VO2 Max Testing
VO2 Max Testing measures maximal oxygen consumption to assess cardiovascular fitness and athletic performance. Our certified physiologists use advanced equipment to create sport-specific training programs, enhancing endurance and efficiency for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. This test identifies genetic physiological capacities, guiding tailored workouts to optimize aerobic and anaerobic thresholds for improved athletic outcomes.
Metabolic Testing
Resting Metabolic Rate Testing determines calorie burn at rest and during activity. This data informs personalized nutrition and exercise plans to achieve weight loss or management goals. By analyzing metabolic efficiency, we help clients optimize energy expenditure and dietary intake for sustainable health improvements.

Our physiologists focus on restoring mobility, strength, and function through hands-on manual therapy and progressive exercise. This service addresses neuromuscular imbalances and postural dysfunction to reduce pain and prevent re-injury.

Sport-specific training enhances athletic capabilities through energy system development, strength training, and flexibility exercises. Programs are designed to improve fatigue resistance, reduce injury risk, and boost on-field performance.
