Hey, stand on one leg then close your eyes. How’s your balance? Our guest today, Dr. Derya Anderson, is a movement and breathing specialist and she’s here to explain Postural Restoration and how imbalances in our bodies, in places we least expect, can cause us pain. As a Postural Restoration Certified (PRC) physical therapist, she examines the complete picture to identify the actual cause of dysfunction, emphasizing that our brains, eyes, and teeth are interconnected, contrary to how our healthcare system often treats them.
Today’s discussion may surprise you. It’s not about standing up straight but rather about the brain’s continuous drive for safety. It’s about taking a different route to work and sitting on the opposite side of the couch for once. Don’t you miss the fluidity of childhood when your life didn’t revolve around patterns? Dr. Anderson is here today to give us permission to just relax. Tune in and try a PR technique while you listen!
