WHAT IS ACTIVE ALIGNMENT BODYWORK?

Active Alignment Bodywork is a while body and mind approach by integrating many scientific based techniques to achieve and overall "Uplifting" experience. 

The most important technique used is YOU!

​

With your assistance during the session we utilize ACTIVE facilitated stretches and strengthening techniques to correct and realign postural imbalances.

WHAT ARE POSTURAL IMBALANCES?

With daily activitires and occupational duties, especually those that are of a repetitive nature, imblanaces are created by the OVERUSE of particular muscles and the UNDER USE of other. 

Creating Asymetry .

​Lengthen -- &-- Strengthen 

With Active Alignment Bodywork we will focus on

 LENGTHENING tight over used muscles and STRENGTHENING the

weak, inhibited under used muscles.

Resulting in a synergistic balanced Musculoskeletal system . 

​

DOES POOR POSTURE PRODUCE PAIN?

-- NOT NECESSARILY...​

Poor posture does not always showcase pain symptoms.

 However, it does restrict range of motion, compromising our Human

 Movement System .

Poor postrure places stress and fatigue on our musculoskeletal system, limiting the deliverance of oxygenated blood to the tissues which is VITAL for nourishment and funtion. Chronic pain will occur if postural imbalances are left untreated.  

Overtime predictable patterns will develop due to poor posture. These compensation patterns will lead to many acute or chronic conditions including:

.....

Headaches/ Migraines

Neck Cricks

Shoulder impingement

Rotator Cuff Injuries

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Spinal Misalignment

​

Lower body conditions such as:

​Sacroiliac joint pain and dysfunction

Excessive Lordosis

Hip imbalances

Sciatica 

Knee tendinitis 

IT Band Syndrome

Plantar Fasciitis 

.....

​Corrective Alignment massage can be an effective way to relieve chronic pain, realign posture, enhance optimal movement , rehabilitate injuries, reduse stress and promote an overall sense of well being.
