your kid is part of a team or if you are a coach this section is for you.
The world of sport can be complex at times. There are many factors to consider when it comes to performance, injury prevention, and safety. Sport is about way more than performance. At the end of the day we are humans first and our health always comes first. At Inspire Health & Performance we are all about looking at the big picture and do the same with our sports teams.

Our Google Reviews
Since Mike helped my husband recover from and manage severe sciatic pain, I’ve been to him myself and have recommended him to multiple people. He is friendly, compassionate, considerate, and extremely passionate about his craft, and approaches physiotherapy from a total wellness perspective. I had issues with neck / shoulder pain and tension, as well as knee pain, and he helped me track the source of these issues from head to toe. He also took my entire lifestyle into consideration when building a program I could realistically execute. I trust him completely and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a physiotherapist.

I invited Mike from Inspire Performance to create and deliver a session on Wellness for the Rona Inc. Western Distribution network. Mike is knowledgeable, professional and easy to work with. He checked in often about the content of the presentation to ensure it was what we envisioned, and his communication was clear and timely. The content of the presentation was informative, concise and appealing to a diverse audience – he even developed a worksheet for the participants to work through during the presentation and it supported participant learning. I highly recommend Inspire Performance for their approach to wellness and their ability to engage learners on what can sometimes be an intimidating topic. Well done Mike and team!

Mike’s commitment to his clients is second to none!
I have been working with Mike Azzopardi over the past 12 months, I now would consider him a friend. My history as an athlete provided numerous opportunities to works with many sports Physio and medical professionals. Mike’s commitment to adapt his knowledge along with the will and determination he has for his clients welfare results in the self inspiration, allowing his clients to meet their goals. I feel Mike cares for each and everyone of his clients. In a world where the basic human interaction are being forgotten mike methods I have found have been life changing in my ability to function.

Mike is a committed coach who really listens to and works with an athlete to accomplish their goals. He helps strike a balance between what you want to do (run all the kilometers in my case) and what your goal is (get to the start line healthy and hopefully fast). He cares a lot and is very invested in his clients.
I started working with Mike as a physiotherapist after several injuries and then he started coaching me back to running. With his help and plan, I accomplished my goal of getting back to running a sub 3 hour marathon after not running a marathon for 1.5 years. I ran a 2:56:51 marathon at the 2023 Saskatchewan Marathon and was the second place female! Working with Mike was important part of making this happen.

Over the years, I’ve had several physiotherapists due to sports injuries. Mike is knowledgeable and stays updated with the latest research. What also stood out to me was his holistic approach. Appreciate your support!
