Demonstrating how to apply biomechanics and kinesiology to Swiss ball assessments and functional training techniques is the focus of Advanced Swiss Ball Training for Rehabilitation. Swiss Ball utilization for injury prevention and rehabilitation is illustrated by Paul. Identification of postural problems and instabilities is learned through Swiss ball assessments. Corrective exercises, tailored to your client’s condition and training level, can be developed after completing the course.

This approach stems from Paul’s 30 years of clinical practice and diverse educational background as a Holistic Health Practitioner, Neuromuscular and Sports Massage Therapist.

The current trend in the fitness industry is a shift away from machine-based bodybuilding programs towards functional training. This trend has introduced two significant changes to the industry:
- Introduction of many new training tools.
- A shift in the role of the fitness professional.
As the machine era concludes, gyms and fitness studios are now equipped with a variety of training tools, both new and old. Free weights and medicine balls are regaining popularity, accompanied by items like wobble boards, foam rollers, the Fitter, and Tornado Balls. The Swiss ball, traditionally used by physical therapists since the 1960s, has become an effective functional training modality in the fitness industry.
The Swiss ball’s popularity has brought a new dimension to functional training. Similar to free weights, Swiss balls offer versatility for numerous exercises. One unique feature is the unstable training environment it creates, resulting in high levels of nervous system activation. By challenging the nervous system during training, athletes are better prepared for demanding sports situations, while the average user is ready for unexpected events in daily life that could lead to injury.
