Holistic Massage
Experience:
My experience in body mechanics and personal fitness has given me
the ability to work your body in a way many therapists can not. My method gives you the ultimate in sports
massage.
MY FITNESS PHILOSOPHY:
Personal Fitness
for Seniors and Baby Boomers:
As a
baby boomer myself who is better
qualified to meet your needs than someone who understands your needs. I
understand the limitations of your body and can help you EXPAND your
current limits. As a Baby
Boomer myself, I understand what your body is capable of and the best
way
to reach your goals.
Personal Fitness
for Generation X:
Learn from my experience.
Learn body mechanics, nutrition, proper form and all phases of working out from
someone with a first hand knowledge of personal training and nutritional
studies.
