For Healing and Recovery

Is pain preventing you from living the life you want?
Have you had an injury or illness that's slowing you down?

Are you recovering as quickly as you hope and expect?

A lot of us are Less Active because we enjoy low-key activities such as crafts or reading. Many of us have an Active Lifestyle and are busy with kids, travel, and demanding jobs. Some are Athletic and love to play sports.

Common to all of us, however, are occasional or chronic illnesses and injuries, and therefore the need at times for healing and recovery.

Less Active Lifestyle

“I have back pain ... arthritis ... hip joint pain … knee problems … neck and shoulder stiffness … carpal tunnel syndrome.”
“When I go to my chiropractor or massage therapist, it helps and I feel better, though only for a day or two.”
“Breathing is difficult sometimes, and seems to be getting worse.”

“Can FlexAware help me?”

Yes. People who practice FlexAware typically report significant, lasting progress.

FlexAware facilitates healing and recovery by helping you breathe more naturally and move more easily. When you move better, you feel better. There’s less stress on your joints, less wear and tear, less irritation, less inflammation.

Back pain, arthritis, and other musculoskeletal problems occur when some muscles are too tight and others too weak. FlexAware movements relax tight muscles and strengthen weak ones at the same time, while also gently increasing range of motion in the joints. That helps you move more easily and comfortably in your everyday activities.

Plus, the ease and skill you discover with FlexAware can help you get more lasting benefits from chiropractic, physical therapy, acupuncture, massage, and other treatments.

FlexAware movements increase the mobility of the ribs and improve the strength, length, resilience, and coordination of the muscles that attach to the ribs. Breathing becomes more natural and full and easy, more like a healthy young child. Many people with breathing difficulties, including asthma, have reported significant sustained improvement.
 
There are FlexAware movements you can do while sitting at your desk, in your car, in a wheelchair. You can also do FlexAware in bed, slowly and gently to help yourself relax and fall asleep, or more actively before you get up. The standing FlexAware movements can improve your balance and walking.

Active Lifestyle 

“I’ve had to slow down because of fibromyalgia … headaches … a back injury.”
“Since my accident, I’ve had pain in my neck and shoulders. It's been many weeks and I’m discouraged, even a bit depressed.”
“Some people say I should just ‘learn to live with it,’ but I want more than that. I want to really get better.”

“What can FlexAware do for me?”

Illnesses, accidents, stresses, and aging are part of life. So are healing and recovery. 

FlexAware is based on the way very young children learn and move. As very young children learn to walk, they leave crawling behind. They outgrow crawling. Have you ever considered the possibility that you can outgrow pain and health problems?

To “outgrow” something is very different than to treat it or try to cure it. Treating specific symptoms is the focus in medicine and therapy. FlexAware helps you move more easily and comfortably in your everyday activities. Moving easily facilitates innate healing processes. That's how FlexAware can be a powerful adjunct to almost any medical therapy or treatment.

When someone has an illness or accident, the way he or she breathes and moves is usually affected. When pain persists, we tend to assume that it's a result of the illness or injury, but the opposite can also be true; the disturbed or inefficient movement may be an underlying problem. Moving more easily is often the key to healing and recovery. That's how FlexAware can help people outgrow back pain, arthritis, and so on.

We can also outgrow emotional and psychological problems, including depression and anxiety. When we feel stress or anxiety, our breathing is usually shallow, rapid, mostly in the chest. Shallow breathing is also characteristic of depression. FlexAware promotes full, natural breathing, which can help everyone feel better and function better.

Healing and recovery are natural, normal. It’s what we do. FlexAware assists nature in that process.

Athletic Lifestyle

“I love running, but I can’t run because of pain in my left hip joint.”
“That last triathlon was my best, but I've been in pain ever since. I can't start training for the next one.”
“It hurts when I exercise. I’m still working out – ‘no pain, no gain,’ right? – but I’m worried because I’m not getting better.”

“Can I do FlexAware? Will it help?” 

When you can’t run for any reason, there are FlexAware exercises that use the same muscles, provide cardiovascular conditioning, and comfortably increase range of motion in the hips and other joints — all while you are lying on an exercise mat with zero impact. You’ll recover more quickly. And you’ll be a better runner when you’re ready to resume.

That’s also true for biking, swimming, skiing, golf, tennis, basketball, soccer, and other activities and exercises. FlexAware facilitates healing and helps you get back in the game.

After an injury is an especially good time to practice FlexAware. You can do the movements while protecting the injured area, engaging muscles everywhere else. That allows you to maintain a healthy level of activity. And it indirectly and gently stimulates the affected area, like an internal massage.

Ready to get back in the game — stronger, faster, and more flexible? Start now with FlexAware to enhance your fitness.
