TRAINING WITH HEALTH CONDITIONS
Exercising with health conditions can be very challenging for many reasons. Big or small, it is easy to let them deter or prevent us from exercising. Yet, exercise is a critical component of management and recovery from them:
Exercise is commonly prescribed as a critical lifestyle change to implement to manage and even reverse such conditions as diabetes, hypertension, elevated LDL cholesterol levels, anxiety and depression
Many surgeries and procedures require not only physical therapy but consistent exercise in order to recover from them smoothly
Better physical fitness is a major contributor to achieving better overall health, and thus a better quality of life
I have 16 years of experience working with clients with chronic health conditions. Among my expertise is working with clients with:
Parkinson’s disease
Multiple Sclerosis
Lewy Body dementia

I am also trained in pre and post physical therapy training.
I am prepared and have the experience to work with your specific health concerns and craft a plan that is not only condition-specific, but will empower and help keep you motivated and accountable to return you to improved health. I have conferred with many clients’ doctors over the years to ensure that their recommendations are included in client programs.
