In today’s in-service, we worked on manual treatment of the stomach.

When the stomach becomes elevated, restricted, or inflamed, it can contribute to symptoms such as reflux, nausea, headaches, dizziness, or even back pain. These symptoms often show up far from the source, making them easy to overlook.

Gentle manual release of the stomach, surrounding fascia, and the nearby rib cage and diaphragm can help reduce tension, ease symptoms, improve breathing mechanics, and calm the nervous system. Subtle work here can have a powerful whole-body effect.

💬 Experiencing reflux, tension, or unexplained symptoms that haven’t fully resolved? DM us or call our clinic to schedule your FREE 15-minute discovery call and learn how a whole-body approach may help you feel better.

At Equilibrium, the transition from quadruped to downward dog—and the ability to maintain proper alignment in the downward dog position—is a movement test we frequently use for patients with neck and upper-trap pain.

This test provides valuable insight into:
• available range of motion
• areas where stability is compromised
• movement strategies and compensations
• potential contributors to symptoms

Improving trunk and shoulder girdle stability, as well as the ability to dissociate the arms from the trunk, is crucial for long-term neck and shoulder health. If you’re experiencing neck pain or upper-trap discomfort, these limitations may be part of the underlying cause.

Different strategies your body uses during a simple movement like rolling can sometimes lead to pain, especially during everyday activities (ADLs). Therapists look for the most efficient strategy—the one that keeps your body aligned, reduces strain, and allows your muscles to work together, not against each other.

A flexion strategy, such as gently drawing your knees in and engaging your stomach muscles, often makes rolling feel smoother and less painful. In contrast, an extension strategy—arching the back or leading with the head—can place extra stress on sensitive areas.

Techniques such as PNF mass-flexion patterns help activate the core and trunk muscles so the body moves as a coordinated unit. With improved core engagement and trunk stability, rolling becomes smoother, safer, and more controlled, making daily tasks easier and reducing the risk of pain during normal activities.

“Two World-Class Prague Instructors. Two Elite Courses. One City.”

We’re bringing in two of the Prague School’s respected and sought-after instructors —Zuzana Suzan, MPT and Julia Demekova, MPT — to teach DNS A and DNS C at Hunter PT.

Their depth of clinical reasoning, precision in movement analysis, and clarity in teaching are unmatched. Clinicians across the world travel to study under them — and now you have the chance to learn directly from them here.

Whether you’re beginning your DNS journey or ready to advance into complex protocols, these courses will elevate your understanding of stabilization, breathing, developmental kinesiology, and functional motor control at the deepest level.

This isn’t just CE.
This is the kind of training that transforms your practice.

📘 DNS A — March 13–15, 2026

Instructor: Zuzana Suzan, MPT
• Learn the foundational lens of developmental kinesiology
• Understand ideal stabilization strategies
• Refine your assessment of respiration & global movement patterns

📗 DNS C — April 17–19, 2026

Instructor: Julia Demekova, MPT
• Master advanced DNS assessments
• Integrate pelvic girdle, shoulder girdle & spinal stabilization
• Apply complex DNS protocols for higher-level clinical presentations

Both courses have limited seats and historically fill quickly — especially with instructors of this caliber.

If DNS is part of your long-term clinical path, this is the moment to secure your spot.

Equilibrium and EQ Rise warmly invite you to join us for a FREE virtual workshop: “Give Your Belly a Break – How Relaxing Your Abdomen Restores Your Core!” presented by Dominica Bianconi, PT, DPT.

So many of us go through the day holding in our stomachs without realizing the stress it puts on the body. Whether it’s posture habits, tight clothing, chronic stress, or years of being told to “pull your belly in,” this constant tension can actually weaken your core, disrupt breathing, and contribute to low back/neck pain, pelvic floor issues, digestive discomfort, fatigue, poor posture, and more.

In this FREE virtual workshop, Dominica Bianconi, DPT, will break down what your core truly needs to function well — and why “tightening” is often the exact opposite of what restores long-term stability.

Once registered, you’ll receive a Zoom link during the week of the event.

Seats are limited — reserve your spot today.
Registration closes Wednesday, December 17th!

We look forward to seeing you there!

In this video, Sang is treating David’s heart using a gentle technique that targets the pericardial attachments—the connective tissues that help guide how the heart and rib cage move together.

