Thank you for participating! You will find all relevant information on this page.
Exercises used during the workout
You have done exercises taken from the Egoscue method of postural therapy, started by Pete Egoscue in the 1970s. They are also known as e-cises: Egoscue-cises or Easy-cises. Egoscue is a method of postural therapy that is individual, tailor made to the body of the individual, taking into account the pains, symptoms, personality and time schedule of the individual. The ecises are put together in such a way as to restore balance and function to the body, form an antidote to a sedentary lifestyle and reduce or remove pain symptoms.
This general workout is, of course, geared toward the ‘average’ person and is not meant to cure or relieve particular symptoms. If you choose to repeat this workout by yourself, always skip the ecises that cause you (more) pain. To work on your pains and symptoms we need to create a personalized routine written just for you. Please contact me for more information.
Getting access to the exercises
If you participated in the workout you will get access to the recording so you can do the workout again. But if you want to have the exercises for yourself I offer the following two options:
For 10 euros I can send you the PDF with all the exercises, in the order that we have done them. The PDF is in English with descriptions, fun facts and pictures of the exercises.
App for smart device
For 20 euros I can send you the exercises in a proprietary app that you can use on your smart device or in the web browser. The app contains the instructions, pictures, fun facts and also videos of all the exercises (all in English), as well as a handy built-in timer. See below for some screen shots. This is the same app that I used during the workout. It is your personal account with the Egoscue Method and can later be used for personalized routines if you want.
Free e-book about working behind the computer pain free (in Dutch)
Click here to download the PDF or click the picture below. If not for yourself (if you don’t speak Dutch), perhaps for someone else you would like to have a pain free (work) life. Feel free to share with others.
Free webinar
Are you interested in learning more about this method of living a pain free life without depending on therapists, adjustments etc.? I regularly give webinars in Dutch. Click here for details and dates. Again, if not for yourself, perhaps you know someone who desires to lead a pain free life. If none of these dates work for you, please do register anyway as you will be kept up to date about future dates. I might do an English webinar if there is sufficient interest, please contact Claudia or myself! I also did a presentation during one of the IMN meetings (in English) and would be happy to repeat this (online or offline). Please contact me or Claudia.
- You have tried many therapies and methods to get rid of your (chronic) pain. You have seen several therapists (chiropractor, massage therapist, physical therapist etc) or even had surgery. Still, this hasn’t worked. Why?
- How does posture influence health?
- How to get to the root cause of your pain instead of managing your symptoms. Including doing therapies and treatments that only work for a limited amount of time.
- Why is it important to act NOW?
- Do posture gadgets really work? What about orthotics?
- What is posture therapy (not), what is the link between posture and your symptoms and how good is your posture?
- How can you stay active up until a very old age without limitations?
We will do a few simple exercises and tests during the workshop. You don’t need special equipment or clothing for this. Please invite your friends but do let them register themselves!
Yes, I want to register for the free online workshop (in Dutch)
Free posture advice and quick scan
Looking to improve your posture or work on your (pain) symptoms? Did you notice that you couldn’t do some exercises (without pain)? Do you feel limited in the things you want to do or simply want to stay active up until old age? Are you considering surgery? Contact me for a free phone consult (20 minutes) where we discuss your situation and I can give you advice, and we can see if posture therapy is a good match for you. This can be done by Zoom/Skype/Facetime too.
Want me to have a look at your posture? Make use of the free “Quick Posture Scan” (30 minutes) where we look at your posture (based on pictures) and I will let you know what I see and how this could relate to your pain symptoms and how the Egoscue method of posture therapy would go about working on those issues. The free quick scan can be done by e-mail, online (Zoom, FaceTime, Skype etc) or at one of the practice locations (Amsterdam, Purmerend, Steenwijk). Contact me if you are interested in either of these options.
Company workouts
Looking for workouts or lectures for your company? A pain free coworker is a happy and productive coworker! I’d be happy to talk about the possibilities. This can be a “lunch and learn” of 30 – 60 minutes or a(n online) workout like the one we did, or anything in between. Or even personalized therapy for your employees and coworkers. Contact me for the possibilities.
Individual therapy
The Egoscue method is an individual way of addressing your symptoms by optimizing YOUR posture. The exercises you do are adjusted to your level of functionality, preferences and lifestyle. Herein lies the effectiveness of 94%. You CAN help yourself get pain free and back to doing what you want(ed), thousands of clients do it every day. But you have to do something – do your exercises every day. As little as 5 or 10 minutes a day will give you progress.
Let me know if you’re interested to start a personalized journey to become pain free.
