Tip of the Month!Updated - 2/17/2020 (Monday)
Listen to my latest lecture at Florida Blue - Sarasota. The title of the lecture is called, "Introduction to Balance". I discuss three major reasons why balance deteriorates as we age. Also, I list the solutions that you can take to improve your balance and keep your independence. The exercises I teach you can be done in the comfort of your home while you watching TV!

What are students saying about Balance University?...
I received a lot of great feedback regarding their happiness and how appreciative they were to have the opportunity to participate in the class. Most also made comments that they noticed the marked improvement in their balance, strength, core and flexibility. - Melissa Mills, MS, RCEP (Exercise Physiologist and BU instructor) |
Melissa Mills, MS, ACSM-CEP
Clinical Exercise Physiologist Melissa originally joined our team at Seneca Wellness and Fitness Center (now FYZICAL) in the spring of 2005 upon completion of her Master's Degree in Exercise Science from McDaniel College. She received her Undergraduate Degree in Exercise Science, from Towson University. Following high school, she enrolled in a 5-year physical therapy program at College Misericordia in Wilkes Barre, PA. She completed 3 years but opted to change her major in order to concentrate on a health and wellness approach. In 2007, Melissa earned a certification through the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), as a Registered Clinical Exercise Physiologist (RCEP). With more than 12 years of experience and this certification, she is able to work with persons who have chronic diseases and other conditions in which exercise has been shown to provide therapeutic and/or functional benefit. She enjoys being able to combine the science of fitness and wellness with the science of rehabilitation. Melissa has a great deal of experience working with individuals with metabolic, pulmonary, cardiac, and orthopaedic conditions as well as pre- and post-natal fitness, and balance disorders. She also has additional expertise in preventive and rehabilitation programs for geriatrics and individuals with diabetes, cancer, and other comorbidities. |
