Edye Discount
Edye is our Rehabilitation Therapist and has played a big role in expanding our physical therapy program at Synergy. She incorporates traditional physical therapy exercises (bands, exercise balls, weights & synergy unit) with the core strengthening of Pilates exercises and equipment including the Pilates reformer and tower.
Edye has been a certified Pilates instructor for many years, undergoing rigorous training to become certified instructing patients and clients on the reformer and other Pilates equipment. She completed over 250 hours of concentration necessary for her master certification. She is always updating her education and certifications in order to stay current with the latest techniques. Understanding severe low back pain due to an injury ,she is diligent and persistent about core strengthening in order to try and help avoid surgical procedures in addition to pain prevention for post-rehab situations.
Edye has many years of experience in fitness and rehab. Before joining the staff at Synergy, she ran a fitness center for a corporate headquarters, in Northeast Philadelphia. Along with her many certifications, she instructed classes in indoor cycling, water aerobics, bodyworks and still continues two senior stretch classes each week in Trenton, NJ.
Edye has added a mat Pilates class for people with MS, which was an easy transition due to all she has learned from working with Dr. Grozalis. Her certification in nutrition is helpful with dietary concerns many of our patients have. Edye also enjoys personal training and, because of her many certifications and experience, is able to keep work-outs new and exciting by integrating many different types of exercise.
