MOVEMENT IS MEDICINE

COACH JONES

Kim Jones (MA, CSCS, Z-Health, USAW), aka: Jones Strength, is a Performance Coach, Functional Medicine Health Coach, Precision Nutrition Certified Nutritionist (PN1) and IFBB Pro based out of Scottsdale, Arizona.


MISSION STATEMENT

I teach fundamentals of movement to help people regain their physical freedom and return to the activities they love.

Pain is NOT the price we pay for getting older. Neither is movement dysfunction. They are the results of poor signal quality within the nervous system (visual, vestibular, proprioceptive inputs), and ignoring our bodies’  "check engine" lights. 

We ALL need to perform, whether it’s in the office or on the field. Improving mapping in the nervous system is the key to movement efficiency.

I’m here to help you move and feel your best!
