The 3T'sof Symmetry: Theory, Technology, Therapy
Why Symmetry?
Author Jaide Mummy with emotional support dog Kida
When I first got Kida, we immediately got her into training. Whatever she had experienced in her past produced bad habits and unnatural behavior. But we knew that the sweet puppy Kida had always been was still there, we simply needed to break down those bad habits and expose her naturally healthy personality. So, our trainer taught us how to work with and maintain Kida at home. We spent two hours a month with him, and took our knowledge home with us so that we could continue to progress on our own. Kida graduated from training after a year with flying colors, and I still train her myself once a week to ensure that I maintain the wonderful achievements we made with our hard work.
This is how Symmetry works. From the moments we are born we learn how to naturally walk, sit, and dance, with healthy & pain free performance. But, as we get older and begin new lifestyles, whether that be physically draining jobs, accidents, or underlying injuries, our bodies form bad habits and we begin leaning on our compensations. The natural and healthy way we as humans are supposed to move is still there, it's just masked by those bad habits. What we do here at Symmetry, just like we did at home with Kida, is teach you how to break down those compensations & bad habits and build up & maintain a healthy lifestyle. Helping yourself is hard work, but if Kida can do it so can you!
95% of the time, the pain you feel is coming from the other side of your body. So, does it make sense that your treatments should focus on your site of pain? This is the reason many people spend excruciating amounts of money for hands-on treatment, such as acupuncture or chiropractic medicine. Chiropractic treatment is a licensed health care profession that emphasizes the body's ability to heal itself. Treatment typically involves manual therapy, often including spinal manipulation. Chiropractors are an efficient technique of exposing and banishing your pain temporarily. Symmetry for Health operates a bit differently. Here is an in-depth look at what we do here at Symmetry.
AlignSmart Technology
Our Postural Assessment Kit is used to quantitatively measure 20 landmarks assessing your posture. This is what our Practitioners do in the office. Our AlignSmart software uses these measurements & creates a unique sequence of individualized corrective exercises. We use physics to align your structure and retrain your balance which results in pain relief. Our bodies are working mechanisms, meaning everything is connected. If even the tiniest thing is out of place, it’s possible the whole machine could internally collapse. Compensations are what we subconsciously produce to relieve the pain from the afflicted area. This is why unnatural areas of our bodies experience constant pain. Symmetry goes beyond that pain, those compensations, and identifies the original malfunction. We break down those bad habits, and strengthen your muscles so you have the necessary tools you need to hold yourself upon gravity pain-free.
The Program
Our patent-pending system for postural correction and pain relief is three-fold:
Phase 1 - Correction: Persistent removal of bad habits formed in the body to expose the cause of system breakdown. This phase exists from session #1 to session #6.
Phase 2 - Strengthening: Postural Restoration through strengthening exercises ensures balance throughout the body. This phase exists from session #7 to session #10.
Phase 3 - Transformation: Repeated daily practice ensures the brain has time to hold the changes in memory should daily practice stop. This phases exists from session #11 to session #16.
You get a brand new series of corrective exercises we call a ‘routine’ every single session. In each appointment, your practitioner will measure you completely with their AlignSmart Technology devices, and our technicians will take you through your routine. We have over 300 exercises in our system, and each routine has an average of 8-10. It’s important for you to understand how to do your exercises, what you are doing internally with each exercise, and why each exercise is beneficial and correlated to your measurements. We pride ourselves here at Symmetry in educating our clients, and our certified practitioners & technicians are knowledgeable and informative. Now, here’s the big reveal. Aside from the quantitative measurements to prove the therapy, here is the one reason that Symmetry for Health is a never-before-seen wave of healthcare. We are a lifelong program! Throughout your year here with us as you progress through your sessions, you’ll begin to realize why Symmetry is different. As an active participant in your healing process, you will learn how to maintain your posture and stay pain free. We give you the tools to use for the rest of our life to ensure you can keep your body pain free. Symmetry teaches you how to fix yourself. Even better, we have a lifetime program you can sign up for upon graduation. This program guarantees you a lifetime session every three months for the rest of your life. Even though, upon graduation, you have all the resources and tools to keep Symmetry a consistent part of your daily life, our lifetime program simply provides a checkup four times a year with our professionals. Our clients get better because they are given the tools to change bad habits into new healthy ones. We can do the exercises “scientific yoga” because they focus on the intrinsic (core) muscles, but in a very specific sequence based on your measurements. The change is immediate, and over time, long-term.
Symmetry Can Set You Straight!
In November of 2018, when I first got Kida, we could barely bring her outside of the house. Her fear was overwhelming, and she reacted anxiously to stressful environments. Now, Kida is my emotional support animal, and the Symmetry office dog. She is comfortable, stress-free, and happy. Our staff and our clients love her, because she radiates healthy energy. It took a year of hard work and dedication, but because of Kida’s willingness to fix herself, she can now live her life happy and healthy. Even after graduation, Kida and I still use the tools given to us by her trainer to continue to maintain her hard work. Kida is a wonderful example of how a program like ours can produce change for the better. With hard work, dedication, and willingness, our program proves life-changing. Symmetry can set you straight. Feel free to stop by our Symmetry office and say hello to Kida if you’re ever in need of some puppy love!
