Human Movement Seminar

Epigenetics and Hormesis Applied to Human Biomechanics

Details:

A one day seminar

Unit 1

We dive deep into some science fundamentals - We look at Ancestral Health Practices from the viewpoint of evolutionary epigenetics, hormesis and mechano-transduction. We explore the concept of movement casts and how they affect us at a cellular level.

Unit Two:

Feet, gait, shoes, 'barefoot shoes' and the 'barefoot movement'. We look at the problems and pathologies being caused by conventional footwear. We explore how our feet are designed to work and what they are capable of. We look at indications for foot rehabilitation and how to transition to more minimalist footwear or even barefoot.

Unit 3:

Pillow and mattress choices for neck and spine health.

We re-frame some questions around what is the best sleep system and best sleep postures for optimum spinal health.
We review some literature discussing pillows and mattresses, and lay out a method for rehabilitating our sleep systems.

Unit 4:

Posture and environment. We know that deconditioning is caused when we adapt to a less demanding environment. So we explore ways to re-vitalize our home, work and gym environments.

Take away:

We also take the pain out of educating patients by sending all participants home with simple but powerful actionable protocols in the form of digital PDFs for each topic.

You can see an example by downloading our footwear protocol.
