Neuro Muscular Amnesia


Neuromuscular amnesia happens when the nerve pathway to a muscle stops working correctly. The body “forgets” how to activate that muscle.


A common example is asking someone to squeeze their glutes and watching them engage their stomach or pelvic floor instead. You can test yourself by standing with your feet straight and trying to contract only your glutes. If other muscles join in, you may have this issue.


Posture therapy addresses neuromuscular amnesia by:


  • Identifying muscles that are not activating properly
  • Re-training the nervous system to recruit them correctly
  • Reducing compensation from other muscles
  • Restoring proper movement patterns


The goal is to get the right muscles doing the right job at the right time so your body functions at its best.

Pandiculation - Animals Do It and So Should You!

By Lawrence • April 11, 2026
Pandiculation is the process of resetting muscle length and tension. Animals do it naturally after rest. A dog or cat will arch its spine, then round it. Here’s what happens: Arching activates the extensor muscles Rounding activates the flexor muscles. Activating one group and then the other helps each side release when not in use. This movement restores neutral balance in the spine. In posture therapy, working the opposing muscle group can help fix a muscle that is overactive or not firing when needed. This improves muscle coordination and reduces tension.
