You will undergo body composition testing with a professional- grade analyzer to determine your pounds of fat, pounds of lean tissue, percentage of body fat, and your hydration levels. Meet weekly with your exercise coach for one-on- one resistance-training instruction and with the nutritionist. At the end of the program, your body is retested to show results. The program includes: Body Composition Analysis (three tests total, at weeks one, four and eight), personalized one-on-one nutrition consultation, one-on-one personal training, access to Fitness Advantage, and one month of Nutrition Now. $1,215; information and registration: 206.839.4782 or echen@wac.net FEATURED SERVICES Active Isolated Stretching Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) provides effective, dynamic, facilitated stretching of major muscle groups. More important, AIS provides functional and physiological restoration of superficial and deep fascia planes. Using a two-second stretch has proven to be the key in avoiding reflexive contraction of the antagonistic muscle. Without activating muscle-group contraction, restoration of full range of motion and flexibility can be achieved successfully. $70/hour, $40/30 minutes; information and scheduling: 206.839.4780, wellness@wac.net; by appointment only Intro pack special: $189 for three sessions Acupuncture The National Institutes of Health recognizes acupuncture as effective in treating more than 40 conditions. Back pain, neck pain, sciatica, migraines, asthma, and colitis are a few commonly treated illnesses.
