How Does Postural Therapy Work?

Posture alignment therapy falls into a new paradigm of health care. We look and listen to YOU, the person as a WHOLE. 

Instead of addressing your symptom (your pain), we look at the bigger picture (your POSTURE) to identify and address the ROOT CAUSE (origin).

Postural therapy works best under the guidance of a trained pain, performance and posture expert.  A Posture Alignment Specialsit is Egoscue University Certified.

Posture alignment therapy works through the power of a corrective exercise menu made to address your specific postural needs.  

Your menu will wake up and engage the muscles of your body and will help reposition, strengthen, stretch or create functional demand to eliminate incorrect musculoskeletal dysfunction.

Each exercise in a menu is specific to your posture deviations. The exercises are designed to facilitate normal muscle function and interaction. Muscles that are balanced work properly and provide the body with the ability to move more efficiently.  Over time, this helps bring your body back into it's proper "blue-print" design and function.

This position also gives us proper muscle balance, strength and flexibility resulting in no spine and joint pain or degeneration.

Good posture is necessary for success in the everyday actions of life.  Adhering to a Blue-Print Design allows the body to functioning efficiently and PAIN FREE.
