The ELDOA™
ELDOAs™ are postural self-normalizing techniques designed for widening the space within a chosen articulation. This is accomplished by adopting a posture that creates a very specific fascial tension around a primary lesion or joint creating a fixed point, then by applying a contraction in “extreme” range allows a decoaptation to happen between the chosen articulation.
ELDOA™ exercises or ‘ELDOAs™’ bring a multitude of health benefits, including:
- Relief from pain
- Improved joint mechanics
- Performance enhancement
- Sports recovery
- Increased blood flow
- Reduced pressure on discs
- Spinal rehydration
- Increased muscle tone
- Improved posture
- Overall sense of wellbeing
