Our Approach To Recovery
The Three Pillars
We assess each patient based upon these three foundational pillars introduced by the Institute of Physical Art. We believe not one system in the body works alone.
Mechanical
For optimal movement, all the tissues in your body—such as joints, soft tissues, fascia, organs, and neurovascular structures—need a certain level of "springiness" at their end range of motion. When these tissues are restricted in their ability to stretch, compress, or fold, it can lead to compensations in other areas, resulting in inefficient movement patterns and potential pain
Neuromuscular Efficiency
Efficient neuromuscular function requires proper muscle activation, strength, and endurance. Often, the inability to improve strength and endurance is due to poor muscle initiation. The focus is on ensuring that all functional movements start with proper core activation.
Motor Control
Motor control is the ability to transition into, out of, and maintain functional positions. In essence, it’s what enables you to move efficiently throughout your daily activities. Training in motor control can cover everything from sleep posture and sitting/standing alignment to high-performance movement. While optimal movement efficiency relies on mastering the first three pillars, motor control training typically starts right from the beginning
