Scapular stabilization and mobility - A different Perspective by Joel Crandall Looking at things differently form a Structural Joint Balancing perspective by Joel Crandall - Kinesiologist and Exercise Physiologist and creator of the VOILA Method for Structural Joint Balancing. So many articles or blogs are written about scapular mobility and stabilization. Studying it's movement. I Honestly, do not understand this fascination and/ or what the clinical importance is your asse

The Relational Inhibition Myth Seems many are having difficulty grasping this concept and with good reason. Its a Myth. IF you are doing “muscle” to “muscle” testing (which I consider the lowest on the totem pole of AK) Then you will be confused, frustrated an chasing your tail. The fact that you found 23 muscles to one dysfunction should have been your first clue that the relational inhibition in GLOBAL. There are No relational patterns Now, If you Choose to use Relational

""The movement" does not exist. EVERY time your body executes a movement it develops a completely new plan with which to accomplish it. There are no patterns...and if you utilize your time trying to find them, you are chasing ghosts." Dr Andreo Spina YES YES YES!! Thank You Dr Andreo Spina "your nervous system will execute the movement via a different pattern/path each and every time (NO PATTERNS)...this is PROVEN. See the work of Latash, Bernstein, and many many others..." D

Before I delve into this post I want to first explain what Voila is. This description is taken from their website Voila Method “VOILA Method of Structural Joint Balancing is new innovative way of helping the body in healing itself! We Assess, Correct and SYNC the Whole Body by creating Symmetry of the Cranial and Skeletal Keystones of Structure through Joint Balancing Movements to create Dynamic Kinesthetic Stability, eliminate PAIN and dysfunctions while Restoring the Body’s

NO Muscle Patterns seems to confuse many Bodyworkers as they been taught to look for ”Muscle Patterns.” You have seen people argue GAIT and some say there is No 'perfect' GAIT. I ask: Is each step you take while you walk exactly the same? Is each step the same length? Same pace? Why? Better yet, Why Not?? Remember, we have Fast twitch & Slow twitch muscles moving at different paces to coordinate the same tasks at specific given time. If same Neural pathway is giving for the f

Joel Crandall - Kinesiologist & Exercise Physiologist. MOVEMENT: "Movement Masters," Bodyworkers & Trainers, Yoga & Pilates Instructors, etc… WHAT IF we have been teaching people to Move Incorrectly all these Years?? Would you be Upset? Would you be willing to Learn WHY? Ever Wonder WHY your Client has Shoulder/Neck Pain after a work out? OR Hip & Low Back Pain? For so long we been teaching people to use their muscles to move. We teach them to use the BIG muscles of the S

There are NO Muscle Patterns!! I demo this in the VOILA Method Seminars but here is a Great article (No Author to credit) but they understand and Get it!! "The human movement system is a very complicated one. In any movement that a human performs, almost never are the same muscles or patterns of movement replicated. Changes in velocity, positioning, loads, etc. can basically transform a specific movement and its stressors into a whole different creation. Squatting is a fundam

The bodywork field is still on muscles and fascia and forgetting the basics of life and physiology! We have to stop thinking muscles or fascia in order to truly help our clients. Otherwise clients will repeatedly come in for the same issues over and over again. In human movement, we are all just Electricity of closed circuits flow, pumps and valves Break down the Atoms and cells (+, - and Neutron) is my definition of Electricity and All things made up of these three things.

VOILA Method for Structural Joint Balancing works because we increase the signal intensity throughout the entire Body!!!!! This is AMAZING so You can See HOW VOILA is working! It creates better flow and Signal Intensity! It's not about training to be Stronger or working on muscles to get out of pain. It's about increasing signal intensity throughout the Body!! Anyone have access to imaging like this?? I want to do this with VOILA! http://circleofdocs.com/amazing-video-shows-c

You may have heard that Structure dictates Function and, it seems, like to argue these basic biologic points in their Newtonian Brain. Structure Dictates Function is not NEW. Its cellular Biology 101. “If structure does not tell us anything about function, it only means we have not looked at it correctly.” Albert Szent-Györgyi It is ALL around you. Its everything you see (and don't see) The atoms which make up the molecules which make up the wood/aluminium/etc.....which make
