Gyrotonic equipment at Fitness Matters Grandview uses weights, pulleys and rotational discs, which adds variety and a multitude of levels of intensity. The machine facilitates your movements, but you do all the work. It is a complete system of exercise as it articulates your joints, stimulates the nervous system, increases range of motion, and improves the flow of energy through the body to build strength, stamina, and movement efficiency.

The breath is a key component of the Gyrotonic Expansion System. We use the sound and the rhythm of our breath in synchronization with unique exercises to create an uninterrupted flow, linking the movements together. At the end of a session or class, you’re left with an overall feeling of well-being

Many Fitness Matters Grandview clients who utilize Gyrotonics also play recreational sports, such as golf and tennis – and many of them have shoulder, hip, knee, or back trouble. Gyrotonic exercise allows them to move more effortlessly and with less pain. Our Gyrotonic Instructor will assess your capabilities and guide you through appropriate resistance profiles and keep your goals front and center as clients maneuver through this wellness and strengthening program.

Incontinence, whether it be bladder or bowel, can be embarrassing and difficult to deal with. Some people think that it is just a normal part of life once you reach a certain age or after you have children. While it is common, it is not normal and it is not something that you should have to continue to deal with. Our Physical Therapists are highly trained to recognize and treat a wide array of symptoms associated with Incontinence and are passionate about helping clients find successful results.

There are different forms of incontinence and there can be several reasons that it is occurring. Some incontinence is more urge related which can go back to habits or the way we have trained our bodies. Other incontinence could be more stress related and be tied to coordination deficits of the pelvic floor and core muscles. Sometimes it can be both!

Your first visit with Fitness Matters Grandview will focus on identifying the factors contributing to your incontinence and discussing strategies to mitigate it. You can feel at ease discussing these sensitive matters in a private space and completely one on one with your Physical Therapist.colc
