A Saint Bartholomew practitioner testing a client's stance and hip position on the training floor

From the founder
New York, NY

Most people who come here have already tried everything

If you are reading this, you have probably done the rounds. The specialists, the imaging, the sheet of exercises, the injections, maybe even surgery. Something helped for a week or two, and then the pain came back on its own schedule.

Postural restoration looks at the problem differently. Instead of treating the spot that hurts, we look at the position your body holds by default, meaning how your ribcage, pelvis and jaw influence your breathing and how load travels through you. When that system is stuck on one side, the joints downstream carry a load they were never built for, and the symptom often shows up far away from the actual cause.

That is why a hip pattern can drive a headache, and why treating the headache alone never holds.

Our practitioners are credentialed in this work and trained through the institute that developed it.

How we work

01
Assess.
We test position, breathing and movement to find the pattern your body defaults to.
02
Explain.
We show you what we found and how it connects to the symptom you walked in with.
03
Reposition.
Specific drills to get you out of that pattern — usually minutes a day, not hours.
04
Retrain.
We load the new position so it holds up in your normal life.

From professional sport to a New York clinic

This work was built in professional sport, where an athlete cannot afford a symptom that keeps returning. Our team spent years on performance staffs in the NBA and MLB before opening a clinic here in New York, because the people who need this most are not professional athletes. They are adults whose pain has outlasted every explanation they have been given.

Our clients usually arrive with “uncommon” pain

By the time they call us, they have:

Seen a long list of specialists
Been told the imaging looks normal
Had joint replacement or other surgery
Tried chiropractic, physical therapy and acupuncture
…and never got a result that lasted

This is where you come when everything else has failed.

We would rather show you the work than describe it. Start with one free phone call where we lay out the plan to get you back to full function, with no obligation to continue.
