Now, think of the body as a complete connected and integrated whole unit, where one area can affect another unrelated area and by the same token, correcting one area of mis alignment can have profound changes to the symptomatic area.

If the neck becomes tight you may experience tingling into the hands or even headaches both of these situations may occur because the muscles have become tight and this can pull onto other structures or bones and nerves, this situation can actually cause any number of different types of symptoms or pains.

The muscles can be released creating a better length for them and more elasticity. This would be like you undoing the knots in an elastic band allowing the band to return to its normal length. Once the muscles have eased your posture will feel more corrected and aligned. At the same time pressure on the nerves and other structures will be reduced which has the benefit of relieving any underlying pain. The muscle alignment technique does this using the bodies own inner intelligence as it resets to its natural state with ease and without force or heavy pressure.
