Our Philosophy

At Body Dynamix you will find that our healthcare, as well as our physical training rest on the idea that Specificity is key. Our staff bases patient diagnosis, progressions, treatment, and rehabilitation on an evidence-based foundation. The training programs are designed around each individual’s strengths and weaknesses in order to reach their full potential.

Healthcare: Common ideas of health today include one that focuses on the absence of disease. We believe this to be a huge misunderstanding of what optimal health really is. Look at the health continuum below.

1. 100% Function = Optimal Health
Optimal nerve supply, diet, routine exercise, mental focus
2. Excellent Health = Increased Immune Function
Optimal nerve supply function, diet, routine exercise
3. Good Health/High Energy
Good nerve supply, moderate exercise, dietary consideration
4. Maintaining Health/No Symptoms
Doing little, good genetics, age factor
5. Minimal Dysfunction
Intermittent pain, drug therapy, quality of life affected by symptoms
6. Disease/Low energy/Fatigue
Pain, sickness, drug therapy, exploratory surgery, poor quality of life
7. Diseased Condition
Radical surgery, no hope, no quality of life

Understanding what health is helps us to focus on obtaining the highest degree of health. Seeing that the absence of disease is actually only halfway to Optimal Health is a good place to start.

Acute Care: Trauma to the body (i.e. Ankle Sprain); the first 72 hours provide a window of opportunity for actions to be taken to shorten a patient’s road to recovery. Body Dynamix focus here is to take time to accurately diagnose, rule out major injuries, and proceed by getting a patient back to normal activity as soon as possible.

Chronic Care: Pain, usually accumulating over time (i.e. Tendonitis, Headaches); Relief from the pain is the number one priority of our staff. Secondly we want to uncover what the underlying cause is. Some common causes are: Biomechanical inefficiency, overuse, muscular imbalance, and poor posture. Lastly, it is the goal of Body Dynamix to not only get rid of the pain, but to ensure that the pain will not return by solving the underlying problem, as opposed to masking the pain with medication, and educating the patient on proper maintenance.

Wellness Care: A patient who maintains optimal health by taking a PROACTIVE approach to their health. This constitutes exercise, diet, neurological communication, and biomechanical efficiency. We encourage all of our patients to throw out the RETROACTIVE approach (treating symptoms when they arise) and become truly healthy.

Training: Body Dynamix takes pride in constructing individualized workout regiments based on the trainee’s specific goals. Every trainee starts with an introductory test that measures cardiovascular endurance, upper body explosiveness and strength, lower body explosiveness and strength, and flexibility. Those test results are used to not only write the program, but also to measure progress along the way. Body Dynamix trains a spectrum of people from Professional Athletes, to run of the mill business persons, to police officers and fireman. As with anything else we do here, Specificity is the key.
