WHAT IS A MOVEMENT PROFESSIONAL?

The term MOVEMENT PROFESSIONAL refers to all individuals working in the health, fitness and wellness fields who deal with improving  physical function/performance.  MOVEMENT PROFESSIONALS include but are not limited to personal trainers, physical therapists, athletic trainers, yoga/pilates instructors, Crossfit coaches, nurses, physicians, chiropractors, massage therapists, etc.  All of these practitioners playvital roles in improving an individual's quality of movementand therefore quality of life. Unfortunately, with the health andfitness industries as competitive as they are,  too manyprofessionalsdownplay the benefits of others in order tocreate a superficial and unnecessary "who is more knowledgeable than who" hierarchy . These all too common marketing tacticsdo nothing but hinder a patient/client's ability to experience the highest quality of care. The term MOVEMENT PROFESSIONAL is meant to erase lines drawn in the sand between various professionals working with a common goal of assisting others in reaching their human movement potential. This is not to disregard differences in the educational processes of different professions, but simply to point out that a collaborative effort is the most effective approach to improving physical function/performance.

This ranges from functioning in daily life while taking care of your kids to training to become a competitive athlete.
