ELDOA

“Fascia is the link, it is the link between all structures of the body making the body a global structure.”

– Guy Voyer DO

6 Levels of the ELDOA Certification Program

The goal of the ELDOA education program is to educate the students at a higher level and improve the application of the exercise. This is accomplished by focusing more time on building a better foundation of knowledge set by Guy VOYER, DO and respecting his educational paradigm for learning. Because of this, students are able to increase their capacity to incorporate more advanced coaching methods to test, evaluate, and treat with better comprehension and understanding of educational principles to correct the body.

ABOUT ELDOATM

The ELDOATM are postural exercises (LOADS) that you can do yourself with the primary goal being to increase the space within a chosen articulation. As the ELDOATM “create” space, there is an improvement in joint mechanics, increased blood flow, reduced pressure on the discs, a reduction of pain, spinal disc rehydration, better muscle tone, improved posture, and a sense of well being and awareness. The human spine is a complicated and vital structure. Compression and articular blocks can cause pain, arthritis and neurological conditions. The ELDOATM postures are a highly effective solution to these conditions. The ELDOATM are very precise postures that target a specific joint region to provide relief from pain and restore balance.

French osteopath

Designed by French osteopath, Guy VOYER, DO, the ELDOATM utilize myofascial stretching to put tension around a primary lesion making it the center of “separating forces.” The myofascial tension solicits a postural normalization in a specific joint resulting in numerous benefits.
LOADS (Longitudinal Osteo-articular Decoaptation Stretches – the English acronym) are postural self-normalizing techniques, which aim at widening the space within a pair of joints. It is possible in one minute a day to relieve disc compression between L5-S1 or even more specifically at the base of the long arm of the left sacroiliac joint.

Credit Level:
Certified ELDOA Trainer

Length of course:
5 days

COURSE DESCRIPTION:
ELDOA Exercises for the Pelvis: Sacroiliac Joint & Pubic Symphysis ELDOA Level 4 is a comprehensive approach to the pelvis, understanding its anatomy and
tensegrity biomechanics. Students will be introduced to the osteopathic view of the pelvis and its global and analytical relationship with the body. This
educational foundation will set the learning, praticing, testing & application for the ELDOA exercises.
