The ELDOA are postural exercises (LOADS, the English acronym) that you can perform yourself. The primary goal is to release the space within a joint. This increased space between the joints will lead to improvement in joint mechanics and help unlock your bodies mobility.

From high level athletes to aging bodies ELDOA is right for anyone that want to decrease bodily pain and feel better.

BENEFITS OF ELDOA ARE

All of the benefits of ELDOA can be tied to its utilization of myofascial tension during the performance of the postures. The pulling of the fascia helps to normalize the placement of the internal structures, allowing the body to return to its healthy structure.

What is Fascia? The Fascia is the connective tissue that covers and links every organ, muscle, and bone together within the body. By creating myofascial tension, the entire fascia is utilized to encourage the internal structures to self-normalize.

Long-term Benefits In order to get the most out of the postures performed in ELDOA, you must develop good awareness, or proprioception, of the body. By creating movement that pushes different parts of a joint into different directions, you are able to build awareness of that area in the body. All postures in ELDOA utilize this action of separation, making repeated performance of the postures an effective way of heightening one’s proprioception. The more this awareness is developed, the better one can perform the postures and derive the most benefits.

One of the most common reasons adults seek medical care (1), has been linked to restrictions in mobility and daily activities (2,3), dependence on opioids (4), anxiety and depression (2), and poor perceived health or reduced quality of life (2,3).

Why You Should Incorporate ELDOA Into Your Fitness Routine

A great article featuring Scott Herrera of legacyperformwell.com and Ashelii Rabelo of somaeducationalgroup.com

I felt so good after taking my first ELDOA class that I immediately wanted it in my life full-time. I felt taller like I’d been stretched out on a rack, opening up my joints and spacing out my spine.

If you’re looking to incorporate mobility and injury prevention into your 2018 goals, ELDOA is a great place to start. Developed by French osteopath Guy VOYER (yes, his legal name is in all caps), ELDOA is an acronym from French words, which in English translate to longitudinal osteoarticular decoaptation stretches. “Osteoarticular” means bones and joints, “decoaptation” means opening, and ELDOA is the name of both the method and the postures involved.

Each posture, or ELDOA, is carefully designed to “create space” within a precise joint or a segment of the spine using myofascial tension and muscle contraction. By creating myofascial tension (tension in the fascia), the ELDOA can affect the tissue, ligaments, nervous tissues, and organs associated with that joint or spinal segment. There are ELDOAs for the spine, shoulders, hips, ribs, and skull.

Getting into the postures isn’t hard, but holding them feels challenging, and precision is important. Scott Herrera, director of the ELDOA program and lead instructor at Legacy Sport and Wellness Center in Dallas, says a common sentiment among first-time ELDOA students is “that’s one of the hardest workouts I’ve ever done and I feel amazing afterwards.”
