We often talk about the body’s capacity to heal and perform, but today we celebrate its capacity to simply be. To hug loved ones, to share a meal, to laugh until your sides ache, and to rest in the company of family and friends.

This is the "right work" for today: presence, connection, and gratitude.

From our team to yours, we wish you a Thanksgiving filled with meaningful moments and the quiet strength of gratitude.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Wrist & Elbow Pain Often Starts Elsewhere: Here’s Where to Look

Ever wonder why wrist or elbow pain keeps coming back, even after stretches or braces? The answer might surprise you—it often doesn’t start in your wrists or elbows at all.

Wrist and elbow pain is typically just the final stop in a long chain reaction that often starts with seemingly small imbalances in your posture and movement that throw your entire body out of alignment.

When your foundation is off, other areas are forced to compensate, and that's when your wrists and elbows (the "messengers") start sending pain signals. You can stretch or brace them, but you're only silencing the messenger, not fixing the source.

In this month's article, hear an Egoscue therapist's personal story of how she stopped chasing the symptom and finally found lasting relief.

How The Egoscue Method Helps You Breathe Better (and Feel Better)

Take a deep breath and notice how your body responds. If your shoulders lifted, you've just been given powerful feedback. That’s not a sign that you're breathing 'wrong'—it’s an invitation to unlock a new level of well-being.

You don’t need to learn how to breathe—you already know. Breathing better is about removing barriers. The secret comes from using your posture to support your breath, not hinder it - so your body can do its job perfectly, just as it was designed to. When you restore your body's natural alignment, you free your breath. This is the key to finally easing that stubborn muscle tension, calming your mind, and unlocking the effortless energy you've been missing.

The Case of the Aching Back: Why the Usual Suspect May Be Innocent

Most people assume back pain means something is “wrong” with the spine—but what if your back is just the victim, not the culprit? Melissa’s story will sound familiar: scans showed nothing conclusive, injections gave only temporary relief, and yet the pain kept creeping back into her daily life. The real mystery? Her back wasn’t broken—it was simply overworked.

Back pain isn’t always what it seems. Hidden imbalances in the hips, glutes, shoulders, and even ankles often force the spine to take on more than its fair share, creating a cycle of strain and discomfort. The good news is, you can break that cycle. With simple, posture-based strategies that restore balance and reduce stress, you can finally close the case on back pain and move with confidence again.

Out of Alignment: The Hidden Cause of Knee Pain—and How to Fix It

Think your knee pain is just about your knees? Often, it’s not the joint itself that’s the problem—it’s how your body is compensating for misalignments elsewhere.

This month’s article explores the common causes of knee pain and how everyday imbalances—from your hips to your feet—can quietly overload your knees and lead to chronic discomfort. You’ll learn how small, strategic changes to posture and movement can relieve stress on your joints and help you move with greater ease.

It’s not about pushing through pain—it’s about working with your body, gently and wisely, to help it do what it’s designed to do: move with strength, balance, and resilience.

If you’re dealing with knee pain, you’re not alone. Whether it’s a dull ache during everyday tasks or sharp pain during activity, knee discomfort is one of the most common complaints across all ages and activity levels. While it’s easy to assume the issue lies in the knee itself, the pain is...
