Josh Warren, M.S., LMT, Healthy Acadia to offer An Introduction to NeuroMuscular Balancing for Performance, Pain Relief, and Wellness
Community members are invited to join Healthy Acadia online via Zoom on Thursday, January 5, 2023, from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., for “An Introduction to NeuroMuscular Balancing for Performance, Pain Relief, and Wellness,” with special guest Josh Warren, M.S., LMT. The free online event is the latest installment in Healthy Acadia’s Monthly Mindfulness series.
As he debunks some common myths about stretching and exercise, Josh will introduce participants to NeuroMuscular Balancing techniques for performance, pain relief, and wellness.
Since muscles pull bones, opposing muscles should be in balance. Balancing muscles improves range of motion and joint function including straighter tracking of the hips and knees. A variety of techniques are utilized to help lengthen the short and tight muscles and shorten the long and tight muscles to bring the body toward balance. Release tension regardless of how long the muscles have been tight.
This gentle modality includes a postural assessment and corrective and take-home exercises, and addresses the cause of many issues including and not limited to neck, shoulder, back, knee, and hip discomfort. NeuroMuscular Balancing is ideal for those interested in a self-empowered approach.
In this session, Josh will share four key stretches that can help set the stage for a lifetime of wellness. There will be Q & A to enhance the interactive experience so attendees can take away what they find most pertinent to their daily well-being. Find out more at NeuroMuscularBalancing.com.
Pre-registration is required for this free event. The one-hour session will be offered virtually via Zoom. To register and receive the Zoom link, go to bit.ly/mindful-1523.
