PUSH Philosophy and Tips
1.) Always treat
both sides of the
body even if there is
no pain or tension.
2.) Never treat
longer than 5 min. On
each side.
3.) If sore from
previous treatment
wait a day before
treating yourself
4.) Only treat 2X to
3X per day.
5.) Be aware of your
posture! Are you
putting tension in
your muscles? Are
you relaxed and
sinking your tail
bone?
Tips for self
treatment:
We believe that many common forms of pain today originate from
chronic, repetitive patterns people develop over a lifetime. The
standing and sitting up "straight" postures that were taught to
most of us as children and reinforced throughout our lifetimes
create constant tension in the body and compression on our
joints. Over time this joint tension can wear down knees, hips,
backs, necks and shoulders.
Many forms of therapy today stress strengthening and stretching
to treat these symptoms. Many exercises simply reinforce the old
patterns that caused the problem in the first place. We at PUSH
believe in replacing the old patterns with a properly aligned and
mobile body, strong and supple muscles, and a well aligned core.
Chronic symptoms can disappear forever and athletes can
perform at a much higher level with less stress to their bodies.
Our patients are treated using Soft Pressure Stimulation to get
fast results and create long-term change to muscle tone. We
teach self-treatment techniques to empower patients to treat
their own symptoms and help prevent problems from recurring.
Patients learn PUSH Mobility training to help replace old, rigid
patterns with new, strong and mobile patterns.
We believe it is vital to get beyond treating superficial symptoms.
Our goal is to teach each patient how his or her problem
developed, eliminate the source of the problem, teach new and
efficient ways to use the body, and eliminate pain and chronic
tension permanently.
