Get Your Fuzzies Checked Out!

PT Room 
Many of you start CrossFit, and after falling in love with the feeling of getting your butt kicked, go full board in pushing your body in workouts. As you have learned, intensity is key to making CrossFit a successful fitness program for you. We'd like to encourage you, however, to maintain a level of technique that is sound enough to keep you injury free. The pattern we have seen is that even a slight lack of ROM (range of motion) in a joint or muscle group will, over time, lead to pain and injury. Before you go crazy on PRs, go crazy on the PT! Take care of your body's recovery, healing, ROM, and injuries NOW. If you are feeling a little fuzzy, sticky, or twingy anywhere, we've got some resources. We've made it easy for you...

At NoCoast we encourage daily mobility which is in cooperated into our WODs, as well as a mobility area designed to guide you through recommended stretches based on specific movements. In addition, there is an information area to educate you on the following topics: Soft Tissue Mobilization, Injury Response, Importance of Warm up & Cool Down, and more! (Located upstairs in the lounge). If you have suffered from an injury in the past, or continue to notice that you have continual range of motion deficits, NoCoast offers Physical Therapy services on site!

The approach at NoCoast Mobility Services is to evaluate the individual and identify an injury diagnosis and movement dysfunctions. Individuals will be assessed using a variety of different physical therapy & orthopedic screening tools, as well as biomechanical analysis to identify weaknesses which can affect overall CrossFit movements. Clients will be educated on the anatomy, physical therapy diagnosis, and the tools to empower themselves to use the treatment recommendations for recovery. Findings are collaborated with coaching staff, so that workouts are modified appropriately based on current injury, biomechanical faults, or movement dysfunction.
