Welcome to IOK Rehab

More than a space for rehabilitation and training.

Our studio on Cesta Cirila Kosmača in Ljubljana-Šmartno brings assessment, training and counselling under one roof. It is a private room — no crowds, a full strength, mobility and conditioning setup, and treatment tables for hands-on work.

Ian Oskar Katanec

Founder · therapy, training, mentoring

I have worked in professional football and other sports for over 7 years. I most enjoy working with people limited by pain, with professional athletes and recreational movers, and I also mentor coaches and therapists. With clients abroad I work through online consultations. My way of working differs from classic approaches — I combine manual therapy, targeted training and breathing exercises to reopen the body's movement potential. The goal is clear: for clients to return to the movement and activities they love — without pain and with more trust in their body. My main aim is to teach people how they can help themselves, because that is the key to the long-term success of every rehabilitation and training process.

Marko Felja

External independent coach/therapist

I hold a master's degree in kinesiology and am a licensed physiotherapist with many years of experience in movement rehabilitation and improving physical preparedness. My experience covers years of work with professional athletes, recreational movers and individuals with long-term movement problems or injuries. I also mentor and educate coaches. With every individual I use a holistic and personal approach built on a deep understanding of the human body. I put special emphasis on movement biomechanics, removing the causes of pain, reducing the risk of chronic disease and improving long-term quality of life. My goal is to create a safe and effective path to health, better wellbeing and physical fitness — building your trust in your own body, a positive experience with movement, and lasting care for your own health.

Nutrition counselling

I completed my Nutrition studies at the University of Ljubljana in 2019. I began gaining practical experience in 2015 at the Befit association under the mentorship of Mojca Cepuš, working in individual counselling on healthy eating and weight loss. I deepened my knowledge at Center Moje Zdravje, teaching and lecturing on nutritional supplements and healthy, alternative nutrition. I have worked and educated at the Radenci health resort and Primus in Ptuj, hosted the show Kuham Zdravo, written articles for Zdrave Novice magazine, appeared on Dobro Jutro, been part of a menu-analysis project at the Paediatric Clinic in Ljubljana, lectured at the Narava Zdravje fair, and I am part of the Zame in Planet project. For the last few years my focus has been individual nutrition counselling with an emphasis on prevention before cure.

“Ian, in my opinion is one of the brightest minds in understanding human movement!  Not only has he helped me have a better understanding on how to help my players, but has even helped me to achieve a life that is more pain free and be able to handle the rigors of the day standing on the lesson tee!   If you get the chance to work with Ian, make sure you listen and definitely don’t look anywhere else for advice!  ”
