Early development
Sometimes the reality of why you face challenges to being active is that your muscles did not learn to work together correctly with sensory systems way back when you were a baby. This can be from three time periods:
- Prenatal – where there can be genetics, illness, or positional movement limitations in play, which kept your micromovements foundation from completely forming.
- Birth – where too fast, too slow or an unexpected traumatic birth can upset the well formed foundation from your prenatal period.
- Early months when illness, medical procedures (surgery, NICU) or bracing for hip dysplasia, torticollis or foot deformities can limit the systematic building of foundational movement transitions needed for brain development, sensory integration to movement, and balance control.
What?
For a child, these early disrupters can mean delays in mastering crawling, walking, skipping or drawing. For a teen or young adult, they can be the source of anxiety and social unease. For an adult, pain or unending injuries can be the result of early movement development gaps.
How?
Our micromovement assessment quickly surfaces where the cause of the problem is. We navigate the way you grew with compensations due to the disruptors and guide your muscles step-by-step into a new way of working together. For young children, this is a quick process. For teens and adults change is possible and tangible but expect more than 2-3 sessions to get the results you are hoping for.
What do we look for?
The assessment is different than with injuries, illness and medical procedures. We identify how your muscles learned to work together and then gradually transition limbs and core to new ways of interacting. This is often an alternating process working with core, then limbs and back to core. The good news is that these relationships CAN change!
Why does this matter?
You have the frame of reference of how you move and have never known another way. But even if you had early life disrupters, there is another way! You, too, can enjoy the ease and comfort of improved physical function. Movement need not be such a struggle!
By recognizing the unique disrupters in your past, Bridging can specifically support your muscles and guide them to work together again. You will be moving easier after your first session, with most of your micromovements restored in 2-3 sessions.
