Starting on Monday, Total Fitness at Russell Medical Center will be celebrating National Rehabilitation Week, an event designed to increase awareness about rehabilitation services.

Part of the week’s activities will include a shoe fit screening and gait analysis, which is scheduled at Total Fitness on Tuesday from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. According to Jack Korte, director of rehabilitation services at RMC, this analysis is a brief clinical screening designed to make recommendations regarding what types of footwear to use for specific activities. “Runners can get great recommendations,” he said. Physical therapists will also be on hand to discuss body mechanics, like the way a participant moves their feet, ankles, knees and hips.
