Fitness
You don’t need to be an athlete to workout at the Sports Medicine and Performance Center.
Our fitness and exercise specialists provide expert guidance to anyone. Whether you want to start exercising for the first time, are coming back to the gym after a break or are looking to advance your fitness safely, you can come train with us.
About fitness services
All our fitness and exercise programs are rooted in corrective exercise. Corrective exercise is a technique that examines your movement patterns, balance, posture and strength. It is a relatively new way to assess and train.
If you are in good health, a corrective exercise program can help you lose weight and get stronger. If you have a health challenge, we can help you recover functionality and feel better. The benefits for everyone include:
- Increased flexibility
- Increased stability and balance
- Increased coordination
- Increased strength
