Panorama rec centre now has an in-house physiotherapy, I thought you might what to know why that is good for you.
For those struggling to get back to the gym due to pain, those having pain with their normal exercise routine, or having difficulty reaching their full potential in their training, physiotherapy can make all the difference. Unfortunately this often means that you see a physiotherapy in a clinic with different exercise equipment than you normally use, and making the transition back to the gym can be a bit of a guessing game.
What if your physiotherapist could actually watch your workout at your gym, correct your technique, treat your condition, and help you achieve your maximum fitness? Wouldn’t that be the best of both worlds? Well this is what the members of Panorama rec centre have access to! As the physiotherapist at Panorama, I have already had the opportunity to help clients get back to the exercises they love to do, while simultaneously treating their pain, or rehabilitating an injury. It has been greatly rewarding to see my clients in the gym succeeding with their exercise and bettering their fitness! It also allows me to check in on them in passing and help tweak an exercise or routine right there on the spot.
The value in having your physiotherapist at your gym:
1. I can see how you do your exercise in your natural exercise “environment” and correct you right there.
2. Returning to your exercise routine after pain or injury is a smooth transition. You already know the equipment and now you know how to use it for your rehab.
3. I am will be around for you to ask questions in a place that you go regularly. We can solve the problems even before they start.
So don’t hesitate, start capitalizing on having a physiotherapist at your gym! We can get you back to your favorite exercise, recovery from an injury or pain, as well as keep you on the right path for the future. Book to see me at Panorama rec centre, and let us improve your movement and get back to the activity that you love to do.
