ISSA Certified Fitness Trainer
It's no secret - fitness training has been proven to prevent disease, strengthen your health and improve your confidence and outlook on life. As a certified fitness trainer, I'm deeply trained in everything from muscle mechanics to flexibility and cardiovascular dynamics. So if you want to live a stronger and more confident life, I've got the training and the expertise to help you every step of the way.
ISSA Specialist in Group Fitness
Participating in a group fitness class offers a great, and often more affordable alternative to working one-on-one with a personal trainer. However, flawed program design, poor planning, and a lack of safe exercise progressions and regressions can sometimes lead to suboptimal results, and even injury to those who participate in group fitness classes. As a certified specialist in this area, I can plan, implement, and lead group fitness classes to help you achieve optimal results in a fun and safe environment.
ISSA Elite Trainer
The ISSA Elite Trainer credential is awarded to accomplished ISSA Certified Trainers who have proven their competence in personal training and developed expertise in two additional areas of specialization. With scientific backing and practical application in the areas clients need help with the most, this credential proves that extensive education equals results.
Licensed Clinical Massage Therapist
Clinical massage therapists use hands-on manipulation of muscles and tissues through the skin to treat injuries of dysfunctions and alleviate pain. This type of massage focuses on the medical benefits of massage to treat conditions such as fibromyalgia, arthritis or neck pain. Lots of the patients that come to a clinical massage therapist will have been referred by doctors. Massage uses touch to manipulate soft tissues throughout the human body. Massage therapy is useful for a number of reasons, including decompressing tired muscles, reducing stress and supporting general health. Clinical massage therapy uniquely focuses on the treatment of soft tissue to maintain, develop, augment or rehabilitate the patient's physical function. Clinical massage therapy can improve the functioning of joints and muscles, the healing process, metabolism and circulation.
ISSA Certified Nutritionist
Whether you want to gain muscle, lose fat, or live healthily, your limiting factor usually lies beyond exercise. Poor nutrition is what holds people back. As a certified specialist in this area, I can help you dispel the common myths about nutrition, and then work with you to design a \"real world\" nutrition plan that you can actually stick with and enjoy.
