DRS™ is a safe, pain-free state-of-the-art device that delivers decompressions in a comfortable manner. It produces decompression to the disc which reduces the painful herniation and other disc related degenerative conditions. Results include increase of blood flow to the injury, reduced pain, increased mobility and tissue repair. The results are amazing!
Gymnastics: A Great Fitness Option Studies show that today’s youngsters are a very inactive generation, and that inactivity and poor dietary habits have contributed to their lack of fitness. Statistics indicate that one in three kids is overweight or at risk of becoming overweight in the future, a percentage that has more than tripled in the last 30 years. To help get kids off the couch and into better shape this summer, Gem State Gymnastics Academy has specially designed camps and clinic for your children. These clinic focus on:
• Cardiovascular conditioning, which is important for the heart and lungs • Strength training, which builds strong, healthy muscles • Flexibility exercises, which help muscles move through a normal range of motion
