The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® Method
What is the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® method? It is a layered body mind exercise program. It uses a specially designed machine to support, encourage and facilitate greater motion, range and strength of movement.
Its founder, Juliu Horvath, continues to create. He has said “I want music in my body and poetry in my body, and I want to be skillful without struggle; it has to come without struggle.”
The benefits of a GYROTONIC® program include increased flexibility, strength, suppleness and coordination.
The circular and spiraling 3D movements of the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® Method decompress and increase the functional capacity of the spine. They assist in stretching and strengthening muscles and stimulate and strengthen the connective tissues in and around the joints of the body. The movements trace the acupuncture meridians and stimulate the nerve pathways. The exercises are coordinated with breath patterns which facilitate aerobic and cardiovascular health and promote neuro-muscular rejuvenation.
The handle unit and pulley tower are fully adjustable to meet various client needs and assist in the rehabilitation of injuries. The tower is designed for smooth and consistent resistance and eliminates the muscular jarring common in many exercise modalities.
