What if the imbalanced posture created the pain?
What if the poor spinal alignment caused the osteoporosis?
What if the faulty knee alignment caused the osteoarthritis?
Would that change the way you treat your pain?
It has for the thousands of clients I have worked with at Oregon Exercise Therapy as an Egoscue University certified Postural Alignment Specialist and Advanced Exercise Therapist. Clients, who were dependent on pain killers and muscle relaxers because of back spasms, have been able to get off all medication. Clients, who were told they’d be in a wheelchair because of the osteoporosis, have gotten back to daily walks, gardening, and dancing again. Clients, who were scheduled for a knee replacement, have canceled the surgery because they are pain free. And all because they changed the way they were looking at and treating their pain.
So, what’s it to you? The chicken or the egg?
