WHAT IS THE EGOSCUE METHOD

Founded by Pete Egoscue in the 1970s, the Egoscue Method is a Postural Therapy program which uses a series of gentle stretches and exercises to return balance and symmetry to the body. Designed to treat musculoskeletal pain without drugs, surgery, or manipulation, the Egoscue Method brings ones skeleton into proper alignment restoring the body back to its’ designed posture. When your body loses its’ designed posture, muscles have moved your bones into a dysfunctional position which doesn’t allow your body to move effectively. The Egoscue Method reeducates and reminds your muscles how they need to function in order to maintain proper alignment.
