REBECCA RIEKER

Becca is very excited to bring Osteostrong to the Encino community.  Her passions for helping others in a playful way and personal development are what led her to Osteostrong.  Becca knew that being able to help others manage their aging process by improving their bone health, improving their strength and improving their balance, would indeed change lives, and it was something she had to do. Having spent time researching the science, reviewing testimonials, and coming to understand the possibilities the Osteostrong system can deliver, she is confident she can help people reach never before seen levels of physical performance at any age.

Becca loves relationships, as evidenced by her professional career as an Occupational Therapist.  She provided outstanding occupational therapy service while working for LAUSD for 18 years.  She quickly took on managerial and leadership positions.  She established good working relationships with her students and their families as well as the school and district staff. In addition to the expected duties of assessing, treating, documenting and recommending services, Becca specialized in working with individuals with Sensory Integration dysfunction and Autism.  In fact, she worked for 10 years in an intensive collaborative autism program and treated in a SI clinic for 14 years where she was also the Lead OT.

Becca became a proud mother in 2007 to a handsome baby boy.  She enjoys spending time watching him learn, grow and create.  He is a true blessing in her life!

Health and wellness have always been important to Becca.  She has been involved in various forms of physical activity throughout her life. Her passions include basketball, yoga and dance.  In fact, she can still be found out on the courts weekly.  She completed yoga teacher training in 2013 to deepen her personal practice.  When she first arrived in LA, she joined a professional bellydance troupe and also danced in Mediterranean restaurants.

Becca believes everyone deservers to live a life of strength, free of pain, and full of energy and vitality.  She is commitment to helping even more people reach their goals for health and wellness while also having fun!
