ACEL Compression Socks Work - A Doctor's Perspective
Rockford, MI (PRWEB) November 04, 2015 -- ACEL proudly announces an ongoing partnership with Dr. Nina Cherie Franklin, best known as Nina Cherie, PhD. Dr. Franklin is an avid exercise physiologist, research scientist and health advocate with more than 15 years of experience and expertise. As a compression socks company focused on bringing new apparel solutions in the areas of sports, recreation, health, and occupational markets, it was extremely important to ACEL to take a scientific approach in product development beyond its own experts on staff.
“Dr. Franklin can provide a perspective and feedback from a scientific standpoint that is unbiased and true to her insights formulated from many years of experience,” says Cathy Sovde, Director of Marketing Communications with ACEL. “She’s accomplished so much throughout many different areas of study within health, exercise and fitness, which allows Dr. Nina to bring a perspective to the table that pushes our team to think outside of the box.”
Dr. Franklin holds a BS in Kinesiology, a MS in Movement Science/Exercise Physiology, and a PhD in Kinesiology, Nutrition and Rehabilitation. Additionally she is certified and licensed Clinical Massage Therapist and an ACSM Certified Exercise Physiologist. Dr. Franklin is the author of “Leaving Your Fat Behind,” which is a woman’s guide to weight loss and long-term weight management and also maintains an active blog entitled “You, Your Body and Your Health.”
Recently Dr. Franklin took part in a short Q&A with ACEL after testing the all season compression socks for the past few months.
