Medical Exercise Specialist Training Series
Hello Medical Exercise Professional,
The next two decades will see the need for Medical Exercise Specialists (MES) grow and utilization Medical Exercise Training (MET) become recognized and accepted by medical professionals. MET is an important component in the management of chronic medical conditions. PostRehab.com provides the most comprehensive educational and certification programs for medical exercise professionals in the world to develop safe and effective medical exercise training programs.
We offer the internationally known Medical Exercise Program Director, Medical Exercise Specialist and Post Rehab Conditioning Specialist certifications. These programs are now available online through our Medical Exercise Specialist Training (MEST) series. The MEST program consists of 50 lessons with detailed clinical anatomy training, medical exercise protocols and medical exercise (MET) case studies and marketing/business development lessons.
MEST lesson titles range from “The Role of the Medical Exercise Professional” to “Medical Exercise Guidelines/Protocols for the Spine” to “Multiple Streams of Income” to Medical Exercise Foundations”. Each lesson contains training tips and secrets we have gathered over the last 25 years to help you better manage your clients and build a successful practice. During those 25 years we helped many medical exercise professionals develop specific conditioning programs for their challenging clients as well as helping them establish profitable and successful MET practices.
We took the best of these experiences and strategies and added them to the MEST lessons. We guarantee these new lessons will give you everything you need to manage a wide range of medically based clients with exercise and lay the foundation for a strong practice.
