Using the Egoscue Method

Treat musculoskeletal pain without drugs, surgery, or manipulation!

If your daily movements are met with pain, discomfort, and/or fatigue, it's possible that your body is telling you that you need to regain the functional postural position that the human body was meant to maintain.

Functional Fitness Training works by returning the body to its original blueprint the standing normal anatomical position. In this position the 8 major load joints (shoulders, hips, knees and ankles) are directly aligned. An individual can deviate from this position for several reasons (including past trauma) and the result is muscular imbalance, loss of strength and flexibility, compensation, and finally, pain.

At Pathways, our Egoscue certified Postural Alignment Specialists will assess your posture and gait pattern to identify the structural causes of your pain and lack of motion. We will then teach you gentle stretching and strengthening exercises that will begin to allow you the freedom to move in a pain-free and efficient manner. These exercises can easily be done in the comfort of your own home without the aid of a therapist.

Achieving functional fitness will empower you to:

• Relieve your own pain
• Enjoy freer movement
• Do the activities that you enjoy
• Stand tall and strong
• Feel more energetic
• Tone and strengthen your body

Functional Fitness Training utilizing the Egoscue Method works for people of all ages and activity levels. It is an excellent foundation for all other forms of exercise and it supports many other therapies e.g., massage therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture, naturopathy and allopathic medicine.
