Is Posture Alignment Corrective Exercise Right For You?
The premise of natural pain relief without medication, manipulation or surgery usually sounds too good to be true to folks who are trying to decide if posture alignment therapy is right for them. We understand and want you to know that's okay.
I get asked that question almost every single day. It usually goes something like this:
" Hi Deb -I'm interested in learning more about posture alignment therapy for my (insert pain/posture issue here). How do I know if Postural Therapy will work for me?"
Sound like you?
You body is talking! The chronic pain you're experiencing is telling you that your body is out of balance and what you're currently doing to care for it ISN'T WORKING.
If you've been doing the same pain relief dance over and over, and the sypmtpoms keep returning, STOP the insanity. Something needs to change.
The first step is to understand that your pain has more to do with your position (posture) than the symtpom (your pain). You're body must be restored back towards it's oridinal blue-print design and function if you are to successfully and permanently resolve the issue.
