Fitness Therapy
This is what I do with my life … what you call a title like this?

I would like to know everything about the human body, how it works, and be able to help people in changing their diets, lifestyles and physical condition. I am in therapy and alternative methods of prevention when it comes to any disorder or disease. I love helping people improve their lives and reach their full health potential. I do not know where to start or what type of degree I would have to be able to do this stuff for a living. Can anyone help?

I suggest becoming a naturopathic doctor. A prestigious school CT offers the degree. It combines aspects of medicine and the overall health of an alternative route to safety. Here is the link. Good luck!

The Artistry of Fitness: Align and Lengthen collects three exercise programs from expert fitness instructor Stephanie Herman: Fitness Through Conscious Movement, Esprit de Danse, and Stretch & Feel It! Herman, who was a prima ballerina for ten years, performing with world-class dancers, also trained with Joseph Pilates and is certified by the American College of Sports Medicine. Her workout methods utilize the science and philosophy of physical expression and rehabilitation, and offer therapeutic benefits as well as toning and strengthening — all the while integrating the spirit and grace of dance into the exercise routine. Herman achieves this balance by combining dance with Pilates, movement therapy, and yoga. The three programs on this DVD offer a workout for every mood — whether you want to calm and center your mind while connecting to your body, strengthen your body and lift your spirits, or relax and revitalize while learning new ways to stretch. ~ Dana Rowader, Rovi

This complete guide to the aquatic treatment of orthopedic injuries addresses topics ranging from program format to risk management and pool design. The book also presents 28 plans of care for the treatment of injuries to the lower extremities, upper extremities, and spine. First, Aquatic Therapy Programming gives you the tools you’ll need to develop a plan of care for aquatic therapy. You’ll learn the basic properties and principles of movement in water and how to apply them to aquatic therapy, how to use water depth during the different stages of treatment, and how to use equipment to facilitate exercise. Author Joanne Koury then describes her unique six-phase approach to designing aquatic treatment plans. The steps include assessment and early treatment; strengthening and local muscular endurance; balance, coordination, and cardiovascular conditioning; task-related and sport-simulated skills development; transitional aquatic therapy; and maintenance and fitness. Next, the book explains how to implement the six-phase plan of care in the treatment of selected orthopedic injuries. You’ll find 28 specific plans of care for acute injuries to the pelvis, hip, and thigh; knee; lower leg, ankle, and foot; shoulder region; elbow, wrist, and hand; lumbar, thoracic, and cervical spine; and trunk and neck. Descriptions of exercises used within the treatment plans are enhanced by photographs. You can use these plans of care as a starting point for treatment in the pool, modifying them to meet the needs of individual clients. Finally, Aquatic Therapy Programming discusses the administrative concerns of aquatic therapy facility managers. The book addresses many aspects of risk management and safety planning, including legal responsibility, safety and rescue equipment, pool maintenance, client screening, and staff hiring and training.

Functional Fitness: Copd & Asthma


$16.99


COPD is a lung disease that limits airflow and causes shortness of breath. Normally easy tasks such as walking to a car, having a shower, and performing household duties can make the simple task of breathing very difficult. If you or a loved one live with asthma, bronchitis or emphysema, this medically engineered DVD program can help you improve your mobility. Performing the routines on this DVD can improve your ability to breathe, increase your enjoyment to participate in daily activities, and release stress. Occupational Therapy Practitioner Suzanne Andrews instructs you with gentle therapeutic breathing and specially designed exercise techniques to help increase your lung capacity. Exercise is essential because the less active you are, the weaker your muscles get. Weak muscles need more oxygen and this causes a chain reaction of being short of breath. Suzanne guides you with easy to follow, yet effective, techniques to create stronger breathing muscles. You have a choice of performing the movements seated or standing. The DVD also contains special therapeutic energy conservation techniques to improve your ability to cook, dress, play with your pet and more to help you stay active and get more enjoyment out of life.
