Has this ever happened to you? 

I "just" bent over and...

I "just" reached u​p and...

I "just" moved...

Do you "LIVE" with Daily Pain and Tension. 

Have you thought, "This pain is just my new "normal" and I need to "deal with it"? I am just getting old..."

STOP.    BREATHE.

You're not broken, you're programmed. You are wired for safety… not necessarily success. We were not built for repetitive movements in the gym or to be sedentary for 18 hours a day. While it may sound like your 'comfort zone' is this soft, cushy space. The truth is that your comfort zone is more about familiarity and repetition. It is your body’s way to physiologically conserve energy and keep you safe…. Not necessarily happy or fulfilled.

The challenge is, most people end up tolerating a lot of what they don’t want which can lead to chronic stress and pain.

RELAX, WE COME TO YOU.

Let's be Honest. We Spend the majority of our time sitting: Eating, Driving, Lounging, School and Office! Sitting!

Sitting:

• Encourages poor posture by tightening the front body and the over-stretching/weakening of muscles in the back body. Causing Trigger points that can lead to pain.
• Sitting at your desk shortens your hip flexors putting the pelvis off balance, leading to low back pain and compensation in the upper torso.
• Lower-leg musculature becomes inactive. This causes less-than-ideal circulation, which leads to congested tissues and reduced performance.
• Lack of elbow support leaves the elbows floating which cause your shoulder elevators to shorten and splint to conserver energy and reduce fatigue.
• Your spine is designed to balance and evenly distribute the weight of your skull. Every one degree your head leans forward adds 10 pounds that your back muscles have to try and counterbalance in their weakened state.

Like an algorithm your brain learns overtime. This adapted posture doesn't just go away when you stand up. When you go to do your other non-sitting activities with your misaligned programming, those activities will also be originating from a place of unconscious imbalance and misleading pain alarms. This is a big reason why you may have not had the success you were hoping to achieve in previous attempts to reduce pain and increase mobility or even saw the opposite.

Remind your body what its built for.

When your mind and your body are working together, great things can happen. ROOT OF MOBILITY is a program to prepare your body for how capable you truly are. Being able to recognize common stress symptoms can help you manage them. Stress that's left unchecked can contribute to many health problems, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity and diabetes. Studies have shown that over 80% of pain complaints presented at clinics are likely to be caused by myofascial trigger points rather than actual tissue damage. Unfortunately, most tend to interpret pain as a symptom of an injury, leading to ineffective, side-effect-laden treatment approaches like drugs, steroid injections and surgery.

EACH INDIVIDUAL’S WILLINGNESS TO TAKE ACTION TO SUSTAIN AND IMPROVE HIS OR HER OWN ENERGY PRODUCES A POWERFUL INFLUENCE THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO AFFECT HEALING THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY AND EVEN THE WORLD.
