Flow Movement Therapy

Julia came to me through the recommendation of another therapist. She had toe pain that wasn’t going away.

Within two sessions the toe pain was gone and we got to work on what else was contributing to the pattern.

Julia committed to the process, dove in with her curiosity and was diligent with her homework.

She has now graduated from my process of restoring her movements and is in my custom strength program.

Julia’s results are typical of my clients and comes from daily commitment to overriding longstanding habits that contribute to patterns we aren’t aware of.

My online client, Rebecca, sent me a lovely message about her progress.

She came to me with profound bunions and her second toes were sticking up in the air. She worried her next step would be surgery to fix her bunions and pin her toes flat.

We got to work re-educating her feet so that every part of them is moving properly and coordinated with every other part of her foot.

She was diligent with her homework and switched to shoes that helped her body work with her feet well.

Yes, online works otherwise I wouldn’t offer it.

It worked for Rebecca’s very altered feet. It will work for yours.

All of my online work is totally secure and private. I’d be happy to share the security policy of the software I use.

I hear it all the time:
‘I’ve tried everything but nothing has worked this quickly’
‘I finally understand what’s going on and why’
‘You have finally given me hope’
‘Most other people run out of things to try on me’

The difference?
🌟I look at every aspect of how your body is creating and managing your compensations.
🌟I don’t just give generic exercises. I help you find and feel what the exercise should feel like in fine detail.
🌟I find the missing details other people haven’t chosen to specialize in.

In short, I get very detailed, very specific to you, and support you to master those changes between visits.

That’s why clients see change in weeks, not years.

It’s not for everyone. But for those who are motivated and want a new way of looking at what’s going on, they tell everyone about my work.

If that’s you, I’d love to meet you. Comment ‘help’ below.

Posture isn’t something you ‘do’.

Posture is the outcome of billions of interconnected parts in your body resulting in an outcome.

Your posture is determined by:
-our natural asymmetry and how your brain navigates that
-how you breathe (airway is critical)
-your history of injuries or patterns you’ve learned (eg sports, job, people’s comments on your body)
-how your family members stood or walked (we copy people we look up to)

Changing all of that can be done momentarily by making your body stand differently. But that rarely sticks, it often creates new issues and most importantly it doesn’t address WHY you have your posture.

If you’ve tried all the posture cues, strengthening exercises and it’s not getting better, you need someone who can look ‘under the hood’.

I’d love to help. Comment ‘start’ below and I’ll reach out about the first step.

This goes nicely with my post today about how minimal shoe enthusiasts get caught up in the 'natural is better' logical fallacy.

You’ve probably heard that ‘traditional shoes are bad for you’ because of excessive support, cushioning, heel rise, and narrow toe box. And that ‘minimal shoes’ are better because they are ‘natural’.

I was squarely in the minimal shoes camp, until I decided to let my own testing and results speak for themselves.

Here’s the problem:
🧐 the ‘appeal to nature’ logical fallacy thag just because something is natural makes it better.
📊 if you’re not testing range of motion, stability, improved feedback to your nervous system and gait quality then you’re just guessing and hoping.
🌎Our floors aren’t natural either. Your brain sees flat level floors as a threat (‘what the heck kind of planet have we landed on!?’) and minimal shoes are taking away even more of the feedback that our brains wish they’d get. Hello plantar fasciitis and flat feet.

The truth? I’ve never met someone come though my door ready for minimal shoes.

If you’re not testing plan to change what shoes you wear make sure you:
✅test range of motion and restrictions throughout your body with each shoe option
✅ let your body, not online trends, tell you what works

Not sure how to test? That’s what I do all day. Let me guide you. Comment ‘feet’ below and I’ll reach out.

If ‘just get stronger’ worked, nobody would still be in pain.

But here’s what I see:
👉🏻Hamstring curls with an extended spine
👉🏻Lat pull downs when the lats are already overworking
👉🏻Stairmaster with strong bias to one leg or ribcage
👉🏻Muscles used to hold your imbalances getting even stronger at holding you imbalanced

❌you can’t out-strength poor alignment
❌You can’t fix an airflow and nervous system issue with more reps

That’s why my clients don’t jump into gym programs until they’ve demonstrated they can override their default patterns and maintain their ability to access each part of their body when challenged.

Then? We train smarter so strength is built where it’s supposed to be.

A quote from the course this past weekend ‘what moves a human body? Muscles and air’

It seemed hard to believe for my the first time I took a PRI course but it really hits home when you finally are able to put air into all areas of the ribcage.

And your shoulder ranges get better
Your neck becomes freer
Your hips unlock
You are stable on each foot

If you’re going after chin tucks, banded Ts and As, ‘strengthening your core’ you may be missing the crucial aspect of posture and gait: how well you inhale and exhale.

Got plantar fasciitis? My brilliant colleague, Megan, explains how it is partly a foot issue but it's actually a whole body issue. Find a practitioner who can actually help your feet move how they are supposed to AND get the remainder of your body moving how its supposed to. Your whole body will thank you.

I get lots of clients coming to me after being given biomechanics-focus exercises for their various issues.

When I see them doing the exercises I can tell they are either reinforcing their own patterns they are unaware of or not giving their body the positional environment it needs to sort out the issue.

I’ve also been down the road of focusing on biomechanics without considering the role of the senses. It got me only so far.

Now this is why I focus on places others haven’t looked:
✅how you breathe and where the airflow goes in those breaths
✅how you inhale AND how you exhale
✅whether the way your teeth come together is pulling you into a compensation
✅whether your vision or glasses are reinforcing your compensation
✅can your feet ACTUALLY properly pronate and supinate
✅could you be in better footwear that helps your brain sort out everything I am teaching it to do?

From what my clients are telling me, they aren’t getting this kind of assessment from the practitioners they’ve been going to.

And for some people, this is the missing piece.
