Is working from home killing your back?
Working remotely has made life feel weird and bodies feel awful. Your usual office setup is replaced with you parked for hours on an uncomfortable chair in a makeshift office. After your back and neck have staged a painful revolt against you, there's no choice but to move somewhere more comfy. You go from one place to another ending with the sofa which completes the undoing of your spine. Ouch!
Sound familiar?
I've heard renditions of this statement countless times: "I'm so nervous because I feel like if I make one tiny move in the wrong direction my spine will come apart." Living this way makes you feel fragile and out of shape. Let's work together to get the healthy you back again!
I have a solution that works without gimmicks or gadgets.

Get a posture check-up to reveal problem areas.
Don't believe the painful pandemic version of you is here to stay.
In case you're wondering, posture braces don't work. In fact, some worsen slouching. So what's the solution?
Don't get squirmy thinking I'll suggest you buy a $1000 Herman Miller office chair or a fancy-schmancy desk. I'll start by taking a look at your standing and work station posture.
You'll send three specific pics. I'll analyze the images to find imbalances. Then we'll make some tweaks to your work area which could include things such as changing how you sit or modifying your computer setup. This will make a big difference in the way you feel.

Fix bad posture with a posture exam plus a stretching & exercise program.
When you catch yourself hunching over you're immediately triggered into the posture forced on you as a kid: Head up, chest out, shoulders back!
And guess what? It doesn't work. You can do a fake fix for a few minutes, but you'll quickly fall back into your old, slouchy way. Good posture can't be forced. Bad posture comes from two things - overly tight muscles and ones that have been pulled for such a long time they've become weak. Until muscle imbalance is addressed your posture can't improve.
A posture exam with an exercise plan gives you exactly what you need - specific stretches to relax tight muscles and exercises to make you strong again.
You know what's awesome about having great posture? You'll feel younger and stronger. You'll appear happier and more confident to others. You'll be healthier too, because good posture keeps pressure off bones and organs such as your heart and lungs.

Remember how it was when we were kids? We lived to play outdoors. Kids today are obsessed with tech and spend their lives staring at screens. Before the pandemic began they had a break from devices while at school, and it's been hijacked by remote-learning.
And it doesn't matter which kind of kid you have: artists, gamers, athletes, musicians, computer gurus and amazing students who love learning...Their posture is similar because of tech obsession. Their young bodies are already showing signs of breakdown.
Does your child continually complain of muscle pain, back aches and headaches? Do they stand and sit like some hunched-over, fragile people you know?
When parents schedule their child's appointment they say, "Please talk to them about how awful their posture is." I understand why parents need my help. Your kid slouches, you remind them to stop, and they automatically tune you out. The cycle continues day by day, and you sound like a broken record. You know how it is - sometimes the message has to be delivered by someone other than parents. That's where I come in.
My approach with kids is friendly and easy-going. It's actually quite rewarding to work with young people. One reason for this is because their bodies are resilient. They heal quickly, and they feel relief much sooner than adults do. They learn what works and are excited when they see how making a bunch of small tweaks can cause lasting benefits.
If you'd like your child to get relief so they'll show up in the world as being vibrant, healthy and confident, I'm happy to guide the way.

Here's how to get started:
- Schedule an appointment.
- Take three pictures and text them to me (I'll give you details). Pictures can be of your child sitting at their computer or while gaming.
- Text me the pics, and I'll complete the analysis.
- Accompany your child to my office where I'll go over results. Easy!
