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.
