Lessons from the “Karate Kid”....

The most important gift that Mr. Miyagi gave to young Daniel-san was muscle memory. It wasn't really important that the fence got painted or that the cars got waxed, want was important that the actions repeated over and over, mirrored the actions of the Karate “. Over the years I too have used muscle memory to teach people how to overcome postural and structural imbalances, thus relieving the source of chronic pain.

Our body is constructed of muscle that has been designed to work efficiently with gravity. We need gravity to strengthen muscles and then again gravity becomes a dreaded enemy when we move with improper form. In our modern society, we are being worn down by repetitious movement and bad posture. The most common complaint I treat is the sore shoulders and neck that is a direct result from too many hours in front of the computer. If you get locked in the same position for a long period of time it has the same effect on the tissue as doing the same exercise over and over. It becomes a strain on the body and results in damage.

Most people hear the voice of a parent in your head saying “Stand up straight” or “don't slouch”, the problem is that no one has shown you what standing up straight really is. Whenever I do a movement assessment and reset someone in correct posture, it feels very strange to them. We become so invested in our bad posture that standing incorrectly feels comfortable and natural. It takes work to make the corrections and, quite frankly, most people are lazy. You have to be truly “sick and tired of being sick and tired” before someone develops the motivation for change.

This month on Wednesday October 26th at 7 pm I am leading a FREE class “Pain Free Movement”. I challenge you to come if:

      1. you started and exercise class and gave up because it hurt or was too difficult.

      2. You have chronic pain in your neck and shoulders, feet, or low back, but don't remember a specific injury to them

      3. recently lost significant weight or had surgery, and don't feel “at home” with the changes to your body

      4. Want to avoid surgery to replace knees, hips, or back surgery



If any of these statements are true, we can help. The purpose of this class is to teach you how to use your body effectively in gravity. To learn re-patterning exercises that will aid you correcting posture and strengthening weak muscle groups. To turn back the clock because no matter how old you are, tissue can be reformed and strengthened. It is my desire to give you a message of hope where others are telling you there's nothing you can do with negative message like “everyone in our family has bad knees (or backs or whatever)”, “This surgery is common for people your age”, “ You're just going to have live with this pain”

Your body is your most perfect dance partner, where you lead it...it will follow”
