Trainers cont Rita qualified as a pharmacist from Manchester University and then as a nutritional therapist. She has since studied the latest laboratory techniques such as hormone profiles, comprehensive digestive analysis, adrenal stress index testing, food intolerance and DNA Testing.
Trainers cont Basil s expertise as a personal trainer lies in motivating and helping people who are in poor physical condition. His approach is based on Biomechanical functional training, which means that a person s ability to perform any given task depends on the ability of the body to have an increased range of motion. A lack of motion causes the body to deteriorate and starts the pathway to the injury cycle. Basil s goal is to increase mobility of the joints that restrict movement such as the ankles, hips and thoracic through a series of dynamic movements.
