Aditi Kapoor is one of Ekinox’s co-owners and co-founders, alongside Maxime Besner. She completed her master's degree at McGill University in 2013 and began working in Vaudreuil. In 2015, she became the head of the physical therapy department and continued to look for new ways to challenge herself until she became a partner in the company in July 2019!

Aditi has completed her levels 1, 2, and 3 in manual therapy with the Association Québécoise de Physiothérapie Manuelle Orthopédique (AQPMO). She is passionate about complicated shoulder cases, and has completed motor control training with Shirley Sahrmann and Jeremy Lewis. She continues to expand her knowledge through continuing education and learning from her colleagues.

To take care of her mental and physical health, Aditi has been doing hot yoga and improving her practice for over 7 years. In December 2019, she successfully turned her personal passion into a professional skill by completing a medical yoga therapy course.

Another activity that helps Aditi recharge her batteries is hiking! In September 2020, she and her boyfriend spent two weeks in the Gaspé and managed to hike 13 times for a total of 76.8 km! She finds it a great way to take a break from her mind, but also to challenge her body to another level!

Angela is a 2021 graduate from the University of Montreal with a masters in physiotherapy. She is very happy to start her career at Ekinox after falling in love with the clinic and the team during one of her internships for school. She is very excited for this new chapter in her life and is looking forward to learning even more to help guide her clients on their journey to wellbeing.

Ever since she was little, Angela has stayed grounded at home by baking up a storm (and enjoying the fruits of her labour!), as well as playing with her two cats.  She also loves spending time with her friends trying out new restaurants, going to the beach and spending weekends at the cottage.

Angela is open-minded and always up for an adventure. Whether it’s white water rafting, canoe camping trips, water skiing or hopefully one day skydiving, she loves to try new experiences. Other activities she enjoys are soccer, volleyball, hiking, swimming, and downhill skiing.

Native of the area, Maxime is the owner of the clinic and founder of Ekinox with his partner Aditi Kapoor. He graduated from the University of Ottawa in 2006 and became co-owner of the clinic in 2008. After more than 15 years as a co-owner of 4 clinics in a renowned physiotherapy franchise, and following his training with the Leadership Institute, Maxime decided to take flight and proudly launch his new identity by focusing solely on the Vaudreuil-Dorion clinic.

Maxime's reputation is well established when it comes to jaws, headaches, migraines, concussions and other neck, face and head disorders. An expert in the field, he teaches health professionals about jaw disorders and works with the majority of dentists in the west of Montreal. He is compassionate, treats his clients as a whole and does not hesitate to work with other professionals to optimize his clients' results.

Involved with sports teams since his graduation, Maxime has recently been working mainly with elite soccer players, the Quebec Freestyle Ski Team (moguls) and with local schools (Cité-des-Jeunes and the sport-études program at Chêne-Bleu).

Father of 3 children and self-described as a passionate, Maxime plays several instruments. Mainly mastering the guitar and the piano, he also plays percussion, ukulele and recently started playing the cello. Playing music is the best way for him to take a break and, as he says himself, “it helps stop the 8 hamsters running around in his head”. Camping and the outdoors are other hobbies that Maxime values as a way to take care of his mental health.

For his physical health, Maxime likes to ride his bike to work. He plays soccer, tennis, golf and also enjoys water sports such as kayaking and paddle boarding.

A physiotherapist and kinesiologist, Olivier graduated from the University of Sherbrooke with a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology in 2020, and a master’s degree in physiotherapy in 2024. It was his passion for helping others and for global health that prompted him to pursue both areas of expertise at university level. He decided to begin his career as a physiotherapist at Ekinox after being enchanted by the clinic’s values and vision during one of his stages.

During his many stages, Olivier developed his skills with a wide range of clients, from cardio-respiratory and neurological disorders to athletes and even first-line emergency physiotherapy.

Having worked for 7 years as a running analyst in a specialized boutique, Olivier loves finding the perfect shoe to accompany you on your jogging outings. His interest in following competitive and recreational athletes continues to grow, and is well reflected in the support he has provided to several teams over the years. He is also a certified sport first responder.

In addition to the health field, Olivier also spent 11 years in piano classes, graduating from the 9th grade of Collège Vincent d’Indy, before going on to teach this beautiful instrument to children aged 6 to 16.

Olivier holds a certificate in X-ray prescription and another in peripheral joint manipulation. For the future, he would like to continue developing his expertise in manual therapy, and would like to pursue his training in physiotherapy dry needle puncture.
