Center Court Sports & Fitness is for
people who want to become healthy and want to take
an active role in their health. We try to provide our
members the power to retake control of there lives. We do
more than provide a health facility, we teach people how
to be healthy. We are not here to change anybody, we are
not here to judge anybody. Center Court Sports & Fitness
is here to help educate you on how to be as healthy as you
can be. We feel our biggest asset is our commitment to our
members.
Personal trainers traditionally work with people who are
healthy.
Physical therapists traditionally treat people with some
type of injury.
In reality, nearly all of us have some sort of past injury
such as a tendonitis or a past medical condition like
arthritis, which can be negatively impacted by exercise if
it isn't executed properly.
For instance, we know
from recent research that:
| · |
Exercisers over the age of 40 can expect an average of
2.3 to 2.4 injuries per year from exercise (1,2) |
|
· |
Nearly 1 million
injuries per year occur from weightlifting (3) |
| · |
About
50% of aerobics participants experience an injury
within the first 3 months of starting (4, 5) |
| · |
People
who lift weights are 4 times as likely as
non-weightlifters to develop osteoarthritis (6) |
Clearly,
exercise poses risks. The science of physical therapy,
through decades of research and clinical experience,
offers unique insights and solutions into injury
prevention and safe exercise that are sorely needed in the
arena of fitness.
Center Court Sports & Fitness
therefore bridges the gap between fitness and physical
therapy. We do this by blending the physical therapy
knowledge and approach to injury prevention with fitness
and general wellness, making exercise much safer and more
effective for our members.
