Alleviate Chronic Pain By Addressing the Root Of the Problem

By Kaylie Stein, CMT, PAS

Regain a pain-free body, naturally and holistically, by addressing the root cause of pain your posture. If you or someone you know suffer from chronic pain including, but not limited to, migraines, arthritis, plantar fasciitis, neck, shoulder, lower back, hip, knee or foot pain, you have likely been on medications, through costly physical therapy or even surgery consults. You might already know that these common practices only mitigate the symptoms temporarily or not even at all.

There's an easier way to correct the root cause of your pain. Address the underlying postural dysfunctions associated with chronic pain through posture alignment therapy.

Posture alignment therapy is a holistic approach to re-educating the deeper postural muscles of the body in order to return the body to its original blueprint design ? its functional, pain-free design. As postural muscles become dysfunctional through daily misuse, disuse or injury, the skeletal, muscular, respiratory, digestive and essentially all systems of the body become compromised and are subject to pain and compensation.

The goal of posture alignment therapy is to gently stretch and strengthen the deeper postural muscles to re-educate them on their proper design function, thereby realigning your body and eliminating any stress caused by imbalance. The more functional your structure, the less stress is put on the systems of the body.

Everybody's dysfunctions and compensations are different, but our design is the same. Through posture alignment therapy each individual receives a custom set of exercises designed specifically to address your unique posture. Very rarely is the sight of the pain the cause of it. Pain is just a symptom of dysfunction somewhere else in the body. By just treating the symptom, we never address the reason it appeared in the first place.

When you treat the body as one cohesive unit, you can avoid all types of current and future pain and injury. If you experience any kind of chronic pain, listen. Pain is your body's only way of communicating that something is wrong and you need to fix it. Posture alignment therapy will give you the tools you need to live a completely pain-free and active lifestyle.
