Rehabilitation training focuses on slow isolated exercises, to engage, \u2018reprogramme\u2019 or \u2018re-train\u2019 the muscles into activating in the correct sequence. Because it obliges the body to perform movements efficiently without subconscious muscular \u2018cheating\u2019 and\/or postural assists, it\u2019s a highly effective way of re-training bad habits or re-engaging muscles that have not been activated because of previous injury\/surgery or skeletal anomalies i.e. scoliosis.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”How old can someone be to attend classes and personal training sessions?”][vc_column_text]People have to be 18 to take part in any of our classes or Personal Training sessions.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”What am I getting for my money?”][vc_column_text]The quality and standard of the training and equipment used in a Tens class is second to none.
