“A unique feature, of the Core-Tex that I think I enjoy the most is its ability to move very freely in the transverse plane. It’s also a wonderful tool to utilize to simulate a lot of the things that our body does when it’s airborne. It’s a great piece of equipment that creates an environment that simulates some really cool biomechanical reactions that you just can’t do on any other surface because it’s truly reactive…When you’re on the Core-Tex, you’ve got to sense it - you got to feel it you got to smell it and sway with it in all three planes of motion and immediately you realize that you have to react to this thing!” Gary Gray

"When it comes to balance and stabilization training equipment accept no substitute; the Core-Tex is my favorite tool to train with. It not only challenges my clients to master balance and stabilization, but they have fun doing it. The Core-Tex helps enhance the results I am able to obtain with all my clients. From sedentary to professional athletes and all populations in between the Core-Tex provides the perfect (real world) environment to challenge all three planes of motion while at the same time offering translational forces. Talk about transfer of training effect (functional training)!" Bill Sonnemaker

Core-Tex
The Evolution in Revolution
The Core-Tex is a revolutionary tool that can help anyone improve their functional movement capabilities. The Core-Tex uses its unique floating design to train the body to learn how to decelerate as it reacts and reaches away from its comfort zone.
- Access a higher level neuromuscular facilitation and integration
- Functionally integrate the body's core through a full spectrum of movements
- Evaluate weight distribution and balance shifts during sport specific tasks
- Provide unique rehab and performance movements for the shoulder girdle and upper body
- Use in multiple positions to mobilize joints and increase range of motion - standing, kneeling, sitting and lying down
Core-Tex challenges the critical righting reflexes of the neck, eyes, and inner ear which is critical to orientating ourselves to gravitational forces and accelerations of our center of gravity.
The movements produced on the Core-Tex recruit the oblique myofascial connections between one side of the torso and opposite lower extremity that are the foundations of functional movements (walking, running, throwing, lunging, ect.)
