Fitness for Dental Hygienists - Functional Fitness Solutions

Hi, I’m Kim.

RDH and Fitness & Wellness Coach

I help fellow dental hygienists stay mentally & physically resilient in their careers. ✨

Where do you want to start?

Achieve Wellness in and out of the Operatory

Injury prevention…stress relief…boosted energy—and that’s just the beginning!

Prevent Injuries & Improve Your Posture

Helping patients maintain a healthy smile is your passion, but it shouldn’t come at the cost of your own health and posture.

With functional exercises, tailored specifically for dental hygienists, you can avoid injury while increasing your posture.

My training programs are designed to counteract the physical demands of clinical dental hygiene, ensuring that you move, work, and live free of discomfort.

Relieve Stress & Improve Mental Clarity

As hygienists, we’re so focused on patient care, that sometimes we forget about ourselves. But it’s equally as important to take care of your mental well-being.

The stress, burnout, and compassion fatigue are real!

Through meditation, mindfulness, and breathwork you can not only relieve stress and improve mental clarity but also reignite your passion for your work.

Increase Your Daily Energy

Do you bend over backwards for your patients all morning only to feel exhausted by lunch?

Imagine ending your day with energy to spare—no more mid-day slumps either. Boosted strength equals boosted stamina.

The stronger we are mentally and physically, the more resilient we become. Because your body should support you, not the other way around!

Why Choose Functional Fitness

Achieving balance as a dental hygienist, both mentally and physically, goes beyond the operatory.

Incorporating yoga, functional strength training, and myofascial release techniques into your routine can be transformative.

These practices offer a holistic approach to combating the occupational hazards of dental hygiene.
