Orthopedic Conditions and Exercise Considerations for The Spine .7 CEC

December 1 – Zoom – 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm
December 3 – Hands-on – 9:00 am – 2:00 pm (Elevation Fitness Babylon)

Orthopedic issues can be the result of force-related wear and tear that can be the result of sports, accidents, sedentary lifestyle, occupation, and, of course, “exercise.” This requires a strategic and personalized approach to implementing and manipulating the exercise experience for a client/patient.

General recommendations are physiotherapeutic exercises, “light stretching,” various forms of Yoga, and more.  All of which may have a place in the action toward reducing symptoms and improving function.

This course will not provide “general recommendations.” We will provide a ten-step succession to client and condition-specific exercise options and programming.
