The Corrective Holistic Exercise Kinesiology Institute is an elite educational and corrective exercise centre based in Vista, California. It is recognised as the world leader in functional and rehabilitative exercise conditioning amongst exercise and health professionals. Clients, ranging from injured workers to professional athletes, see C.H.E.K practitioners for individual evaluations and corrective exercise programs.
What is a C.H.E.K. Practitioner?
C.H.E.K Practitioners look at the entire human being as a holistic entity. Through an understanding of how control systems integrate, producing our moment to moment and long term physical, emotional, mental and spiritual reality, the C.H.E.K Practitioner can more efficiently and effectively isolate the area(s) each client needs coaching.After a comprehensive assessment of structure, movement skills, nutrition and lifestyle factors, a customized program is developed.
The C.H.E.K system is multidisciplinary, therefore, we seek to prioritise your efforts according to your financial and time commitments; we seek to address the areas most likely to reap the greatest long term reward, even if they don’t include a C.H.E.K Practitioner initially! The C.H.E.K system is educationally based, yet each C.H.E.K Practitioner applies his/her specific skills to best suit your needs as an individual. C.H.E.K Practitioners are specialists in corrective exercise and high-performance conditioning.
Many therapists offer various forms of treatment regarding an injury or complaint but rarely get to the cause of the problem. C.H.E.K. Practitioners seek to address the cause, not the effect!
What makes the C.H.E.K. Practitioner’s approach so different compared to traditional medical practitioners or exercise professionals?
C.H.E.K. Practitioners are taught to recognize the signs and symptoms of disorders that may impede successful rehabilitation, and then to network with appropriate professionals to achieve the desired outcome.
C.H.E.K Practitioners are practical, efficient, highly committed to higher education and not afraid to think outside traditional circles. They are problem solvers of the highest calibre! Any Practitioner having completed Level III of the program will have demonstrated significant commitment in the form of completed prerequisites and both time and financial commitments to advancing their education. Most C.H.E.K practitioners are well recognized by their peers and other health care professional as one of the very best at what they do.
The Coaching Model for Successful Rehabilitation
The C.H.E.K. Practitioner is schooled in the use of a coaching model for successful rehabilitation. The traditional “treatment” model focuses on specific alleviation of pain and treatment by the practitioner to “fix the spot that hurts.”
C.H.E.K Practitioners empower the patient/client with the knowledge that the problem for which they are seeking resolution belongs to them and therefore they must take full responsibility for achieving the goals determined by both the client and the practitioner as the prerequisites to full recovery. Those patients/clients who complete programs developed by a C.H.E.K Practitioner are frequently more informed and capable in the exercise arena than many Personal Trainers are today!
