Mechanical Evaluation and Structural Balance

Structural Balance is a deep reworking of the balance of the muscles and tendons of the body, to bring them back into proper alignment. Mechanical Evaluation and Structural Balance has a very great influence on your total health. You may experience joint pain, digestive disturbances, "nerve" problems, easily injured joints, and many other problems because of structural imbalance.

A structural balance addresses musculoskeletal imbalances and issues such as maladaptive muscle recruitment and movement patterns, inhibition or over facilitation of muscles, fascial restriction, abnormal neurodynamics and neural sensitivity, strength deficits, postural compensations, repetitive strain, joint problems and other soft tissue injuries.

It include a variety of treatment options

  • spinal and peripheral joint mobilization/manipulation
  • myofascial release and trigger point release
  • neural mobilization and desensitization
  • dry needling
  • posture and gait correction
  • correction of muscle imbalances
  • optimizing muscle recruitment patterns
  • exercise rehabilitation (strength and flexibility)
  • wedging (rebalancing the body using customized temporary wedges in the shoes)

Benefits of Structural Balancing

  • Relief of join tension
  • Relief of compensation in the body
  • Improve weight bearing & balance
  • improve joint acticulation
  • Relieve back, shoulder or neck pain
  • Relieve problems in the leg such as sciatica, knee pain, shin splints, cramp in toes or foot imbalances (pronation/supination)
  • Reduce recurring injuries
  • Regain function after accident or surgery
  • Revitalise heavy or tired arms, relieve pain in the elbow or carpal tunnel symptoms
  • Maintain correct posture with less aches and pains
  • Improve balance, flexibility and strength
  • Recapture and maintain the fluidity and grace of movement
