S.M.A.R.T. Fitness Assessment AND Conceirge Physical Therapy

 The S.M.A.R.T. Fitness Assessment stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Reproducible, and Time-Oriented because that is the nature of the goals we establish to make your fitness journey as objective and safe as possible. Like traditional Orthopedic Physical Therapy Evaluations, we measure ROM, strength, balance, agility, postural stability, joint mobility, flexibility, body composition analysis, and neuromuscular control. However, unlike traditional Physical Therapy Evaluations, our SMART Fitness Assessment focuses on the entire musculoskeletal system from your head to your toes (not just what hurts) to address anything that could interfere with your goal of becoming the best version of yourself.

 

Our comprehensive evidence based examinations and our use of cutting edge tech enables our clinicians to be exceptional at identifying problems before they happen and to accurately monitor your progress towards achieving the best version of your self. We are located in the  Powerhouse Gym of Stuart, FL and have access to all the latest in fitness equipment to ensure that we can effectively execute our mission to empower our clients in achieving what they may even see as impossible. 

 

The services offered at Atlas Health and Wellness ensure there is no more guesswork in achieving your goals, we don't use trendy fads that come and go every 5 years , we don't provide unsustainable exercise programs that result in injury, we don't follow work out guru's that use performance enhancing drugs to manipulate your expectations to get more clicks on social media, 

 

Our approach is to combine your break neck work ethic and commitment to achievement with the our cold hard science and cutting edge technology to get results that even the Greek gods would envy. 

"Our mission is to empower the individuals to shoulder the weight of our world" - Dr. David J. Hartwig CEO and founder of Atlas Health and Wellness

  • Want to decrease your waist size and increase your muscle density? Our Wellness Evaluations are comprehensive and are geared specifically to help individuals lose waist size and increase muscle density in a safe and objective manner. The InBody 380 is a portable, professional-grade body composition analyzer designed for quick and precise assessments of an individual's physical makeup. Unlike traditional scales that only measure total body weight, the InBody 380 uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)—a non-invasive method that sends low-level electrical currents through the body to differentiate between muscle, fat, water, and other tissues. This technology allows for a comprehensive breakdown of body composition in as little as 30 seconds, making it ideal for regular use in fitness centers, gyms, or home settings. For individuals engaged in strength training and exercise programs, the InBody 380 plays a crucial role by providing objective, data-driven insights into how training regimens are reshaping the body, going beyond superficial metrics like weight loss to reveal true progress in muscle development and fat reduction.
