- How did you get started doing this type of work?
When my mother replaced her knee about 8 years ago, I was determined to seek a career in the health and medical field. When I was able to understand what physical therapy entailed, I became intrigued with body mechanics and physiology of the body when the body is in an active state.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
Correcting body mechanics; creating exercise programs that integrate running and cycling; breathing and stretching techniques, warm up and cool down methods; education in injury prevention; connect clients with physical therapy clinics in the area as well as shoe stores and medical supplies
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Always seek someone with plenty of references and a great personality. Never just seek a trainer that is" built and buff." Lets be real here, not everyone has the capacity or time to dedicate their lives to exercising for hours upon hours at a gym. Some people may not even have a facility, but there are plenty of exercises to perform outside of a gym setting. Seek a trainer who is willing to put in the effort to help you maximize the time you're with them.
