Is deteriorating posture an inevitable part of aging.
Logic would tell you that posture progressively deteriorates in everyone as we age. In fact anyone who might dare suggest otherwise would rightfully be viewed with a lot of skepticism. Even though the importance of good posture has been recognized and depicted in the writings and drawings of many ancient civilizations, no one has developed anything that can reverse the postural changes associated with aging.
I am Dr. Brent Jarrett I completed my premed in Utah then graduated from the Pennsylvania College of Podiatric Medicine. After a residency in Chicago in Podiatric Surgery I returned to Utah to a practice of Podiatric Medicine and Surgery. I first became involved in research during my 3rd year of medical school, published and received the gold medal Stickle award for outstanding Podiatric research, given by the American Podiatric Medical Association.
I have been well trained to understand and treat conditions of the foot and leg. I had a strong background in basic anatomy and human biomechanics but before theta, little knowledge or specific training in postural related conditions or treatment. Before I understood theta I did not realize how complicated and important posture really was.
I discovered theta, and it’s relationship to foot and body function in 1985. Shortly after I discovered these principles responsible for optimal foot and leg function, I realized what Theta did more than anything else was change posture. After treating more than eight thousand patients over 20 years with Theta, I now know that the postural changes observed on the last page do NOT have to be an inevitable part of aging.
Progressive Theta control has been demonstrated clinically to stabilize and reverse posture related directly with angular measurment defined as Theta.
Theta relates directly to optimal posture. Treatment with high levels of theta angular correction will significantly change posture, both immediate and long term effects are observed. Theta control above 30 degrees has been described as walking yoga as it produces a stronger force to straighten the spine than yoga and it does it while standing, walking and even running.
My research has defined a process of postural change that I refer to as postural restructuring and control. It involves both physical and physiological changes that occur when theta angular correction is used during weight bearing activity. It causes supination of the foot and ankle with external rotation of the leg. This stabilizes the pelvis and provides a more horizontal foundation for the entire spine. Over all I believe that the forces applied to the foot, created by body mass and gravity, are off set by the change in Theta correction. I believe that theta reduces the destructive effect gravity has on our human form. I know that theta can reverse even years of poor posture and can cause a child to grow with perfect posture.
If you find it difficult to believe that something can actually help you stand up straight, you are consistent with most. As you probably know much of life is truly what you choose to create, and now with Theta so is your Posture...
