Self-manage neck and back problems
ISOGAI Dynamic Therapy
(IDT), also known as the “Binding legs Technique”, emphasises on the usage of Isogai Alignment Belts to bind both legs for dynamic balances of human structure, where the spine is in its correct position in the spinal column.
The technique was discovered by renowned Japanese osteopath Dr Kimiyoshi Isogai in the 1950s.
He has written over 200 books on IDT, explaining the importance of keeping the human spine in proper alignment.
As part of the central nervous system, the spinal cord passes vertically through the spine together with major nerves supplies.
Any change in the spine’s position will impede nerves supplies and affect the body’s natural mechanism process.
Incorrect habits such as crossing legs, slouching and slumping while sitting, hunching and rounding up shoulder would lead to leg length discrepancies and uneven pelvis, which will eventually result to distorted spine.
A discrepancy in leg length forces a side of the pelvis to lift higher to accommodate the longer leg and this position will cause the spine to tilt.
Meanwhile, the pelvis acts as a base to hold the spine upright and allows full flexibility for it to move according to its centre of balance.
If the pelvis is uneven, the spine will tilt to a certain direction.
The bending of the spine from its natural curvature will cause uneven compression surrounding the spine, which in return cause discomforts.
Muscles, ligaments and tendons will be consistently tensed, resulting in muscular skeletal disorder (MSD) or commonly known as neck and back pain discomfort.
IDT is a self-managed therapy to neck and back pains.
Users are guided to practise a series of correct physical movements by binding legs, using Isogai’s tools such as the MOB Back Healer that works with the Isogai Alignment Belts for back and leg problems, the MOB Neck Healer that also work with the Isogai Alignment Belts for neck and shoulder problem and the MOB Knees And Legs Therapeutic Bench for knees and legs problems.
IDT has been well known and accepted in Japan and Taiwan for the last 60 years.
Its success is attributed to its practical, effective and safe techniques that everyone can practise on a daily basis.
IDT in Malaysia is promoted through public seminars and users are given training to acquire the know-how.
