Think for a moment how many of your clients are a part of these statistics??

Here is the thing?doctors and therapists work with these folks via medications and physical therapy?AFTER?the injury pain and injury occur.

What if the work you did with your clients prevented the pain and injury from happening? What if you became a part of the solution to these musculoskeletal issues??

Consider this?very few insurance companies pay for preventive care BUT?your clients DO!!!!

Your clients voluntarily pay out of pocket each session to work with you. What we do and what we bring to our clients as health and fitness professionals is more than about losing weight?with each exercise sequence we have our clients perform we are teaching their bodies how to move. We ingrain movement patterns into their nervous systems.

We have to be sure each exercise we do with our clients works to create stability through their body, centrates their joints and that we are integrating proper and functional movement patterns into their systems. Otherwise, we set them up for risk of breakdown and injury, making them just another statistic.

As you can see from the statistics above, musculoskeletal injuries are a huge part of the health care crisis in the US and many other countries.?

Skilled health and fitness professionals who specialize in movement, who understand and respect the importance of the systems of the body working harmony with one another are in high demand!

No matter the method you use when working with your clients, you must understand and adhere to the principles of human movement.?
