STRENGTH TRAINING PROGRAM

The first step is scheduling a free call or booking an initial consultation. As part of that first session we will review the various rate and scheduling options.

Our clients train anywhere from 1-4 times per week. In order to access our discounted rates through our pre-paid package options, we require a minimum attendance of one session per week. For more information on our price structure, see the rates and cancellation policy at the bottom of any page of this site.

Many people experience pain relief and report a noticeable difference in how their bodies feel within the first few sessions. Our ultimate goal is to re-orient your body's structure in a way that supports better standing, walking, running and throwing. This is an ongoing process that can bring about life-changing results.

We strongly encourage developing a home practice to compliment your in person sessions. This does not need to be expensive and a home setup can be arranged with minimal equipment purchases. The myofascial release techniques we teach can be done using a few different sized balls or rollers and the exercises we employ can be done with bodyweight, some resistance bands, and dumbbells.

In order to improve posture we spend time triangulating the core through coordinating activation of the abdominal wall, gluts, and back muscles. For reduced inflammation and more ease in engaging this musculature, we suggest eliminating or reducing to the best of your ability the consumption of gluten, grains, nuts and seed oils. These eliminations also aid in body fat reduction.

Just as we recommend eliminating foods that can obstruct proper function of our core musculature, we suggest eliminating activities that can aggravate pain and may be contributing to faulty movement patterns. While it can be difficult to admit that some of the activities we love to participate in may be hurting us, removing these activities to give our bodies the time they need to heal can be crucial in this process. Our goal is to provide you with techniques which prompt your body to align with more integrity. Our clients have found they are able to meet, or often exceed their health and fitness goals with less effort when focusing on their biomechanics and movement efficiency.

Functional Patterns is both fitness training and rehabilitation in one program. Our specialists take the time to help you improve your posture and quality of movement to help you reduce your risk of injury, build strength, and optimize your health.
