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
I came in with a painful right hip, pain in the opposite knee, and a constantly stiff back. After starting the program, things started changing rather quickly, I was walking with better posture and feeling the pain in those joints going away. My wife and my daughters started commenting on my straighter posture and I was no longer slouching... I do appreciate what Pain Free Posture Clinic is doing to help so many like me.
This was more than physical therapy. Kristina taught me a lot about my body and why I felt so tight & weak. For the first time in a long time I'm able to go about my day pain free. I've been to so many physical therapy places in my life but this was the one that fixed me. Thank you so much for what you do. I couldn't recommend them enough.
After years of pain from sedentary work at the computer, plantar fasciitis and heel spurs, I arrived in dire shape at the door of [Kristina's] clinic in Houston. I am so happy to say that after two months most of my pain is either gone or decreased. I notice many big and small changes, but the most spectacular happened at the end of menu three. I had been exercising the menu and using the tower at home. Afterwards I felt the most powerful, acute pain in my right foot (the foot which had caused me the most pain over the years with sprains, swelling and caused me to walk on the outside of my right foot.) I immediately put ice on the area below my ankle on the inside of the foot. The pain lasted a few minutes and on removing the ice pack I saw a tarsal bone slightly protruding under the skin. That bone had not been visible before but now matched my left foot. I stood up and there was no pain and there is still no pain. I believe that the corrections I have been making with [Kristina] allowed the bone to escape years of being trapped by cartilage and it had broken tree. Now I am able to walk with only minor pain from the heel spur. It is wonderful to know that there is hope and promise that the rest of my body will respond and be corrected. Thank you, Kristina. Now I look forward to my retirement and know that with continued body work I will be able to climb those mountains and enjoy life. What a gift. [UPDATE:] Another change happened this week after I submitted my story to Kristina. My shoulder broke free of the adhesions and scar tissue a few days ago. I woke up and rolled over and my shoulder popped free. My shoulder is completely pain free and I have full range of motion. We are all celebrating my successes at the clinic.
In early August 2024 a neighbor I spoke with concerning my posture, foot alignment, and a horrible gait from a surgery I had in June of 2012 recommended Kristina McDaniel at Pain Free Posture Clinic and I'm so glad I took her recommendation. According to a Podiatrist I had a Tarsal Tunnel injury from an accident I had in 2010. The doctor convinced me to have surgery to remedy my injury. Well it was a botched surgery and wish I had never agreed to have my right foot operated on. There are many options with other professionals instead of an invasive surgery. Looking back on my situation I wished I had researched all my options instead of going under the knife. Here's the reality of working with Kristina, she has a great therapy for you, no matter your ailment. I will tell you. You MUST do the work weekly with her handouts or don't waste time or money! I have a ways to go, but in just 14 weeks I have improved so much with her guidance. She has helped me with my body alignment, my gait which has improved greatly and I no longer stare at the floor or ground when I walk. You must do the exercises, stretches, and commit yourself to this wonderful therapy. I would recommend Kristina to anyone who is suffering or dealing with pain to help cure you! The time and investment is definitely worth it! Let her help you help yourself!
Kristina has helped me tremendously! She took time to really listen and designed exercises to correct my posture. With each session, I experienced a new hope, correction in my body and strength. I trust her and appreciate all she has done for me.
This place is absolutely AMAZING. They have changed the life and lifestyle of myself and so many people I know. Kristina is very knowledgeable, caring and encouraging. Her assistant is the sweetest person ever. I would definitely recommend them. 10 stars.
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.
Thank you for helping me feel better and be able to run. You are a life-saver and so talented in what you do for your clients. Have a very Merry Christmas!
Give it a few sessions. Keep an open mind. Try not to let what you previously know about physical therapy exercises get in the way of it. Just Do It! It works! I have done 10 sessions and I am pain free 95% of the time. In addition, I had a rotator cuff tear, this has been completely rehabbed at Pain Free Posture Clinic.
After my first session with [Kristina], my only question was: How can something so seemingly simple and non-invasive is not as mainstream as physical therapy, pain clinics, and chiropractors? 5 years ago, I injured my back doing CrossFit. I went from being a trail runner, cyclist, swimmer to a basically sedentary lifestyle. I have tried all of the possible treatments: injections in my spine for pain/inflammation, physical therapy fora bout a year, different treatments offered at pain clinic, chiropractors - nothing provided any amount of relief. I had reached the baffling and embarrassing stage of having to lay down to put my shows on. Fast forward until a few weeks ago; a wrong move, excruciating pain, and it was close to impossible to walk. [Kristina] made it ALL go away after an hour. One single hour is all it took to move my hip back where it belonged, and magically that back pain I’ve had for years was gone. Naturally, before the session, I was highly skeptical. How can I not? After all, I had done all of the mainstream treatments, short of having surgery. It’s all biomechanics. It’s about understanding how every muscle, ligaments, tendons, bones all work together. If one set of muscles is disengaged, it starts a chain of events, resulting in pain. It’s about finding the exact root cause of the pain, and guiding the body to re-align itself. Katerina will evaluate your posture, how you walk, how you stand, and guide you through a series of motion exercises to begin correcting what needs to be addressed, and soon you will be on your way to a more aligned body without pain. Equally important, [Kristina] is a real pleasure to work with. She understands what it means to be in pain. I didn’t have to try and convince her I was miserably handicapped ~ she gets it. (a welcome change from my experience with many doctors and chiropractors). If you are skeptical like I was, just go for it. You have nothing to lose, quite the opposite (the first session is free).
