Functional Range Conditioning is a system of training that can help people to achieve better control of their bodies. It is a part of the Functional Range Systems, which was created by Andreo Spina to provide a framework to efficiently and effectively improve athlete care and performance. Valentine is a certified FRC mobility specialist and incorporates this into treatment sessions in order to improve patients' joint health, increase functional mobility, and reduce risk of musculoskeletal injuries. 

Functional Range Conditioning aims to:

  • increase tissue load bearing capacity
  • improve joint control and strength throughout the available range of motion
  • reduce the difference between active range of motion and passive range of motion

 

Based on these factors, FRC can be especially useful for:

  • Jiu jitsu / combat athletes
  • Gymnasts
  • Dancers
  • Cross Fit athletes
  • patients with Ehlers Danlos syndrome (connective tissue laxity)
