Using Medical Fitness for Improving Function in Progressive Neurological Conditions
Can fitness evolve into a medical intervention that can effectively improve function in progressive neurological conditions? Peter Francis, founder of Renew Me Fitness located in the DC metropolitan area, believes that it can. Using his background in physical therapy and personal training, Peter and his team works with clients with conditions such as Parkinson's disease or strokes in their homes to renew their physical function. How does he do this? What has he learned from his work with patients? Listen to amazing, poignant, success stories that illustrate the power of movement that increases clients' empowerment by supporting recovery and function.
Peter Francis once dreamed about pursuing a fulfilling career as a physical therapist… that was until he started working in a physical therapy setting. Peter developed a love for working with elderly patients (especially those with a neurological condition like Parkinson’s Disease or a stroke). The only problem was that this population often needed more therapy than what insurance was willing to provide. He founded RenewMe Fitness as a safe and effective option for this population, as well as for aging adults who want to take back control of the aging process.
Peter has a Bachelor’s of Science, with an Allied-Health Track, from Salisbury University. He is certified as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association, as well as a Functional Aging Specialist through the Functional Aging Institute. He gained from of his experience with the aging population from working in various physical therapy settings. He loved the therapy environment, but he gets so much more out of working with clients, long term, in a personal training setting. He often tells his clients that he gets more out of training them, than they get from him. He truly values his time with his clients, not just working on physical goals, but spending the time and energy in each session to make deep emotional connections, and create lifelong bonds. He believes that his clients have no ceiling, and their potential is limitless.
