The Egoscue Method defines the laws of physical health utilizing custom-designed therapies to reintroduces the laws that will return the body to its natural state of health -- free from pain and limitations.
"All of the steps in this ten-stop process are personalized to the specific needs of each participant. There are no manipulations or artificial simulations. The dynamic program becomes a process of transformation in harmony with the body's changes as the laws are applied and reestablished.
This personalized program usually extends to eight weeks with a follow-up for reinforcement or the development of a maintenance program.
The Three Forces
1. The Force of Movement
In order to maintain optimal overall health and keep our vital physiological systems functional, we need to have consistent movement in our daily routine. If we don't, we suffer from motion starvation and our bodies will begin to reflect the dysfunctions that are being created -- pain, illness, and structural defects. Motion is a renewable resource that must be replenished constantly and responsibly.
2. The Force of Psychology
How we view our bodies and the beliefs we have about the body's complexity and capabilities will either result in a fully functioning body moving with easy fluidity or one without structural support, little energy, and far less physical ability and agility. Therefore, we need to take responsibility and create a lifestyle that includes proper exercise. In turn, we'll be able to do whatever we choose knowing that our bodies will be able to support us.
3. The Force of Stimulus
The body requires constant input i order to maintain its systems and functionality, and to continue to replenish itself from the cells up. Otherwise, the body becomes stagnant, we become lethargic, intellectually lazy, and unable to respond to the demands of our daily lives with efficiency and elegance. a body that is stimulated is alive, energetic, and continually growing."
