The Process
Services
Posture alignment can be a long process that requires much attention to detail. For each individual, we create a set of exercises based on your current posture needs. To create this test, we start off with a functional test assessment on the first visit. For each session after that, we will help you through a series of exercises which you will then take home to continue doing during the week. Each week we take a picture of your current progress so you can see exactly how much you’ve changed each visit. As your body continues to grow stronger and change, the exercises that are created for you will also change.

Pain is the way the body communicates to get your attention.
The site of pain is rarely the cause of pain. Most chronic pain originates from poor habitual posture. Things like your work environment, improper physical training, past injuries and surgeries can cause muscle imbalances, which in turn creates poor posture. Emotional trauma and chronic stress can also add to the effect of chronic pain which is why treating the position and posture of the body is so important.
This is why pain always resurfaces in old injuries, even long after they were thought to have healed. While the site of the pain might be “fixed”, the body is still adapted to its own improper posture it used during those times. The body uses those imbalances as a crutch, and this oftentimes causes pain to return back to the root cause. This is why proper posture will help the condition to take care of itself and fix its root cause as well as help heal many other problems.
The Egoscue Solution
Here at Joyful Body Therapy we use Egoscue to help people. Egoscue is a unique and revolutionary method which treats chronic pain by giving the body back its power to heal and regenerate itself. Based on restoring symmetry back to the posture, this method eliminates dysfunction in the body and its compensatory responses. This in turn teaches the body to strengthen and grow its weaker and less utilized muscles, which allows for the body to naturally return to a more relaxed position.
This method of empowering the body's ability to restore and heal itself was developed by Pete Egoscue, an renowned Anatomical functionalist. He identified the causes and effects of his own postural deviations from a Marine injury, which caused years of chronic pain. Using this method, he was able to free himself from the chronic pain he endured for years and by becoming an Exercise Therapist, he was able to help others as well. Pete now trains therapists to use his 8 Laws of Health to alleviate pain and promote better physical and emotional health with their clients, which is what we use here today.
