In Clinic Exercises

Exercise is extremely important when it comes to overall health. Sure, I love it when a patient tells me they are doing palates, yoga, swimming (on a regular basis),...but, it is also important to do daily stretches to prevent injury, as well.

The exercises you will see here are regular exercises performed IN CLINIC. I have had patients ask me to post this for a while, to give them a reminder of how the exercises should be performed.
