I see fitness clients at Aptitude Performance Center, located in the Arcadia area of Phoenix.

Corrective Exercise Sessions for Pain

Sessions using the successful three-step schematic approach I developed over 25 years of helping clients out of all types of pain and injury—- low back/hip/shoulder/knee— and back into great physical condition. Each session follows these steps:

  • 1. CORRECT: First, I’ll correct any trunk/pelvis, postural or joint mechanic imbalances that are causing your pain to get more effective training out of your body and get you on the road to feeling better.

  • 2. STABILIZE: Next, we’ll uptrain your deep spinal stabilizers using my targeted core training protocol to make your body stable from the center outward, and make you bulletproof against your pain recurring or other degenerative issues.

  • 3. TRAIN: The rest of the session is spent on additional corrective exercises thoroughly addressing your imbalances so you continue to train out of improper alignment patterns and get back to pain-free fitness. Corrective exercise is the natural and permanent way out of chronic pain with no side-effects and only benefits.
