When you’re dealing with cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, difficulty maintaining a healthy weight, or other chronic health condition, you know a regular exercise program will provide significant benefits to your health.  Maybe even your physician has explained how a specifically-prescribed, strategic exercise program can prevent, manage, or even reverse many chronic health conditions.

But where do you start?  Establishing a safe, effective exercise routine isn’t always as simple as it sounds.  Many factors can complicate the process of developing an exercise routine that’s right for you:

  • Cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or other chronic health condition that require a specialized exercise plan and attention
  • Joint replacement
  • Arthritis, chronic injury, or pain in muscles or joints that make exercise difficult
  • Uncertainty about what types of exercise your routine should include (or NOT include) to best help you reach your goals and maximize the benefits to your health

Testimonials

“My husband and I are in our early 70’s and have been working with Jessica for almost 20 years. She has helped us increase our strength level and decrease the aches and pains of aging by working together. Jessica gives us homework which if done faithfully increases the success of the program. I had increasing periods of back muscle spasms which are now almost gone. If I have a bad day the spasm is less frequent and with much less intensity and duration thanks to Jessica.”
