What is Egoscue?

The Egoscue Method is a process of postural alignment using simple exercises in order to alleviate pain and achieve health.

Posture affects everything! From structural alignment of bones and joints to the muscles, cartilage, tendons and ligaments that move them. But it doesn't stop there! Posture also affects the function of the organs and systems of the body which impacts our ability to maintain health and freedom from disease.
A body that can access its full range of motion with proper alignment is a body that is pain-free and healthy from the inside-out!

Developed by Pete Egoscue in the 1970's, the Egoscue Method has helped thousands of people to get out of pain by learning the language of the body and responding appropriately.
To learn more about the Egoscue Method and try it out for yourself, read Pain Free: A Revolutionary Method for Stopping Chronic Pain or The Egoscue Method of Health Through Motion. Both books are by Pete Egoscue and Roger Gittines and are available from the Washington County Libraries.

This Method helped me alleviate the tendinitis I'd been experiencing for several years. I had tried physical therapy, acupuncture, resting, and none of those worked for me. By working with an Egoscue practitioner, I learned things about my body that I was not aware of and was able to learn what I could do to make changes for own health and healing.
My experience was so amazing, and the use of some yoga poses made this a natural enrichment and complement to my yoga therapy practice.
So, I decided to train to become an Egoscue practitioner. I am almost finished, and sessions will be available SOON!

Egoscue Support Sessions

Monday evening from 7:30-8:15 

Wednesday morning from 10:45-11:30

Friday morning from 9:00-9:45 AM 

These classes are on a drop-in basis.

Egoscue support sessions are available to those who want to practice their exercises with others. These groups will offer help and feedback with the correct implementation of the exercises as well as the moral support and company of others. 

Stay for as little or as much of the time as you need. This is an unstructured time for you to do your exercises, get feedback if necessary and to find company in your Egoscue practice. This group is free to those who have had an Egoscue session with Sandi. Others can come on a donation basis.
