Bert's Philosophy
Bert's philosophy is centered around the belief that humans are adaptable and functional beings, capable of amazing movement made possible by healthy joints and muscles.
He believes that our bodies, influenced by the activities we engage in become the daily inputs of movement we put it through. As such, life activities can lead to tension, tightness, overuse, restriction, or injury, which can limit strength, movement, control, and even cause acute or chronic pain.
His approach therefore advocates for promoting and maintaining physical well-being through mindful movement, proper exercise, and proactive care for our bodies.
