Creating Lift

 

Very nice before and after image from a single session. In the after picture my client is counteracting gravity’s influence and creates lift coming up and out of her hips. Implied but not seen the lumbar spine is too far anterior and part of the challenge is to shift the lumbar spine more posteriorly which is no easy task. Engagement of the core muscles is helpful in this regard to shifting the lumbar spine back. From a lateral line perspective my client looks good since she is counterbalancing her structure effectively. If one could magically bring her lumbar spine back it would throw her lateral line off completely. To move the lumbar spine back takes time and the slower pace of doing that allows everything above to shift to accommodate a new refined lateral line.
