“The team at VERT FITNESS has absolutely changed my life! I came in with serious neck and upper back pain from, you guessed it, too many hours spent working at the computer. Thankfully, I didn’t have to live with this forever. I am happy to report that I am transitioning from physical therapy to personal training with either Maurice or Zach (both smart, motivational guys) depending on the day of the week. My neck and back pain has subsided, my muscles are getting stronger, my quality of sleep has improved and I feel like a better version of myself. Thanks, VERT! You guys rock!” - Lana R.
