Stand Up Straight with Structural Integration

It is common to think poor posture is caused by laziness. Ed Hemberger, LMT, ART, founder of Hemberger Structural Integration, shares, “The voices from childhood telling us to ‘stand up straight’ still resonate. Structural Integration, however, takes a more useful, positive  approach that begins with the knowledge that change is possible in our bodies and in physical behaviors such as posture.”

Good posture results from a well-aligned, balanced structure. Structural Integration (SI), a form of bodywork developed by Dr. Ida Rolf, systematically realigns the segments of the body structure—even life-long postural habits can be dramatically improved. Hemberger begins sessions with a new client by identifying structural restrictions and limiting habits. Next, he works to release, balance and realign the structure. As the body structure improves, he then teaches the client how to recognize and maintain better, balanced positions.

SI bodywork reduces overall body stress, relieves pain and increases flexibility. The enhanced sense of balance often enables clients to feel a stronger sense of control.

5 Top Tips to Finding Your Next Doctor

1 Keep an Open Mind! Healthcare has come a long way. Today, you have access to practitioners that branch outside of traditional medicine and aim to identify the root causes of conditions while using alternative treatments that may help you get the relief you need. Just because it’s not a pill, doesn’t make it pseudoscience.

2 Build Your Health Care Team. There is no one doctor that can be the be-all-end-all for your health needs. Be sure to have a team of practitioners with different “lenses” and areas of expertise who will treat the root cause and not just the symptom(s).

3   Environment Influences Healing. Health is multi-factorial. Your mental and emotional environment plays a pivotal role in your healing potential. Your doctors and their staff should create an office atmosphere filled with positivity so you can get the most out of your care.

4 Your Story Matters.  Before you begin any treatment, be sure to have a comprehensive consultation to discuss your health concerns. Find practitioners who welcome questions and will take the time to listen and treat you with respect.

5 Report of Findings. When it comes to our health, we often make decisions without understanding the risk versus benefits. Knowledge is an important part of the healing process and is essential to make conscious, informed health decisions. Find practitioners who take the time to explain their exam findings and the recommendations for treatment in ways that make sense to you.
