Chronic Pain: GYROTONIC® helps aleviate the symptoms caused by chronic pain conditions such as Fibromylagia and Multiple Sclerosis. The movements in GYROTONIC® plus the rhythm of the breath gently massages the connective tissues, organs, and nerves and helps in the circulation of linfatic and cerebrospinal fluids. These are not pumped by the heart, but circulate only when we are moving. Improving our circulation means that the immune system is more healthy, the body can better rid itself of toxins, and the nerves are healthier. With chronic pain conditions we recommend to start GYROTONIC® slowly, and build up the duration and frequency as symptoms improve and flareups can become more controlled.

WHAT IS GYROTONIC®?

GYROTONIC® is a unique low-impact exercise method incorporating the key principles of yoga, tai-chi, ballet and swimming.

It simultaneously stretches and strengthens the body with minimal effort while releasing tension, developing strength and increasing range of motion.

Assisted by the GYROTONIC® Pulley Tower, exercises are performed in circular, spiraling and undulating movements.

Fluidity is the key; corresponding breathing patterns supply rhythm and enhances cardiovascular and neuromuscular stimulation.

WHO DOES GYROTONIC®?

GYROTONIC® is used worldwide with dancers, athletes, rehabilitation facilities, and as a general conditioning tool for people of all walks of life, regardless of age, physical abilities or limitations.
Devotees also include celebrities like Madonna, Naomi Campbell, Gwyneth Paltrow, Liv Tyler, Kim Cattrall, Teri Hatcher, Julianne Moore, Shaquille O´Neal and Tiger Woods!
