Science...it's what we do!
Our system,utilizing the scientific method outlined below is exactly how we go about solving your health and fitness problems. By applying known sciences such as mechanics, exercise physiology, anatomy and neuro-physiology we are able to make startling changes with regards to pain, tightness, strength, posture and movement. It is these changes that have our clients writing wonderful testimonials and considering us their life-long muscle systems mechanics.

1. The Scientific Method
- The scientific method is a way to ask and answer scientific questions by making observations and doing experiments.
- The steps of the scientific method are to:
- Ask a Question
- Do Background Research
- Construct a Hypothesis
- Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
- Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion
- Communicate Your Results
- It is important for your experiment to be a fair test. A "fair test" occurs when you change only one factor (variable) and keep all other conditions the same.
2. Mechanics (GreekΜηχανική) is the branch of physics concerned with the behavior of physical bodies when subjected to forces or displacements, and the subsequent effect of the bodies on their environment. The discipline has its roots in several ancient civilizations (see History of classical mechanics and Timeline of classical mechanics). During the early modern period, scientists such as Galileo, Kepler, and especially Newton, laid the foundation for what is now known as classical mechanics.
3. Anatomy is the study of structures of the bodies. We are specifically concerned with the structure of the muscle, skeletal and nervous systems. Structure dictates function and therefore we must know the structures thoroughly before attempting understand and/or change something about their function.
4. Exercise Physiology is traditionally defined as the study of how our bodies' structures and functions are altered when we are exposed to acute and chronic bouts of exercise (Physiology of Sport and Exercise, Jack H. Wilmore & David L. Costill, 1999). Looking beyond the scope of "exericse" to everyday life we recognize that your body will adapt to the stress's placed on it for better or for worse. Understanding your individual capabilities allows us to promote positive changes to the health of your body.
