Valery Alignment

Alignment therapy is a unique modality that was born out of 10 years of treating clients with orthoepedic pain, musculoskeletal dysfuctions, movement restrictions, sports injuries and chronic conditions.

In my sessions as well as the longer programmes I follow the next structure:
- Visual and manual assessment (including photos)
- Functional tests
- Rehab strategy
- Soft tissue therapy (massage, fascial release, lymphatic)
- Reassessment
- Corrective exercise
- Take home strategy (exercises, ergonomics, enviroment)

 

The best way to describe this approach in a few words is RELEASE AND RELEARN. We are releasing restrictions and then teaching the brain and body a new way of movement. I found that to be a winning combination that ensures constant improvement and empowers my clients with deep understanding of their own body.

The discovery or barefoot living and minimalistic footwear literally changed my life, health, approach and practice.
Growing up with the idea of having flat feet as a genetic fact, awaiting the unevitable bunions and struggling with ingrown toenails, I knew how horrible foot issues can be but had no solutions.
Frustrated with buying shoes, avoided long walks and couldn't run without ankle sprains.
You can probably imagine how healing that affected me in all aspects. Going from constant discomfort to strong and resillient feet that provibe a stable base to stand on, supporting my body and enjoying movement and loads. AH, THE FREEDOM!
Obviously, this became a major part of my work. Through the changes in my own body I could see and feel the effects of weak feet on the physical, mental and emotional aspects.
Incorprating natural foot rehab in my general realignment work started to prove again and again that issues such as chronic fatigue, poor posture, depression and migraines can originate from weak or misaligned feet.
So if you can relate, please know that there are non surgical solutions!
At the clinic we will be doing feet assessments, manual work, exercises and relearning how to walk. Footwear consults, proper measuring, safe transitions and corrective aids/products are available as well.
The main thing is that we never look at the feet as a separate part from the rest of the body. We address everything that is related to get a fundamental and permanent change.
