Aquatic Personal Training
Taking personal training to a new level, the unique properties of water allow for creative and
aggressive fitness programming. The viscosity of water allows you to push, pull, run, jump, jack,
and jog much harder. The buoyant property of water unloads joints and allows for vigorous physical
activity with minimal or zero joint impact. Chest level water allows individuals to bear only about
25-35% of their body weight. Deep-water training is vigorous exercise with zero impact 100% of the
time. A great workout for any age; pools provide a great fitness playground for kids.

Pre/Post Natal Training
Pre-natal exercise is designed to promote good posture and spinal alignment, easing the strain and tensions involved with a changing body during pregnancy. Participants will learn to improve awareness of their bodies and prepare for the labor and delivery of their child. Additional benefits of exercise during pregnancy include reducing weight gain during pregnancy and after giving birth, improved sleep patterns and mood, a more comfortable labor, and alleviated back pain. Maintenance, not improvement of fitness levels, is the focus of exercise during this tender stage. Intensity of exercise, environment, and type of exercise are carefully considered in relation to the safety of the child's development.

Senior Fitness Training
No matter what your age or physical condition, appropriate physical activity is pertinent to good health. As people age, they lose muscle tissue and bone density. Strengthening exercises can rebuild or maintain muscle tissue and help slow the rate of age-related loss. In addition, working with our trainers will lead you toward improved joint range of motion, balance, and cardiovascular health.

Personal Pilates Training
Pilates Mat Training is an intense and challenging workout, concentrating on the "core" or "power center" of the body. The exercises performed are designed to create strong, lean, and flexible muscles. By focusing on the core, Pilates strengthens and tightens the "power center" from which all movement originates. Having a stronger core helps with balance, posture, and other everyday events. Pilates offers benefits not found in traditional strength and stretching programs.

Kids' Fitness Fun
Childhood obesity is a growing epidemic in today's society. It is important that children develop healthy habits at an early age, so that exercise and nutritious eating are lifelong healthy habits. Parents or caregivers must be present with children under the age of 10. Kids' fitness can also be scheduled in groups up to four. Yoga and aqua classes are of our most popular.

Nutrition Services
Nutrition is often the missing link to a healthy lifestyle. There are so many misconceptions and conflicting messages in the media and within society. Allow our dietitians to enlighten you with the path to a healthy, nutrition program, answering questions and clearing misconceptions. By being welcomed in your home and observing your lifestyle habits, the dietitians are able to assist you with behavior modifications and outline a healthy meal plan just for you. A nutrient analysis may be used to show you a specific breakdown of the caloric, vitamin, and mineral intake in your diet and provide suggestions for your optimal well being. Family plans are also available. Follow-up coaching sessions are highly recommended for optimal results, especially in weight loss. An initial session simply scratches the surface, while follow-up sessions allow dietitians to hold you accountable for your nutrition goals and keep you moving toward a successful outcome. This session is recommended before all other nutrition appointments. |

Licensed Massage Therapy
Massage Therapy is a system of stroking, pressing and kneading different areas of the body to relieve pain, relax, stimulate, and tone the muscle. Massage works on the soft tissues -- the muscles, tendons, and ligaments -- to improve muscle tone, reaching to deep layers of the muscle and even organs. Massage stimulates blood circulation and aids the lymphatic system, which runs parallel to the circulatory system, improving the elimination of toxins within the body.

Types of Massage:
Swedish – Possibly the most well known type of massage therapy. It is generally used to stimulate the relaxation response, release muscle tension, and increase blood and lymph circulation.
Trigger Point – Also known as (Myofascial) is a technique where concentrated pressure is applied to overactive nerve pathways (Trigger Points, commonly referred to as knots) to relieve chronic pain and break the pain / spasm / pain cycle.
Deep Tissue – Also known as (Structural Integration) is the use of slower strokes and direct deep pressure; used to release chronic muscle tension and to release chronic patterns of tightness.
Injury / Rehabilitative Massage - Specific massage protocols used to aid the rehabilitation and healing process of injuries due to overuse, surgery, and accidents.
Sports Massage – Specific groups of strokes applied to specific muscle groups used to enhance performance, reduce soreness, increase flexibility and range of motion, reduces and helps prevent injuries as well as speeds muscle tissue recovery time. It is used mostly on athletes who have been training, but it can be tailored to any athlete at any stage of training.
Pre/Post Natal / Pregnancy Massage – Is generally done with the client in a side lying position, as to not do harm to the baby, and ease tension of the mother’s body. It consists of gentle, relaxing strokes; some friction strokes may be used to relieve muscle knots. |

Services’ Policies:
- Packages and sessions must be utilized within a 3-month timeframe.

If you have a special situation, which may cause you to have several less than 24-hour notice cancellations, please inform us immediately, so we may work with you accordingly.

The staff member will apply a free session to the client's package should he or she cancel with less than 24 hours notice more than once in a two-month timeframe.
- Switching an appointment to another date within less than 24 hours notice is still considered a "Less than 24-hour Notice Cancellation" because the Escape 2 fitness staff will not have enough time to fill that timeslot with another appointment.
- "No Show Policy" states that if a client does not call Escape 2 Fitness to cancel an appointment prior to the staff member showing up to his or her home, the session will be granted toward their package even if they haven't used a "Life Happens" session in that timeframe.
