Look at how a WELL designed isolated floor is built, to really make a difference it's similar to a wall ect...
But in this application cork or sheetblock or rubber pad will help.
If it's in a rented building then it has to be easily removed, and the above example might fall under that category...
I have the same problem where I live, hardwood floors above me; I can tell exactly where the guy is...

And sound is heard via 3 means; straight from the source, reflected or coupled thru the structure.
And ALL of the above..
