There are many chronic conditions that we can treat through exercise prescription. Some examples would include cancer, diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, obesity, fibromyalgia etc.
For each person we do a full assessment to determine their current functionality, their history, their strengths and weaknesses and their goals. We ensure that we work towards those goals. We work towards different goals for each person whether that is that the person is bed ridden and would like to be able to build up strength to walk to the bathroom or a patient with diabetes, hypertension or high cholesterol where exercise can significantly lower blood glucose levels, improve insulin sensitivity, lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol levels and decrease the risks for heart disease.
