After 26 years at the Carney Hospital, I have decided to downsize. I will be working just one day a week at Myotech Combined Therapies, 515 Providence Highway, Dedham, Mass. 02026. Right now I am scheduling for Tuesday. I am still working every Thursday at the Osher Clinical Center at the Brigham Hospital
Core Movement Integration DVD
TheĀ Core Movement Integration DVD containsĀ 23 sequenced movements with Arthur Madore, LMT as the model and narrator.
This DVD covers the basic movement patterns that underlie most activities of daily life.
- Comfortable sitting
- Standing with least strain
- Sit to stand using your whole body
- 11 different deconstructions of the walking movement from supine to sitting to standing. You get to focus on one part at a time.
- Getting out of the bed easily.
- Reaching with spinal support
- Turning connecting legs to head.
The idea behind this DVD came to me because so many people had difficulty remembering the details of Core Movement Integration. It is intended for people who have had a session with Arthur and want to better remember the nuances of good, comfortable movement. It is also a good introduction to whole body movement. The language is clear and simple.
DVD is $35 plus Shipping and Handling.
Postural Alignment
A major goal of Muscular Therapy is to restore your natural posture. This allows the muscles of the neck, shoulders and lower back to be relaxed while the skeleton supports the body. This is achieved by releasing the contracted muscles that pull you out of a balanced alignment.
