Do you play golf?  

If yes then we are the golf partner you have always been looking for – we are Optimum Performance Golf Fitness (OPGF) at [d7] Spatial Medicine Clinic.

Optimum Performance Golf Fitness programs will work with you to:

  • ·         Improve club head speed
  • ·         Bolster driving distance
  • ·         Decrease golf trajectory errors
  • ·         Reduce total golf scores
  • ·         Reduce the impact of injury

We are launching our  new OPGF program pre Christmas 2013 this gives you the golfer ample time in the non qualifying season to not only improve your game but the golfer within you.

Not only are we Golf Fitness and Corrective Exercise Specialist – we are golfers we understand it from your side .

There is a popular image that golf is a leisurely sport. And yet any of us who play golf know it to be the opposite.
 Golf is a game / sport that require a high level of skill, flexibility, mobility, strength, timing, endurance and hand to eye coordination.
This skill base needs to be maintained and replicated over and over again across 18 holes.  

We as golfers need to withstand high levels of force and load.
So often we fall foul of golf related injuries and traumas – most of these injuries occur from cumulative trauma caused by technical deficiencies coupled with existing musculo-skeletal / postural dysfunctions.
Simply put poor swing mechanics coupled with poor posture.

At our [d7] Clinic our OPGF programs can change all that for you – we train golfers to be fit with corrective exercise strategies.

 While most golf fitness programs focus on training in one direction (one plane of movement- sagital plane) we will utilize a Progressive Integrated Approach and focus on developing functional strength and neuro-muscular efficiency.
This approach involves all three planes of movement / direction as well as
  • ·         Flexibility training
  • ·         Core training
  • ·         Balance training
  • ·         Plyometric training
  • ·         Resistance training
  • ·         Cardio-respiratory training


Training is client centric and can be on a 121, duet or small group basis (not exceeding 7)

Add Essential Oils for your Heatlh

I hear it all the time ‘I want to be fitter’ when in fact what we really mean is we want to be slimmer/ look better.   Of course, we all want to look and feel better – but not at the expense of our ‘health’ -Health is so much more than a physical image or numbers on a scale. As Health Coach I believe ‘healthier’ is more than the sum of how slim we look or any number on a scale – being ‘healthier’ is three dimensional – 3D – it’s about eating nutritious foods, that allow your body and mind to thrive. It all starts with nutrition you just cannot train your body or ‘run’ out of bad or poor eating habits. From my personal perspective it’s about the nutrient quality of the foods – keeping our ‘guts’ healthy to keep our immune system healthy, that in turn provides us with the physical and psychological energy that motivates us to move, be more active, cope with stress, be social interactive and enjoy life’s little and big adventures   As well as eating nutritious
