Proprioception naturally decreases with age, with injury, and with chronic pain…

“Proprioception” is often defined as “the ability to feel your body in space.”

And while it’s true that being able to sense your different body parts in relation to each other and the space you’re in is a part of it, proprioception is so much more than that.

It’s also your ability to feel and release tension, effort level, coordination, engagement, weakness, and so much more.

And we’ve got a saying at Innerstellar: You’ve got to feel it to heal it.

That means that developing your proprioception - especially in weak or injured parts of your body - is THE number 1 key to healing your pain.

Unfortunately, proprioception naturally decreases with age.

It also decreases with injury and chronic pain. It’s your body’s coping mechanism: feeling constant pain sucks away all your attention and makes it impossible to get anything done - so your body shuts down your ability to feel areas that tend to be in pain.

That’s why if you have low back pain or an S.I. Joint injury, you might not be able to feel much in your pelvic floor. Or if you’ve got chronic neck and shoulder tension, your upper back might feel shut down.

But you can’t numb sensations selectively. So while this coping mechanism is effective in the short term, in the long term it interferes with your ability to use your movement practice to get to the root of the problem.

Don’t worry - there IS a way to improve your proprioception and keep it sharp as you age - and we can teach you how to do it in an accessible way.

In fact, developing your proprioception is Step 1 in the 4-Step Movement Medicine Method we use to help our clients heal chronic pain, find comfort in their bodies, and continue to do the things they LOVE as they age.

So far we’ve only ever taught this 4-step signature system to our teacher trainees and our VIP private clients (who pay upwards of $16k per year for this level of care, consistency, and customization).

So we’re absolutely THRILLED to be able to offer you MOVEMENT MEDICINE: The 12-week chronic pain freedom lab for only $3k (Or $1111 x 3 with a payment plan).

Marisha will be guiding a cohort of seekers through this process starting the first week of March. We don’t know when we’ll be able to offer this program again.
