What is Restorative Exercise?
I am so glad you asked! But first, consider that we have more choices today than in any time in history about how and when to use our body. We can stand, sit, run, walk, or just stay in bed and still have all of our basic needs met. How then, do we end up with bodies that feel so uncomfortable to live in? Well, our bodies need aligned whole-body movement to thrive!
Restorative Exercise is a movement system based on the sciences of engineering, mathematics, and physics that seeks to restore the original factory settings to your human “machine.” The original design of your machine is brilliant, and when used and maintained properly, will give you decades of pain-free enjoyment. All the tissues of your body will become healthier and age more slowly when you practice optimally aligned whole-body movements.
Restorative Exercise is distinct from physical fitness and traditional exercise in that it is based on our biological need to have the whole body in a state of good health, rather than training specific muscles groups for performance or "fitness." Ill health is occurring because we no longer use our machine the way it was intended. As a result, degeneration and disease are occurring at unprecedented rates, and have come to be regarded as a “normal” part of aging. Diseases of affluence and overuse injuries manifest in a broad range of forms, including inwardly manifest disease and outwardly manifest disease. Inwardly manifest disease can be expressed as cardiovascular disease, chronic pain (e.g. back pain), pelvic floor disorder, the need for temporary or permanent joint immobilization (e.g. hip replacement, spinal fusion), osteoarthritis, and more. Externally manifest disease such as fallen arches and bunions are also indications of misalignment of the body's segments.
Restorative Exercise uses objective markers to asses and design movement based prescriptions that will increase your understanding of your body and your sense of self-empowerment immediately. Restorative Exercise will help you to restore your ability to move the way you were born to, and it is never too late! You can improve alignment and begin to see progress at any age. The beauty of Restorative Exercise is that the movement prescriptions are both the key to assess where you are in relationship to where you should be and the tool to regain your ability to move pain-free in your body. This means you will always go home knowing exactly what you need to do between sessions to thrive because you will have already practiced. Why settle for simply being “not dead yet” when you can be vitally alive, pain-free, and thriving?

To help me fund the completion of my training in this new movement format, I am pre-selling three-session packages at $100.00 each. During these sessions I will introduce you to basic standing and sitting alignment for better spine and pelvic floor health, the basics of natural gait, and a third session to cover a body area of your choice. I will need to complete my training in early March before I begin to teach, but I expect to be scheduling these appointments no later than April of 2012.
Please note these are NOT mobile training sessions, and will require you to travel to my location in Bristow, VA. Sessions are available during normal operating hours. Click here to see current hours. One package per person. May buy additional as gifts. Although pre-sale packages are available to purchase for a limited time, they do not expire.
