As the coordinator of your personalized program, your CPA will work with each fitness professional that serves you - your cycling instructor, Private Trainer, Pilates Instructor, etc. - to ensure that they are all guiding you in the right direction: the direction that you want to go. Your CPA will meet with your respective trainers to implement a strategy to meet your goals, track your progress, and eventually, provide a follow up to your program with a post-program evaluation.

Common pains, such as lower back pain, regardless of age or circumstances, almost always involves two things: Observable skeletal misalignment and muscular weakness. The Egoscue Method works to strengthen key muscles, using them to restore and maintain alignment. The Postural Alignment Specialist strives for the following: - Identify anatomical dysfunction and limitations. - Restore and maintain the body's full range of motion. - Develop optimum levels of physical and mental wellness. - Promote well being through functional physical fitness and proper nutrition. - Enhance performance of professional and recreational athletes. - Provide method for overcoming physical limitations. How the Analysis is used: 1) View the body by taking a "physical" X-Ray in the form of photos. 2) Compare the body to the template of an "ideally" functional body, which should have vertical and horizontal alignment of all load-bearing joints. 3) Notice the discrepancy between this template and the photos. 4) Correct the musculature by strengthening and stretching in appropriate places and using gravity to settle the body into place. This is done by devising a specific menu to work on the individual's needs. 5) The choice of the exercises is as important as the order in which you place them. 6) Exercises are to be performed daily. Menus are updated weekly or every two weeks, depending on progression. When the body is functional, new programs are used to maintain function. Further information on the Egoscue Method can be viewed at www.egoscue.com. The program is taught by Lucas Peltonen, Postural Alignment Specialist trained in the Egoscue Method, in conjunction with the Egoscue Method Clinic in San Diego, CA. 6-8 WEEK MASTERY PROGRAMS Enhance your fitness routine with the mastery of an extended fitness measure.
