Achieve Wellness Fitness and Exercise Programs
Customized Exercise Prescription/Rehab
Each person is unique in their exercise needs. We can help rehabilitate an area of your spine or extremity by prescribing individualized stretching, restorative and strengthening exercises to accompany the treatment plan for a specific condition.
To correct chronic postural misalignments, it is important to correct the specific postural pattern, by stimulating the muscles with dynamic resistance exercises, and to train them in functional positions (upright and weight-bearing postures.) This is called Active Neuromotor Programming. The goal is to train the body via the nervous system to increase core stability and improve spinal function by performing "mirror image" corrective exercises. Dr. Ley will prescribe specific individualized exercises for you in order to promote and reproduce postures of daily living.
Therabands are variable resistance bands that are used to condition, rehab, and strengthen muscles in a home setting.
Dr. Ley can show you specific exercise “short-cuts” to help increase athletic performance; power stretches to enhance posture, and can also assess fitness levels by evaluating a patient's cardiovascular endurance, percent body fat, flexibility and strength. Your fitness level can be assessed at any visit in order to determine how to help you reach your optimum health and fitness potential.
