#hipflexors #flexibility is crucial for your #spinehealth Flexible hips allow sufficient hip extension during #gait #walking If your hips are tight they are in flexion during movement and the body is compensating by compressing the lumbar spine. Further spinal compression is caused by tightness in vertical chains. #spiralstabilization can reverse the process and regenerate the spine by stretching the spine with a natural upwards force created by spiral chains during our exercises. #backpain #lowbackpain #discherniation #scoliosis are all reduced during treatment when the range of motion in the hips increases. We measure clients hip flexibility to track their progress. Have you stretched your hip flexors today? 🤸🏼‍♂️🤸🏼‍♂️ . . . . #SpiralStabilizationUK #treatthecausenotthesymptoms #movewell #stretchdaily #trackprogress #bodymobility #hipmobilityexercises #hipmobility #functionalexercise #functionaltraining #spinaltraction #spinaldecompression #decompressiontherapy #intervertebraldiscs

Another great event and second year of #feetfasciafunction2019 @evolution101uk Lots of learning and education from fascinating presentations by Doctor Matt Wilkinson @paul_edmondson_mta_gi from @grayinstituteofficial @function.first @dremilydpm and her @naboso_barefoot_technology plus movement with @animalflowofficial and @rich_scrivener Thank you @powell10steve @adamdanielmba @born_to_walk for organising such an awesome day. #barefoot #fascialrelease #movementtherapy #conferencedays #movementislife #functionaltraining #exercisescience #humananatomy #proprioceptiontraining #musclechains #bodystability #SpiralStabilizationUK

I always take postural images of my clients. It’s important for treatment to assess #muscleimbalances within the body and to be able to do #beforeandafter images later. It’s necessary for #motivation tracking their progress and #results When seeing your #spirastabilization #therapist bring with you a report from your specialist, #MRI or #Xray if you have one. Thank you @spiral.stabilization and @michael.magyar.jr for the image that is from our #scoliosis book. #SpiralStabilizationUK #treatthecausenotthesymptoms #backpainexercises #backpaintherapy #correctposture #improveposture #functionaltraining #gaittrainingexercise #improvelifestyle #livepainfree #spinaldisorders #spinerehab #sportsandrehab #correctiveexercise

Here are a few videos for a better understanding of #spiralstabilization and the function of vertical and spiral #musclechains Video 1 Vertical muscle chains #erectorspinae #hipflexors #hamstrings .... are usually tight and cause compression within the body, spine and joints. They are static chains and are supposed to stabilise the body at rest. Due to too much tightness and joints being in flexion the body cannot function correctly in movement using spiral chains. Stabilisation of #gait #running #walking through vertical chains will cause more compression. Video 2 The compression within the body is eliminated by using spiral chains in movement. Spiral chains #glutes #obliques #core #interscapularmuscles are usually weak and need strengthening. Contraction within the spiral chains narrows the waist and creates natural #decompression of the spine. Video 3 The effect on the spine is decompression/traction, centralisation especially with scoliosis and stabilisation through spiral chains. Natural stretching of the spine upwards relieves pressure on the intervertebral discs. Video 4 Spiral Stabilization exercises will eliminate muscle imbalance within the body by strengthening weakness and stretching tightness within each exercise. We always treat the body as a whole and the entire movement apparatus #reciprocalinhibition ensures active relaxation of vertical chains while spiral chains are contracted. #treatthecausenotthesymptoms #SpiralStabilizationUK
