21 DAY JOINT MOBILITY CHALLENGE

Performing CARs on a daily basis resists the progressive losses of joint health and mobility.

By intentionally moving each joint through its entirety of motion everyday and througout the day, you keep from losing motion by ensuring your brain software can perform the motion, and all the parts and pieces involved are able to do so. If you don't use it, you'll lose it. 

It has happened to everyone one of us. We made a seemingly simple movement, and TWINGE, pain coils around you like a python.

To ensure we can move into positions we need and use, we must consistently move into positions we need and use.

You cannot move where you cannot move, but if you have to move there, it is crucial you're able... ESPECIALLY if you move into a position unexpectedly, or are forced into a position suddenly (like during a slip or fall).

CARs equips your body with the knowledge to move into the positions your joints need to move into at any time, and at a moment notice. 

Injuries occur when tissues experience forces and positions they cannot tolerate. To mitigate injury, you must consistently expose each joint to a complete arsenal of movement. 

CARs ensures you maintain motion you need in the places you need it most. 

Movement is the ONLY process which vital fluids like blood, lymph, synovial, and cerebrospinal fluid are circulated to provide the joints, and its complex structures, with life giving nutrition. 

Because there are no "pumps" which circulate these crucial fluids that lubricate, feed, and detoxify the joint. Avascular fluids like lymph, synovial and spinal fluid are pumped through the joint via motion.

In order to ensure they can feed, clean, and nourish every nook and cranny, each joint must articulate into every nook and cranny.

CARs feed each joint healthy and nutritious articular motion each and every day.

Performing Controlled Articular Rotations on a daily basis empowers you with the knowledge, and tools, to care for your own aches and pains.

Long hours at work, and at the desk wreak havoc on our bodies, and make work more than just a pain in the neck, but actual neck pain.

CARs provides you with the ability to address, learn, and resolve simple stiffness that accompanies a rough night of sleep, or too many hours in one spot. 

If something is cranky, CARs helps you to respond and make it happy immediately, not until the next available chiropractic appointment. 

The brain, the spinal cord, and the local nerve endings need a constant reminder to maintain the link between the tissues that move your joints, and the nervous system that controls it. You either use it, or your brain prunes it.

Movement is a moment by moment process of selection where various levels of brain and neurological functions operate harmoniously to determine and choose the best "strategy" to perform a movement or task. 

The internal drivers of movement selection are mainly determined via the joint capsule, which provides 97% of the sensory feedback to the brain. 

Without joints that move well, your brain is unable to detect and select the best movement strategy for the best outcome. 

To move better, we must give the brain better tools to use (joints) to move.

The greater the degrees of freedom at a joint that can be controlled, the better the selection process the brain can use to refine how to move your body better. 

Human animation is a dance of complex subsystems working interdependently to create movement. 

Joint independence is the prerequisite to produce greater interdependence.

When an ankle doesn't do ankle stuff independently, it is unable to successfully contribute to the whole of movement as the ankle is required to contribute.

When a hip doesn't rotate, that hip is unable to do the necessary "hip things" a hip must do during movement.  

Healthy, usable, and complex movement  is a result of healthy joint independence.

Daily CARs practice ensures continued development of healthy joint independence. 

Daily CARs practice enriches total body movement ability, by highlighting the complex and detailed intricacies of each joint, and its ability to produce healthy movement options. 

As you practice CARs you are making your body smarter, by increasing its knowledge, and your conscience control, of every corner of your body. 

CARs are the foundation to ensuring robust refinement of detailed motor control throughout the body.
