- Overview

OUR PROCESS

We apply the Functional Patterns method using a four-step process to get to the root of your biomechanical imbalances that are impeding your quality of life. This process gets repeated as necessary to ensure that you are getting precise and customized programming according to what your body currently needs.

01 / Step One

POSTURE AND GAIT ASSESSMENT

Your initial consultation consists of a standing posture and slow-motion gait cycle (walking and running) analysis on a self-propelled treadmill. We will assess your imbalances which will provide us key insights to help guide your training based on what you need. We will periodically reassess your posture and gait throughout your training to modify the execution of the corrective techniques based on your body’s current holding patterns. Minimal clothing is required so that your spine and ribs are as visible as possible for analysis.

GUIDED SELF MYOFASCIAL RELEASE

We will teach you how to apply self-massage techniques using cheap and easily-obtainable tools such as lacrosse balls, soft balls, medicine balls, and PVC pipes. These techniques will alleviate points of tension and tightness in your muscles and fascia, which is the connective tissue found everywhere in your body. This sets the foundation for your body to be pliable and mobile enough to apply the corrective exercise techniques.

INTEGRATED CORRECTIVE EXERCISE

We will apply Functional Patterns patented chamber techniques and corrective exercises to apply enough stimulus to your tissues to fundamentally change your structure and movement. These techniques have been developed by founder Naudi Aguilar with the intention to replicate the mechanics of the best athletes in the world and upload these sequences to your body using slow, controlled movements. These techniques are extremely detailed and require a practitioner’s trained eye to execute properly to ensure maximum efficacy with minimal risk.

DYNAMIC EXERCISE

Once a base of movement has been established, you will be taught how to apply your newfound muscular connections dynamically with Functional Patterns dynamic exercises and functional activities such as kickboxing. This is where you realize the potential of your new movement capabilities and transfer them to real-world scenarios.
