• Depending on your current ability and/or your physician’s prescription the Physical Therapist or trainer will sit down with you and design a simple yet comprehensive plan of action. Your trainer will evaluate your energy for the day so that the session is not overexerting. Some sessions will involve more movement, weights, stretching, repetitions, or cardiovascular exercise than other sessions.

• Each session typically begins with a warm-up and ends with a cool-down. During some sessions your trainer may take time to discuss your diet and overall health. Depending on your purpose for coming to OPTW Inc. your trainer may request a three day written food and water intake to assess your health. Exercise/motor movement is only one component of a healthy lifestyle. By educating a client about their health we are encouraging a holistic approach to wellness.

• So that you are able to understand the importance of each exercise our trainer will briefly describe the benefits of the exercise and demonstrate how the exercise is performed. Our staff is always willing to listen. If something causes pain or discomfort your trainer will modify the exercise or stretch and see that the exercise is benefiting you and not harming you. 

• If you have any questions during or between exercises feel free to ask. We are ALWAYS willing to listen!
