DNS High Kneeling

The various clinical conditions that affect the lower extremity such as bunions, plantar fasciitis, achilles tendinitis, patello-femoral syndrome, IT band syndrome, and hip impingement often have one thing in common: the inability to stabilize the trunk and pelvis on a stable foot. Research has taught us the open kinetic chain strengthening exercises rarely improves the problem because stability and motor control have very little to do with the anatomical strength of any muscle or group of muscles. These clinical conditions of the lower extremities that can have a significant impact up into the back, shoulders and neck have to be addressed by improving function and the quality of movement and stabilization of the entire kinetic chain. Training in the High Kneeling developmental position is an excellent strategy for correcting these very common and often debilitating conditions.
