Secondary mechanical patterns and
joint level
restrictions causing spinal and/or extremity stress have been our focus
in
work with arthritic conditions. Analysis and
corrective work to increase the elasticity of structures associated
with an articular restriction combined with the correction of postural
alignment patterns that contribute to the mechanism of joint stress
have resulted in immediate positive progressive changes.
Our most dramatic cases involving
clients with acute rheumatoid arthritic conditions has been associated
with the analysis and correction of spinal and extremity restrictions
that were associated with a systemic stress pattern that appeared to
limit the effectiveness of the drug treatment regimen. The
capacity to decrease the overall systemic stress, in combination with
an appropriate the drug treatment regimen, has proved to be a
significant factor associated with a clients capacity to enter into
state of remission.
Note: All cases involved cross
applications of biomechanical analysis, correction and retraining
methods that were originally developed to enhance joint range of
motion, flexibility and performance of the elite dancer and
international athlete. We seek the participation and involvement of the
medical community with both the assessment of potential cases that may
benefit from our research as well as active participation throughout
the course of consultations.
