Rehab and Crossed Posture Syndromes – Concepts, Exercise and Execution
Progress your ability to retrain postural Balance, Alignment and Motion in Module 2 as you discover how easy it is individualize exercises for just about any body in our tech society.
Systematically connecting perception and reality with the StrongPosture® concepts and PostureZone® framework will deepen your ability to assess, communicate and functionally strengthen posture. Trademarked StrongPosture® MUST vs TRY cueing address subtleties of kinetic chain motion to really focus effort and training on weak and neglected mechanical links.
The observational description of Janda’s Upper and Lower Crossed Syndromes is reframed as cueable masses – the 4 PostureZones® – for a truly actionable way to mechanically and neurologically retrain posture towards symmetry. Coupled with postural awareness of concepts and images, and your care, it’s a powerful strategy to build the value of posture care to move well and pain-free.

From Functional Compensation to Structural Adaptation: The Cascade of Posture Breakdown
Posture breaks down with predictable patterns of functional compensations and structural adaptations, where neurologic facilitation and behavioral habits is reinforced by spirals of mechanical weakness and overuse.
Module 3 addresses postural low back and neck pain, with specific attention on strengthening diaphragmatic breathing patterns. Attentional focus exercises strengthen, refine and progress accurate control of core coupled whole body motion for changes people really feel.
Integrate active motion control retraining with the unique contributions of passive therapies such as spinal manipulation and muscular therapies. StrongPosture® education and demos systematically promote bio-mechanic understanding, along with an appreciation of the value of posture care for people living seated in a folded, tech society.

Balance and the Core Integration – From Low back pain to Fall Protection and successful aging
Posture is how you balance your body, and weakening balance has real consequences for health and mortality. Research shows balance and coordination exercises improve back pain, in addition to reducing the risk of injury from a fall – a real risk for aging boomers. Yet postural balance training is a sorely neglected facet of many exercise programs.
Module 4 progresses B.A.M. StrongPosture® retraining with progressive core integration, with an emphasis on successful aging. Bench-marking static posture and dynamic balance sets the bar for comparison and measurable improvement.
Especially for sedentary workers and the aged, restricting structure (posture) into flexion for a significant part of life has a real effect on how we move all the time… and on how we function all the time. You’ll learn why and how strengthening posture as people age not only rehabs injury, but can play a tremendous role to keep people moving well, and to keep on moving well as they age.

StrongPosture® LifeHabits: A Strategy for Rehab, Performance, & Active Aging
Strengthening posture is about more than rehab. StrongPosture® B.A.M. retrains accuracy of core controlled, whole body stabilization to optimize the effectiveness of rehab.
Posture is the external expression of both bio-mechanics and state of mind. All exercise is not created equal because we get better at doing whatever it is we’re doing.
By teaching people to understand their body, and empowering them with self-care techniques and individualized exercises (as well as appropriate clinical care), the posture specialist can play an active role in promoting postural health in society.
Regular posture exercise and periodic posture re-exams can help people move and feel better, exercise more effectively, and even look trimmer and younger. In other words, Stand Taller to Live Longer to live better and age successfully.

The Most Essential Motion: Breathing
Breathing is the most crucial movement when it comes to rehabilitating exercises involving the core. To achieve effective results, it’s essential to retrain both biomechanical and behavioral breathing patterns.
The StrongPosture® model and protocols focus on integrating breath control as a priority. This is done by assessing each individual’s functional baseline of breathing in relation to their postural balance, alignment, and core motion.
The approach involves using “the test becomes the exercise, and the exercise the test” methodology, where individuals are empowered to correct subtle functional deviations of motor patterns towards accuracy and control. This is achieved by systematically correcting their somatic perceptions through the use of MUST vs. TRY cues, helping them align their subjective experience with objective reality.

ACE Your StrongPosture Habits
The ACE message emphasizes the importance of personal posture awareness, retraining accurate control, and optimizing the posture environment. It’s crucial to promote posture care for individuals of all ages, including children, young adults, successful agers, and geriatrics.
The approach involves fostering posture awareness, teaching somatic control, and assessing the individual’s posture environment. Additionally, it’s essential to mitigate infectious disease transmission, including Covid-19 and beyond.
The StrongPosture® exercise program is designed to focus on posture care for generations, ensuring that individuals can maintain healthy posture habits and prevent postural deviations that may lead to musculoskeletal problems.

In 20 years of practice and countless continuing education hours, I don’t think I’ve ever gotten more out of a seminar that I will use on Monday.
I physically feel better after taking this course,
which makes me confident to tell patients about it! Thanks!
Dr. Weiniger’s knowledge and ability to tie things together was terrific. Tremendous info to review. Research excerpts were well chosen and relevant.
StrongPosture protocols are the perfect tool for stabilizing the spine and the core while teaching patterns of motion to train whole body control.
Exact form and positioning is critical with these exercises. Excellent – this is just what I have been looking for.
Practical, easily implemented and makes sense to patients. Real solutions for real problems.
One of the most beneficial aspects of the course is the practical protocols on wall and ball and long term applications for practice use with patients – especially boomers.
All things presented were valuable. This information is going to change people’s lives.
Concise and understandable approach to core strengthening and practicable application to all patients in my office – advanced and basic.
Realistic ways to integrate these concepts and
patient training into the practice tomorrow!
I learned better ways to implement core exercises/isolation and how to use demos to relate to patients. Personally I loved the ball work.
The entire country is suffering from an epidemic of posture issues. Ipad, iphone, texting, computers etc.. Why not learn to be the expert in correcting this? This CE modules has filled the holes in my practice. I highly recommend it.
Thank you Dr. Weiniger for this amazing on line course. It was packed full of information that is extremely useful for my practice.
Whether you are adjusting, acupuncture, the different therapies, other rehabs, if you don’t incorporate the posture exercises you’re missing a piece.
This course is applicable to be applied immediately in practice. Presentation is clear and progressive, providing an effective learning experience.
HOW, not only why, posture exercises can increase function as we age. Good solid details without being overwhelmed. The practical applications were priceless!
I have enjoyed the online training. There is ample research and information for the practitioner, and also concepts and videos to show you how to implement right away.
Easy to integrate low tech exercise/rehab that can make a value added service and a positive change in patient treatment.
I learned I need to slow down and focus on the muscles more. Also a better way to explain the exercises to patients. Thank you.
Thank you for not being another “sales pitch” seminar and actually caring about what we’re teaching our patients/clients.
