How It Works
1. Establish a Baseline
You'll start by meeting Kristina and discussing your specific pain.
- What hurts?
- What is holding you back?
- What aren't you able to do anymore?
She'll explain the theory behind Posture Alignment Therapy and how it can help. In addition, Kristina will establish a baseline of postural photos against which to measure your progress in future sessions.
You'll begin your first in-person session immediately following.
2. In-Person Sessions
Kristina will use the following methods of discovery to pinpoint dysfunction and compensations exhibited by your body:
- Postural photos
- Hip joint palpation and observation
- Gait analysis
Next, Kristina will make an assessment and create a take-home menu of corrective exercises to help you feel better. She'll guide you in performing each exercise, teaching you correct form. You become part of the healing process by providing feedback on pain levels and perception of your corrected alignment.
3. Your Take-Home Menu
Your customized menu will provide photos and detailed instructions for each exercise as well as personalized notes from Kristina. This routine should be practiced on your own each morning until your next in-person session. You will receive a printed copy of your menu at the end of each session.
You may also access your menu via our free mobile app. In addition to the photos and instructions, the app features:
- Instructional videos on how to properly perform each exercise
- A convenient exercise timer
- A feedback tool which allows you to chart how you feel prior to and following your routine
- Indefinite access to all past menus
You'll feel better after your first visit!
You may have tried other therapies or drug-based treatments for chronic pain which, at best, only work temporarily. This can be discouraging when such pain interferes with your ability to truly thrive. While most treatment methods merely address symptoms or attempt to mask discomfort, Posture Alignment Therapy targets postural issues at the source of chronic pain. Embracing this method has enabled thousands of people just like you to ditch the pills, find an alternative to surgery, and feel better for good!
Client Testimonials
In September of 2011 I had Back surgery to open some channels for spinal nerves. Following that surgery I developed some real problems with core strength involving several back muscles. [Kristina] developed a series of exercises (menus) that got me from moving only with a cane to being very mobile again in about 3 to 3.5 months. At that point I knew it was possible for me to get back on the water doing my trick water skiing routines. Each menu has demanded patience and persistence, but in the end it has been well worth it! I plan to continue with maintenance exercises; there is no way that I want to risk the pain and discomfort of last October ever again!
Before starting the program at Pain Free Posture Clinic, my life was absolutely limited by awkward motions. (I had lots of rotation through my body.) After joining Pain Free Posture Clinic I felt enlightened. I wish I had started sooner. Now that I'm attending regular sessions, I'm continually making progress and improvements. I'm doing awesome. I have more physical range of motion and strength. If you're on the fence about joining, know that I wish I had started sooner. Do the work and have fun with it.
I have been going to Kristina for over 12 years and I am so glad to see her with her own place. I started with her because of hip problems that caused a lot of pain and it was hard to sit for any length of time. Kristina was able to give me exercises that helped and now I don't have pain (unless I don't do the exercises for awhile - so I do keep up). When I had a shoulder problem from repetitive motion 3 years ago, she was able to give me exercises to help with that issue. I go back regularly to get new exercises to keep me motivated and help keep me pain free.
Awesome place. I went with terrible back pain, frozen shoulder and numbness in legs. Kristina has diligently [worked] through my issues. I'll continue to visit her for good posture and pain free existence.
I am 68 years old and thought I might be doomed to pain the rest of my life. After I retired I began experiencing severe upper back pain. Following an evaluation by my doctor he suggested a pain clinic for my degenerative back issues. Not wanting to go the pain management route, I remembered a friend had suggested [posture alignment therapy]. At my first visit about two years ago Kristina listened professionally and assessed my situation. She took pictures and applied the images to her computer program to illustrate the sources of my problem. She carefully assigned a menu of exercises for me to do at home and assured me I could call if I had any questions. Being new to [the therapy], I felt a bit insecure doing exercises on my own until she showed me the convenient app for my phone complete with pictures, timers and instructions for each exercise. At each visit Kristina asks about my current health and assigns a new menu of exercises. I am so happy with the progress I've made with the exercises. I live an active life and seldom experience back pain.
Kristina and Pain Free Posture Clinic has completely changed my relationship to pain. Under her guidance, I have learned ways to get out of pain when it comes AND, more importantly, how to use targetted movement as prevention. I cannot say enough good things. 100% recommendation.
I had never gotten depressed that I could remember, but I was familiar with the signs. Depression was setting in. I had been hurting for 13 years as best I could figure after throwing my back out working in my yard. Sciatica in my right leg down to my ankle was paralyzing me each afternoon and the demands of teaching was becoming too much to handle through the pain. I hurt most of the day and lying down was the only thing that seemed to give me relief. I was ready to retire! But I was only in my 50's! Through all those years I went to 4 doctors (one was ready to do ankle surgery!) and 3 different rehabs. I also went to 3 different chiropractors. Last spring, a doctor told me I had a bulging disc L4 and L5, which I had never been told. I received a series of 3 shots in my back, which gave me a liffle relief. I had tried lots of things and was running out of hope. Facing back surgery and dreading the thought, I was thinking I had no other choice. I was visiting a friend, Julia, who had been after me for several years to try [Posture Alignment Therapy]. It was successful for her so she suggested that I make an appointment with Kristina in Houston. By November I was in really bad shape, but after working with Kristina for a couple of hours, I could feel my hope return! She worked with me again the next day before I caught my plane to make sure I knew how to do the [exercises]. Since then Kristina and I have used Skype every 2 weeks or so to meet together for our appointment. We discuss the [exercises] on my menu, where we might need to make adjustments to the exercises, and how life is so much better! It has now been 6 months since I started [with Kristina]. I walk straighter, my eyes show hope, and the sciatica has gone away! I do my menu every morning before school and my tower at night, before bed. I am going to the gym again and that feels good. Is it easy to discipline myself? Not always, but I know if I don't do it, I will regret it. The effort you put into the [exercises] and tower [is proportional] to the pain relief you will get. I'm looking forward to the summer and I hope to make more progress than I can ever imagine.
I have had surgeries following a motorcycle accident. I had 5 surgeries for a chronically dislocated shoulder, despite the physical therapy and work with personal trainers I had pretty much given up on feeling better. I started with Kristina at Pain Free Posture Clinic doing the exercises and stretches prescribed for me based on my posture and it has changed my life. I felt better after the very first session. I now feel better and am able to do more than I have in years.
I cannot sing enough praise for Kristina at Pain Free Posture Clinic. She is truly genuine, kind-hearted, and highly skilled at what she does. Through my time with her, she's given me so many helpful tools for relieving tension, pain, and postural imbalances. I highly recommend her to anyone who's having similar issues, especially if methods like traditional physical therapy haven't helped in the past (like me). Kristina genuinely cares for her clients, and it was such a blessing to have met her and spent time working with her. Thank you for all you do, Kristina!
OMG I don't even know where to start but first THANK YOU for noticing my structural imperfections and giving me hope and knowledge that I can get this fixed and ride my horse in a balanced and square position the way I did when I was a kid.
