The
Egoscue Method® is a process designed to help
you rediscover, restore and return your body to its original pain free
blueprint without the use of drugs, surgery and/or manipulation. This
puts the control of your health back into your hands rather than
creating dependence on a system. The Egoscue Method® provides
personalized exercises that retrain muscles, realign posture, and reduce
pain.
Chris Kussoff, Director of our local Orange
County Egoscue Clinic, created a short Aikido
Warmup for us. It takes about 7 minutes
and is designed to put the body into balance to prepare for an aikido
workout. We have also found it very helpful for fixing "travel
back" after hauling luggage and sitting on long flights. Enjoy!
The
Egoscue Method® Disclaimer
Ours is a
highly litigious society. Which means, in plain English, we like to sue
each other, blame each other, transfer responsibility to others.
Since, as
you'll see, responsibility is a continuing theme of this program, the
space which is usually reserved for what lawyers refer to as the
"disclaimer" is being used to make an additional and, I
believe, more important point.
You've
seen the words many times: "The following material is not intended
as a substitute for the advice of a physician. The reader should consult
a physician before embarking on this or any health program..." ---
or words to that effect. The all-purpose liability firebreak.
Disclaimers
are a legal necessity, but they are a cop-out. This material is no
substitute for the participant taking responsibility for his or her own
health. Therefore, I have an important recommendation to make: If you
really need a disclaimer, close this program and put it aside unused.
I hope
you don't --- because what I have to offer in the program will change
your life.
