Movement Patterns

Overview

The typical ways your body moves to do different activities, which can be good or compensatory.

Detailed Description

Movement patterns are the habitual ways the body organizes movement to accomplish tasks. These patterns can be efficient and health-promoting or dysfunctional and contributing to pain and injury.

ELDOA addresses movement patterns by improving the underlying tissue quality and neural control that influence how we move. As spinal mobility improves and body awareness develops, movement patterns naturally become more efficient and balanced.

Dysfunctional movement patterns often develop as compensations for pain, stiffness, or weakness. ELDOA addresses these root causes, allowing the body to adopt more optimal patterns once restrictions are resolved.
