Posture Awareness and Practice with PRT

By Ashley Osier MA, HHE, CPS, CSMT, CAMT, CAYT, CWHP It brings me great joy to live in a body that is fifteen years older and no longer limited by moment-to-moment pain. Posture Chart showing progress over a 9 month period Posture therapy has been a bit of an obsession with me since being injured in 1997 and working with a posture specialist twice a week for six months.

Chronic Pain and Exercise

Chronic Pain and Exercise By Ashley Osier MA, HHE, CPS, CSMT, CAMT, CAYT, CWHP Currently chronic pain impacts 100 million Americans, more than diabetes, coronary heart disease  and cancer combined, each year.   ~ John Hopkins Medical Center and the American Academy of Pain Medicine      This article is written for those who are struggling with chronic pain, for my clients and students who are in process with countering their own chronic pain, and for those who love someone who suffers from chronic pain. Part of my intention in putting this together is to provide a safety check for chronic pain sufferers in the current sea of fitness videos, practices, approaches and expectations in attaining the perfect body and fitness level.
