What is the Elaine Petrone Miracle Ball Method?About the Method
"A Neurological Tool - A tool for your brain to feel a part of your Body." EPM trains your nervous system whereas most exercise programs focus on moving your muscles. EPM believes that in order to get the muscles to move easily without pain, the secret lies in training the brain to regain feeling in key parts of the body. A Body Dialogue is emphasized. This reciprocal communication of body to brain gives us the potential to experience movement integrating all parts of the body. Stress is then lifted from chronic pain areas of your body. Common areas of pain are low back, hips, shoulders, neck just to name a few. EPM is not a traditional exercise program. Most of the directions are the complete opposite. Where exercise is designed to build your muscle tone, EPM is designed to reduce excess tension in your muscles. Excess tension can be the result of accidents, daily stress, or misalignment issues like scoliosis, or poor posture. Once this excess muscle tension is relieved you will find you have more freedom of movement and improved circulation. Your muscles become more supple. You will sense more parts of your body. Breathing improves. Feeling this allows your bodies innate sense of balance to realign you. "I had thought if I worked harder my pain would go away. I discovered that by overworking my body incorrectly I was more vulnerable to increased pain and injury. " Elaine Petrone Read Elaine's story here |
