FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT INJURIES DO YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE DEALING WITH?

It’s impossible for me to list all the injuries I’ve come across in the 15+ years I’ve been a personal trainer. However, here is a list of some of the most common ones I’ve come across: herniated and bulging disks, disc degeneration, muscle spasms, nerve entrapment, torn rotator cuff, torn ACL and/or meniscus, torn labrum, hip impingement, shoulder impingement, winged scapulae (scapular dyskinesis) tendonitis in all forms (including tennis elbow, runner’s knee, and IT band syndrome), patellar tracking disorder, plantar fasciitis, bunions, hernias, tension headaches and migraines.

I’VE NEVER WORKED WITH A PERSONAL TRAINER. HOW DO I KNOW IF I’M READY?

Over the years I’ve worked with a wide variety of clients at all fitness levels. There’s no need to feel shame or that you need to prepare for personal training. Whether you’re an experienced lifter looking to burnish your skills or some one who’s thirty pounds overweight and has never exercised before, the workouts should feel the same — challenging, but doable. You’re ready. Don’t hesitate to reach out.

HOW DO I GET STARTED?

You can start by calling now or scheduling a time for me to call you. On your call we’ll discuss your availability and needs. And from there, we can schedule a complimentary personal training session.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

You can wear clothes that are breathable and you feel comfortable moving in. A t-shirt and gym shorts or gym pants would work great.

I’M ONLY LOOKING FOR A ONE-TIME SESSION. DO YOU DO THAT?

No, I only work with clients who are interested in working with a personal training on a weekly, ongoing basis. I do not offer single sessions at this time.

WHAT ARE YOUR RATES?

Personal training rates are comparable to private psychotherapy rates. I’ll give you a quote on our phone consultation.

I HAVE AN ILLNESS/DISABILITY. CAN YOU WORK WITH ME?

Yes, I have a great deal of experienced working with a range of health conditions and disabilities. We can discuss your specific needs on the phone to assess whether I’m the best trainer to meet your needs.
