“I have been going to FitnessLab for well over a year and my wife has been going since they opened. Matt and his staff truly care about helping you move the way you should move. They are friendly, helpful, and provide a ton of services. You can do traditional movement training, exercise, and physical therapy. Go talk to Matt, he’s a great human and he knows what he’s doing. When I started going here, it hurt when I walked because I had plantar fasciitis pretty bad. Now I am moving easier, lifting weights, and able to walk without the pain in my feet.” PATIENT SUCCESS STORY “Once you make the decision to go to The Fitness Lab, you won’t need to go anywhere else. I’ve been working with Bill for a few months now to correct some poor movement patterns/discomfort caused by medical and work related issues. His knowledge and experience second to none! So glad I found him, just wish I would’ve done it sooner. I’ve also had the opportunity to work with Matt and John who are also amazing trainers with an extensive understanding of the body and functional movement. Whether you need Physical Therapy or Personal Training, this should be your first stop.” - Jenn H. Health is a relative term. It means that your body is operating at a high normal range in all the different systems from circulation, breathing, digestion, and more. Anything you can do to help your body achieve more of an ideal state is a step towards a healthier you. At the Fitness LAB, our strength training programs will get you back on track to living a happy and healthy lifestyle. Our physical therapists will design a treatment plan with the best exercises for an effective and speedy recovery. These exercises will be dependent upon which part(s) of your body are in need of strengthening.
