Restorative Exercise for Strong Bones
With Katy Santiago, M. S.

Osteoporosis is on the rise, and while many people are aware that exercise can benefit, traditional fitness exercise is often not specific enough to generate bone. Restorative Exercise for Strong Bones will target sites specifically at risk for bone loss: hips, wrists, vertebrae, and ribs, with exercises designed to increase bone loading.

This 40-minute program includes slower-paced exercise designed to increase motor skill of areas not activating on a regular basis due to sitting and postural habits. The tubing will create resistance for walking and sitting exercises, as well as standing, functional movements. Rich with thoughtful exercise prescription and instruction, Restorative Exercise for Strong Bones is designed to be a daily practice and learning experience for exercise treatment and prevention of bone loss. Includes DVD (40 mins) and resistance cords.

Restorative Exercise for Spinal Alignment
Balance | Strengthen | Restore
With Katy Santiago, M. S.

Free the spine in all directions
The majority of movements in our daily life use very little of our spine’s ability. While most people think of the spine as having an upper and lower position, every vertebrae can actually flex, extend, and rotate on its own. Restorative Exercise for Spinal Alignment will take the viewer through a series of exercises that free the spine in all directions.

Breathing, neck pain, and stomach strength are all related to the mobility of the spine. Regular lubrication of the entire spine brings oxygen and blood flow to bones, disks, and soft tissues to increase structural longevity.

Includes
	Instructional DVD
	Alignment Strap
	Alignment Block

Benefits
	Deep Strength stabilizing muscles of the spine, pelvis, and shoulder girdle
	Enhanced Breathing with proper rib motion
	Greater Circulation and Motor Skill pelvis, spine, and neck

*3 part exercise on one DVD!* 45 min.
