Encompasses a wide range of topics including the mechanics of gait, manual therapy studies, book recommendations, exercises for self-treatment, and discussions on the psoas muscle and vagus nerve stimulation. It reflects a deep dive into bodywork, offering insights from Esty’s experience and client interactions, along with significant findings from scientific and technology-oriented publications.

Motion of the Arms in Gait

Highlights the biomechanical synergy between arm and leg movements in gait, focusing on cross-lateral integration for stability and movement efficiency, and suggests exercises to enhance this natural coordination.

Sphenoid-Occiput/Atlas/Axis Complex

Exploring the biomechanics of the sphenoid-occiput-atlas-axis complex, emphasizing its role in neck function and the importance of alignment for activating natural motor systems

Auditory Optimization

explores exercises for auditory enhancement, focusing on sound localization and mid-frequency sounds to improve spatial awareness and communication, countering the auditory limitations of modern environments​

Prebiotics

emphasizes the importance of prebiotics for gut health, recommending Chlorella, Spirulina, and other fiber-rich foods to nourish beneficial bacteria, improve digestion, nutrient absorption, and lower inflammation risk​

Using the Sprike App in Movement Education

explores the Sprike app's benefits in movement education, particularly for correcting patterns and reducing musculoskeletal issues, through immediate feedback, enhancing physical therapy and sports performance​

Collagen and Vitamin C

discusses vitamin C's essential role in collagen synthesis for connective tissue health, emphasizing its necessity for skin, cartilage, and preventing scurvy by aiding collagen stability and resilience

Vision Optimization

advocates for improving visual acuity with exercises tailored to combat the effects of screen use and urban living, suggesting regular practice with eye-tracking exercises for enhanced vision and cognitive benefits​

Reflex Integration and Sprike

connects Sprike scores, indicating movement smoothness, with reflex integration, suggesting higher scores reflect better reflex efficiency. It explores reflexes as key to survival and skill, proposing Sprike feedback as a tool for enhancing...

Defining the Gravity Line of the Body

challenges traditional posture concepts, emphasizing dynamic movement through "Kinsegrity." This principle promotes efficient, natural movement and standing, minimizing wear by aligning the body to better absorb and distribute energy

Ergonomics of Shoe Design
