Other health and sports practitioners whom I work with on a regular basis:
Georgia Sports Chiropractic - Dr. Josh Glass works with athletes of all abilities to treat and prevent musco-skeletal injuries as well as biomechanical imbalances. He also treats common aches and pains associated with everyday life. Other services at his office include an AlterG Anti-gravity treadmill, a hyperbaric chamber and pneumatic compression. Dr. Glass has personally helped me recover from plantar fascitis, muscular imbalance and the effects of vertigo.
Georgia Sports Massage - A group of licensed sports massage therapists that enhance their client’s active lifestyles. I can attest that I would not have made it through 2 Ironman races if it weren’t for the wonders Collette Ragan Glass performed on my muscles!
Continuum Sports Solutions - Kyle O’Day specializes in working with injured athletes to get them back into peak shape. In addition, he plans and implements strength and stretching regimens to not only prevent injury but to elicit peak performance in his clients.
55 Nine Performance - Husband and wife team, Eddie and Namrita O’Dea provide expert bike fitting, Dartfish video analysis, coaching for mountain bikers, cyclists and triathletes as well as sports nutrition.
