About TIPS - What Makes Us Strong
The TIPS training system improves range of motion, stability, balance, and functional strength while retraining critical movement patterns. It also trains and conditions correct body mechanics with job or home activities, prepares the body for work, creates movement efficiency, reduces joint stress, and can counter the effects of repetitive job activities, vibration, positional stresses, loading, and more. While the TIPS approach continued to evolve over the years, the founding principles that drove the start of Tailored Injury Prevention Solutions are still very much intact.
- Provide a true solution to the problem source.
- Keep it simple.
- Keep it relevant.
It is why I can say that TIPS consistently reduces our clients' MSDs, sprains, and strains by 50% – 90% in the first year and that those results are sustainable.
More About Maria Sall… Who Is She Anyway?
Ergonomist, Exercise Physiologist, Injury Prevention Specialist, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, Functional Movement Screens 1 & 2 (FMS), and More… And even more, PLUS 25+ years of experience helping people, teams, and businesses succeed in reducing injuries, stress, and costs.
Maria is a big kid that loves to play and thrive and help others do the same. If we hurt, we don’t play. If we struggle to function, we don’t thrive. This is true for both individuals and the companies that they work for. With her passion for helping others feel good doing what they do and have more fun in life, Maria looks for every opportunity to do just that.
In college, she started teaching fitness and coaching people. In the military, she became a Master Fitness Trainer, helping her fellow soldiers and the whole company be fit for duty and for life. With every auto injury, work comp, or other patient she worked with in rehabilitation facilities, she would dig deep to find a way to help her patients where others had not. At every company she has worked with, she seeks out and helps as many people as she can, even those that initially do not want help or think they are beyond it.
It is said we make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. We only get one shot at life; let’s make it a good one!
In her free time, Maria loves to ski, hike, kayak, mountain bike, read, and ballroom dance. Maria has two children who have grown up learning the importance of health and safety and who regularly share their application of this in their own work environments, making their mother very proud indeed.
We teach people how to use their body without using it up.
