Digging Deeper into the CIA

You must understand that there is more than one path to the top of the mountain.

  Like you, at the Center of Intrinsic Alignment, we value results.  Prehabilitative, where you're taking a proactive stance on your health, or Rehabilitative, like after an injury or even surgery, treatment methods should not be 'ONE size fits ALL'.  We firmly believe that there is no one 'all healing' technique and that the tools you carry each play their part to complete the project at hand.  

  Pain Management doesn't mean that You never get pain again, it means when you have pain, you get out of pain with a few simple exercises.  The CIA uses the 2-ARM approach, Assessment Release Motivation / Awareness Re-education Movement plan.  A combination of neuromuscular soft tissue therapy, neurologic control re-education, and specific motor control exercise using the most evidence supported techniques gets superior results!    

  Every Patient has their unique story along with their unique injury, and requires a unique plan of restoration.  We adhere to the fundamentals of the mechanics of the body, principles of brain-based optimal movement, and allowing the technique to develop as needed.

  Alongside injury specific manual therapy, we also offer Postural Corrective Treatments, Postural Education, Corrective Exercises, Weight Loss & Management, as well as Personal & Performance Training.  After all, your posture is how your body is aligned from the inside.  Chronic holding patterns lead to chronic pain, and often small Myoskeletal postural corrections can have a dynamic effect on surrounding and supportive structures.  Reinforce those small changes with specific neuromuscular education, increasing neural drive to specific (often underutilized) muscles and now you've learned a new, more functional, pattern of movement creating less pain.  Weight has a compounding effect on your body and is a leading cause of imbalances and compensations.  Please visit the Crew to learn more about each Agent at the CIA.
