The Differences Between PRT and Body Rolling: Part Two

The Differences Between PRT and Body Rolling: Part Two 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. As I consider contrasting Body Rolling with the Point Release™ Technique, it would be a normal temptation to try and discount one to highlight the other. Since this is not my intention and there is good information to share for both, my hope is that each reader will walk away well informed enough to be smart with their own body. Initially I set out to give a simple highlight on the differences, but after more investigation I found that Body Rolling has expanded, so I want to give credit where it is due.  Body Rolling, or Yamuna Body Rolling®, focuses on structural problems and "everywhere you have muscle connecting from one place to another."

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. He was able to open my eyes to the repetitiveness of my sliding back into incorrect posture, the need for strengthening the core to support a lengthened spine, and the micro-practice of awareness, stretching and strengthening needed to maintain a corrected posture. I had no idea how much of an impact he would make on my life both personally and professionally, but am ever thankful.  My challenge was that the work itself was incredibly painful and often put me into spasms that prevented me from practicing. So when I created Point Release™ Technique, I was thankful to get reli...
