We Bring the Medical Exercise Training Experts Right To Your Home

Medical exercise helps those dealing with pain-filled or limited movements to regain pain-free movement. Often times our clients come to us when they are not able to return to their favorite activities after completing physical therapy or undergoing surgery.

We can work with the source of the injury- not just the injury itself- to re-train faulty movement patterns, restore muscle balance, and prevent re-injury.

We do not diagnose or treat any medical conditions; we manage medical conditions and associated muscular imbalances with exercise.

Exercises may include any or all of the following: strength training, flexibility training, spinal or joint stabilization training, and functional conditioning.

With advanced training in the anatomy, pathology and biomechanics of common medical conditions, our medical exercise specialists develop safe and effective programs to help you recover from your physical challenges.

You may have heard it summarized this way before: "it bridges the gap between physical therapy and physical training."

We found the following comprehensive list of What A Medical Exercise Specialist does from the Medical Exercise Training Institute to be very helpful:

Perform safe and effective fitness assessments on clients with medical disorders without causing exacerbation of the condition.

Understand the related anatomy, pathology and biomechanics of common medical conditions.

Develop safe and effective conditioning programs for clients with musculoskeletal, neurological, cardiovascular and metabolic disorders.
Apply safe and effective medical exercise techniques for the upper and lower extremity and spine.
Communicate effectively with medical professionals and insurance carriers.

Document both assessment and training sessions using standardized medical exercise administrative forms and methods.

Anyone who is medically stable may participate in medical exercise. Medically stable implies that your condition is no longer considered acute, and in need of medical attention. If you are unsure whether you are a good candidate for medical exercise, please consult with your doctor.

Medical exercise can resolve pain and restore full mobility, but much of that depends upon you. Adherence to the recommended program, including attendance to in-office sessions, as well as compliance with your daily home exercise program is critical to your success. Although we can’t guarantee your individual results, our practitioners should be able to give you a good idea about whether medical exercise can help you after a brief discussion.
