Nina specialises in Human Biomechanics utilising the Functional Patterns Method to improve peoples pain, posture, gait, and athletic potential.
She teaches you how to train your body as an integrated system by learning how to create leverage the correct way for maximising mechanical output. As climbers we know that the whole body is involved in scaling up the wall so why train the body isolated when you can integrate it.
Nina’s remedial massage skills also help identify what areas of the body need a decrease in tension and what areas of the body actually NEED re-tensioning.
If you or someone you know keeps having repetitive injuries then you need to identify what the root cause of that injury is and learn how to fix the engrained movement pattern that keeps flaring it up.