Improving the ability of these structures to glide and move freely supports better breathing mechanics, improved posture, more efficient movement, and reduces the load that excess tension can place on the heart and surrounding tissues. Subtle changes here can have a meaningful impact on overall comfort and function.

💬 Curious how manual therapy techniques like this can improve your breathing, posture, or movement efficiency? DM us or call our clinic to schedule your FREE 15-minute discovery call and learn how this approach may help you feel and move better.

Glute tightness can contribute to low-back, hip, or even knee pain because the glute muscles help stabilize the pelvis and support healthy movement patterns. When these muscles become stiff or underactive, nearby areas often compensate, leading to discomfort with standing, walking, bending, or sitting for long periods.

A helpful way to address this is through active stretching, which adds gentle muscle engagement to retrain how the glutes work during movement. Unlike passive stretching, where you simply hold a position, active stretching uses light contractions of the glutes or hip muscles to improve stability and control—making tightness less likely to return.

The pigeon pose is a popular stretch for the glutes and deep hip rotators. When performed with a DNS (Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization) approach, the goal isn’t just to hold the shape, but to breathe into the posture, maintain trunk stability, and gently activate the hip muscles. This teaches the body a more efficient movement pattern.

This blend of relaxation, breathing, and controlled activation helps patients feel both more mobile and better supported—making daily activities more comfortable.

💬 Experiencing hip tightness, lower-back strain, or discomfort with daily movement? DM us or call our clinic to schedule your FREE 15-minute discovery call and learn how we can help restore your mobility and stability.

In Good Energy: The Surprising Connection Between Metabolism and Limitless Health, Dr. Casey Means highlights how frequent muscle activation can change our body’s physiology and energy at the cellular level.

For our patients—especially those with sedentary jobs—we often recommend simple hourly movement breaks: a quick walk, stretch, or a few squats. Done consistently, these small actions can have a big impact on how you feel, move, and function throughout the day.

💬 Want help building realistic movement habits into your workday or routine? DM us or call our clinic to schedule your FREE 15-minute discovery call and learn how we can create a plan tailored to you.

Core muscles help regulate the body’s internal pressure system and work best when the body is in optimal alignment. While many people associate core training with leg and lower-trunk movements, effective core activation also depends on coordinated engagement of the upper trunk and arms.

Improving this upper-trunk integration supports better mobility and stability in the neck and shoulders, while also enhancing function in the lower back, pelvis, and legs.

If you have difficulty sensing proper core activation, or if you struggle with shoulder tightness, poor posture, or symptoms in the neck or lower back, DM us or call our clinic to schedule your FREE 15-minute discovery call.

Dysfunction in the upper cervical spine can lead to symptoms like headaches, dizziness, vertigo, eye strain, light sensitivity, poor focus, and neck pain.

In this week’s in-service, we practiced a gentle upper cervical distraction technique to create more space between the top vertebrae and the base of the skull. This approach helps ease tension, improve mobility, and provide meaningful symptom relief for patients dealing with upper cervical-related issues.

💬 Experiencing headaches, dizziness, or neck tension that hasn’t improved? DM us or call our clinic to schedule your FREE 15-minute discovery call and learn how targeted upper cervical treatment can help you feel better and move more comfortably.

In the posterior–anterior posture pattern described in the Saliba Postural Classification System from the Institute of Physical Art, the body develops an imbalance between the front and back that often leads to stiffness or restricted movement at the thoracolumbar (TL) junction — where the mid-back meets the lower back.

When this area loses mobility, the body begins to compensate.
🔹 The lower back muscles become overactive and tight, causing discomfort and fatigue.
🔹 The thoracic spine and rib cage grow less mobile, limiting the diaphragm and creating shallow, inefficient breathing.
🔹 The upper body may shift into rounded shoulders and forward head posture, increasing tension through the neck, shoulders, and upper back — sometimes contributing to neck pain and headaches.

This creates a chain reaction where restricted motion at the TL junction affects posture, breathing patterns, muscle balance, and overall movement efficiency.

Restoring mobility and control through postural retraining, breathing exercises, and core stabilization can help relieve strain, improve alignment, and reduce pain throughout the spine.

💬 Want to understand how your posture and breathing may be affecting your pain or movement? DM us or call our clinic to schedule your FREE 15-minute discovery call and learn how we can help you restore balance and move with ease.
