In this 5th video on The Meeks Method® for the Management of Osteoporosis, Sara Meeks and Kristina Bramlett present the Strengthening and Lengthening exercises of The Re-Alignment Routine. Except for the Leg Lengthener, all the exercises are isometric which means contracting muscles without joint movement. These exercises focus on key stability areas so that you can then proceed into more flexibility in a safe and therapeutic way.
Sara Meeks PT, MS, GCS, KYT, specializes in the management of patients with low bone mass (osteopenia) and skeletal fragility (osteoporosis) since 1984, Sara Meeks developed an evidence-based 12-part program designed to prevent, arrest or reverse the Patterns of Postural Change. Now with over 50 years of experience in physical therapy, Sara holds regular seminars to teach her guidelines for physical therapy management, exercise classes, yoga, Pilates, and other fitness programs, qualifying them as S.A.F.E. (Skeletally Appropriate For Everyone).

For those of you newly diagnosed or otherwise with osteoporosis, I have been doing this routine for 2 weeks and cannot believe how much better I feel. Just listening to Sara speak is comforting but these videos are really helpful. Thank you to Bob Brad and Sara and I hope there will be more videos of this.

I have no idea what o o is complaining and being so negative about. If I understand correctly this is one portion of what we should be doing in terms of caring for our osteoporosis. Sara has said do a variety of exercises including, body weight resistance work, brisk walking and odd and random impact being best for bones. Sara thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us all.

This was very helpful and what I was looking for. I’ve been doing the reset and it has relaxed my back and helped with tension, especially in the lower back. Glad to now add these exercises for the muscles along the spine. I was doing them as she was explaining and really liked the leg lengthening one!

@lisac7752 2 жыл бұрын

I've been doing these exercises for several months now except for the leg lengthening one. For some reason, my back hurts the next day. May be due to bulging discs in my lower back. But the other 3 work well for me. Thank you, Sara, I look forward to more of your videos.

Shall definitely be giving these exercise a try as curious what the outcome will be due; have one hip slightly higher than the other (as so did my Mother/Grand and Great Grandmothers as well as my only daughter does) however no adjustments in footwear has ever been suggested and our gait appears to have been normal until in my case of a few fractures that has definitely affected such and my posture.

Thank you for this detailed demonstration! If I understand correctly, decompression and realignment and strengthening important muscles along the spine are meant to prevent or reduce the risk of compression fracture, correct? What I’m unclear on is whether these exercises are able to improve the composition of the bone itself, in terms of bone quantity, quality and strength? Would love to get clarity on this! Thank you again, Sara, Bob and Brad! 😊

I did email her as well, asking for the handouts she’d offered to us if we emailed her requesting them. I haven’t heard from her. So, I’m wondering if you could perhaps ask Sara my question above, in the event you’ll do another Q&A video with her? Just an idea. 😊

This video is embarrasing. I've been 50+ years in this business. CM comment below said it nicely. This has NOTHING to do with strenghtening bone among other things. So much wrong here. This here is an example of what medicine has become. She has the nerve to copyright this. Give me a break. Finally I must ask ...this person being a healthcare profesional...does she look like she takes care of herself. Give me a break
