BEHAVIORAL

Exercise program PERMANENTO inspired by developmental kinesiology

The intervention is based on activation of reflexive movement patterns which ensures the original reflexive control of strength, mobility and stability. After birth, we cannot control our body movements - they are reflexes "hard-wired" into our brains and vitally important for proper development of our body (muscular system, vestibular system, sensory system, cardiovascular system or digestive system) as well as our brain and nervous systems. During early childhood, everything becomes integrated and works perfectly according to the original design. But this design is slowly abandoned due to for example sedentary lifestyle and replaced by compensatory movement patterns that are making us weaker and defective with all the consequences that are becoming more severe as we age. The aim is restore the original design and improve posture and other crucial components of functional fitness and move better and more.
