What is S.T.A.R.?

Based on years of research, Patrick Mummy has developed S.T.A.R. (Success Through Alignment Restoration) Therapy®: A Neuromuscular Sequence of Corrective Postures™ (NSCP) proven to permanently eliminate pain and enhance physical performance!

There are over 350 STAR Postures, yet only those postures that address an individual’s unique compensations are used (a client may receive 50-60 in the course of their treatment).

Why Do I Need S.T.A.R. ?

We begin life with optimal posture and function, which enables our bodies to move effectively and efficiently around the force of Gravity. As a result of years of exposure to sedentary lifestyles, injuries, and “mal-adapted” movement patterns, optimal posture is forfeited and/or greatly compromised. At A Comfortable Place, we label this as System Breakdown, which eventually leads to inconsistent function, and more often, Chronic Pain!

S.T.A.R. reverses this System Breakdown by immediately changing your alignment to co-exist effectively with Gravity; and more importantly, gives you an easy home-management program to follow ensuring an active Pain-Free life forever!

How is S.T.A.R. Different ?

Unlike most other therapies or treatment modalities STAR actively attacks the cause of the problem, not the symptom--thereby offering permanent elimination of pain. STAR is non-invasive and does not use medications of any kind. The STAR program focuses on education. STAR clients are taught everything they need to apply the therapy to themselves independent of a practitioner. The client is aware, prepared, supported and empowered to complete their customized routines correctly and effectively. STAR can be done anywhere-- home to office to gym to hotel room and does not require special equipment or clothing.

What Does S.T.A.R. Help?

Chronic pain: Back, Sciatica, Neck, Hip and Knee, to name a few. Also, it will enhance physical performance, such as adding distance and accuracy to your golf game; speed, agility and endurance for running, and an increase in overall strength. Weight loss and an increase in energy is also an added benefit.

What is the S.T.A.R. Process?

STAR is a neuro-physiological process which re-educates and re-establishes structural integrity to the body.
1) STAR strips the bad habits from the body to get down to the initial cause of the body's pain.
2) STAR eliminates the cause of pain by providing the stimulus the body needs to restore strength and balance in that area.
3) STAR provides the body with sufficient, correct stimulus to rebuild "good habits," i.e., sufficient strength and balance in the muscular system to allow muscles to perform their intended role and function.
