What is Structural Medicine?

Structural Medicine is a customized evaluation, treatment and collaborative team approach to an individual’s unique health issues. Distinctive to the field of structural integration, Structural Medicine directly addresses specific pathologies, painful complaints, and movement dysfunctions. It bridges well-established and proven evaluation tools found in mainstream medicine, such as strength, range-of-motion, and postural assessment, with the latest scientific developments in alternative treatment therapies—manual therapy, myofascial release, movement education and neuromuscular re-education, energetics, and dialogue.
