Practiced sprints today. My stride, rotation, and leg pump feel differently than a year and half ago when i filmed some gait footage of me running on a tradmill. I would not even call that running today.
All thanks to for developing the skills for me to understand and correct my body mechanics to the best of my abilities.
Still so much to achieve but the very fact that I am running with zero pain, zero coughing, and feeling my body move through space is nothing short of a miracle in my eyes. I’d thought I’d never run again. Never say never.

One thing I absolutely love about being an entrepreneur is the freedom to wear whatever I want any day of the week. Everything in your aura is a projection of you and carries its own energy, whether good or bad. How you dress can inspire confidence or weigh you down in doubt!
And people can see and feel that!

Some clients are so top-tier that they remake the table and leave a check on it after their sessions. Mad respect but never do l anticipate others to do this after a massage 🙃Love my clients and their ways to show their appreciation. Thanks for your trust.

Repost from Functional Patterns

Scoliosis isn't just a spinal issue-it's a full-body imbalance.

When tension in the body is unevenly distributed, what appears to be structural misalignment is often a breakdown in tensegrity. The fascia, which connects everything, becomes dehydrated and restricted, leading to compensations that further lock dysfunctional patterns into place.

Scoliosis amplifies these dysfunctions by creating excessive tension on one side of the body, forcing compensations that alter your movement mechanics and restrict mobility.

Over time, this leads to chronic pain, asymmetrical loading, and inefficient movement patterns that traditional approaches fail to address.

The key to restoring function starts with rehydrating the fascia through targeted myofascial release, followed by proper movement to reinforce structural integrity— because isolating the spine won't fix a full-body problem.

Take a look!!

I’VE NEVER BEEN MORE EXCITED ABOUT MOVEMENT THERAPY, EXERCISING, AND BECOMING MORE PAIN FREE AS I HAVE WITH DOING THE TRAINING. Just wow!
Literal answers to my prayers.

Before you engage in any sagittal, linear, or dynamic movement it's essential to first check your standing posture. Why? Because the foundation of every movement you perform stems from how you stand. If your posture is
compromised, you're not only risking injury but also reinforcing existing dysfunctions in your body.

🏃🏼‍♀️Alignment Sets the Stage for Movement

Your body is a kinetic chain, and proper alignment ensures that each link in that chain functions optimally.

🏃🏼‍♀️Posture Affects Joint Mechanics

When standing with proper alignment, the joints (especially the spine, hips, and knees) are aligned in a way that maximizes their efficiency and range of motion.
Misalignment, on the other hand, forces certain joints to take on more load than they're designed for, leading to wear and tear over time.

🏃🏼‍♀️You're Reinforcing Dysfunction

If your posture is poor when you stand, you're essentially "pre-programming" your body to move inefficiently. Even before you start running, squatting, or jumping, poor standing posture means you're already catering to your body's dysfunctions.

🏃🏼‍♀️Optimal Posture Prepares Your Body for Movement

Having an adequate standing posture creates the ideal environment for dynamic movement. It allows your muscles to be activated in the right sequence, with the right amount of force.

Your body moves best when it's aligned, and alignment starts with standing tall.
Neglecting this step doesn't just set you up for poor movement-it reinforces dysfunctional patterns that can linger, causing pain and limiting progress.
