Holistic Approach:
C.H.E.K Practitioners understand that the human body is a system of many complex inter-related systems that all affect each other. They conduct the most thorough and detailed assessments on all the bodies’ systems before making any recommendations.

C.H.E.K Practitioners are highly skilled in human biomechanics, orthopaedic rehabilitation, and sports performance.
The holistic approach involves assessing each person on a physical, mental and emotional level and suggesting referrals to other professionals where necessary to ensure optimal results.

What’s Involved?
The C.H.E.K Approach includes:

  • Detailed pre-screening and assessments (1-2 hours)
  • Thorough assessment analysis and programme design 
  • Programme advice and coaching.
  • Periodical re-evaluation

Pre-screening

  • A Holistic Lifestyle Assessment is carried out which assesses your goals, willingness to change, medical history, hydration levels, dietary habits, sleep patterns, stress, toxicity and emotional factors.

Assessments:
A C.H.E.K Practitioner is well equipped to assess you orthopaedically. A C.H.E.K Practitioner uses a comprehensive assessment criteria to make sure you get the best start possible. The following list details the assessments you are likely to receive:

  • Analysis of posture, muscle length tensions, joint ranges of motion, abdominal function and sacroiliac joints.
  • A Primal Movement ® Patterns analysis, gait analysis, respiration, dynamic stability assessment. 

Analysis and Programme Design:
The results of the assessments are analysed and an appropriate exercise and lifestyle programme is devised. Referrals to other health care professionals are also advised to ensure your success.

Programme Coaching:
You are ‘coached’ through an exercise and lifestyle programme. The exercise coaching is normally performed in four to 6 sessions. More or regular exercise sessions can be arranged where required. The Holistic Lifestyle Coaching is normally carried out over several sessions to ensure lifestyle change, adherence to the changes and ultimately your success. Referrals to other appropriate health professionals will be advised at this stage.

Re-evaluation
Just like you would have your car serviced, it is recommended that you should be re-assessed on a periodical basis to continue to achieve and maintain optimal health and wellbeing.
