=== Structural Integration === {{Main|Structural integration}} [[Structural Integration]]'s aim is to unwind the strain patterns in the body's myofascial system, restoring it to its natural balance, alignment, length and ease. This is accomplished by hands-on manipulation, coupled with movement re-education.
