Why do we treat your ENTIRE body?

Emily Barker • Apr 19, 2022

Have you ever wondered “my knees hurt -- what leg exercises can I do to fix my knee pain? Why does physical therapy not provide me immediate and lasting pain relief?!"


Here is your answer:

Stop focusing on the site of the pain and identify the source! That knee pain may be a product of the misalignment and/or lack of function in your hips or ankles. These photos depict the myofascial lines that run throughout your body. Fascial lines are long strands of cable-like connective tissue that attach to all of your muscles, bones, tendons and ligaments. Basically, fascia provides structural support and strength for your ENTIRE body.

Imagine what happens to these fascial lines when your body is misaligned. Take a look at all of the fascial lines that run through the pelvis. Something as simple as pelvic rotation or hip elevation could be a huge contributing factor in knee pain.


Unaddressed, postural misalignments create a chain reaction and reposition your entire body, creating muscular imbalances and compensations. Ultimately, living with misalignment means you are most likely being pulled into a constant state of tension, resulting in chronic pain and discomfort.

Unlike other forms of exercise therapy, posture therapy treats your body as a unit by addressing your overall anatomical deviations.

By fixing your posture and bringing your body back into balance, your chronic pain will be eliminated.
