Mobility Training in Melbourne
Address desk work stiffness, improve daily movement, transform your body
If you spend hours at a desk, you're likely experiencing constant lower back pain or stiffness, tight hips that affect your posture, shoulder and neck tension from computer work, difficulty with simple movements like squatting or reaching overhead, and feeling "old" despite being relatively young.
You're not alone. Research shows 77% of Australian office workers sit for 7.3 hours daily, creating predictable movement problems that only worsen with time. The good news? Targeted mobility training can address these issues at their root cause, not just mask the symptoms with painkillers or massage.
What Is Mobility Training?
Mobility = Flexibility + Strength + Control
While flexibility is passive range of motion (how far you can stretch), mobility is active range of motion—how far you can move under your own power with control and stability.
Think of it this way:
- Flexibility: How far someone can push your leg up
- Mobility: How high you can lift your leg yourself
- Beyond Movement Approach: Building both, plus the strength to use these ranges safely
Our mobility training integrates:
- Dynamic stretching sequences
- Joint mobility drills
- Strength through range exercises
- Stability and control work
- Movement pattern correction
