Rebecca is certified in the Otago Exercise Program for progressive balance training. Additionally, Rebecca is certified as a Functional Standards for Optimal Aging Expert (FSOAE) and is trained to administer, interpret and recommend specific exercises based on results on the Adult Functional Independence Test (AFIT).
