”It’s easier to stay well than to get well…Detect and correct any small problems before they become big ones.”
Brian Kerner, D.C.

  Reasons to exercise and its benefits

Increases feelings of well-being, it bolsters the immune system and lowers the risk of heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes and osteoporosis.

 Cardiorespiratory
Aerobic exercising improves significantly lung and breathing capacity, it also increases the efficiency of the heart to pump amounts of blood flow to the body and brain which boosts memory as it stimulates the brain for more mental alertness and vigor. It may help prevent Alzheimer’s disease. Reduces depression, improves sleep and can help to manage stress.

 Body composition

Aids in the reduction of body fat percentage while maintaining muscle mass. 

 Stretching

Improves mechanical efficiency and overall functional performance.  Increases the range of motion in joints and reduces tension and enhances muscular relaxation.

10 reasons to stretch

1 Reduce muscular tension and enhance muscular relaxation

2 Helps to manage or reduce stress

3 Increases range of motion

4 decreases muscular stiffness

5 lower risk of injury

6 Decreases the risk of low-back pain

7 Helps to improve posture

8 Relieves post-exercise pains and aches

9 promotes greater blood supply to muscles

10 Prepares the body prior to the exercise bout and improves mechanical
efficiency and overall functional performance

 Muscular system

Improves strength and endurance at any age, it helps to better condition connective tissue (tendons and ligaments) Thus, reduce risk of injury.

 Skeletal system

Increases bone density, which reduces the risk of developing osteoporosis. Increases the flow of synovial fluid to the joints.

 Self-myofascial release (SMR)

Bodywork that rebalances the soft tissue of the body, improves structural alignment, corrects muscle imbalances and releases tension in the fascia. Fascia is a complex supportive web throughout the body affecting all components of the musculoskeletal, nervous and visceral (organs) systems. This process will contribute to restore the body to an optimal level of function and greater integration of the kinetic chain systems, it also helps to soothe and relax irritated muscles.

 Self-myofascial release or SMR flexibility training is a key component for all conditioning and rehabilitation training programs. SMR stretching technique is not meant to diagnose, treat or prevent illness or disease.
