This is why everywhere you look you still see people trying to extend the body somehow and push everything backwards.  

 Honestly, does that work? 

 Many assume that just because the bone gets stuck forward this means its causes the body to fall forward, so you have to push the person backwards to correct it, right? No, that just pushes it more the wrong way.

 Actually everyone in body work is somehow making this same mistake. If you look at this picture, you’ll see that in fact, the spine compensates by pulling itself back into a reversal pattern, which you can clearly see in the image. Even a body that is stuck forward at an almost horizontal angle has this reversal pattern contained in it somewhere.  Essentially, the body is locked in a pathological extended position with the core being stuck forward, that’s what we see at the center of this reversal pattern is the underlying collapsed structure. So how is pushing the body more in extension going to solve this problem? If you understand opposing forces, you will know that extension will drive this core problem further in the wrong direction. Most techniques don’t even realize they are actually causing more extension/flexion pathologies to appear. You can see they are all pushing the body in that direction and the core gets pushed inwards even more.  

 So why do most methods aimed at fixing this issue still involve pushing against the collapse area with the body in extension?  

 Wouldn’t that just worsen the reversal? The answer is. 

 It Absolutely does.  

 And yet, that’s what practitioners are still doing. Some apply gentle pressure while the body is in extension; others use high-velocity thrusts or brute force which throws the spine over the fulcrum into a whipping extension movement.  

 So which of these approaches are correct? 

 The answer is neither.

You can see people have been jumping into peoples arms and chest and damaged the practitioners and their clients bodies only forming reversal in those areas. Especially the upper thoracic. And the side effect symptoms caused the need for this second rib yank that only exacerbated the reversal even more. It’s like taking a larger drink to deal with the ill effects of the last drink. 

 You cannot correct a problem caused by forward misalignment by extending the spine and applying pressure. This only worsens the collapse, pushing the spine further out of alignment and deepening the reversal pattern. 

 Why, then, do people still do it? It’s because when the body is in extension and pressure is applied, it creates an easy “crack” sound. That satisfying noise is why many think the technique is effective, even though it’s pushing the body in the wrong direction. Even people can lean themselves in extension and create the same cracking noises. This is just jamming vertebrae together in extension always leads to buckling and further collapse in the forward direction even with the slightest amount of extension and applying pressure it will go the wrong way every time, its so subtle that you have to train yourself to see the mistake thats happening in these extension movements that everyone is doing.  

 You’d think this would be an obvious error, but the problem is subtle: the body adapts to the reversal pattern. When you increase the reversal, it can give the illusion of improvement—the person may appear to stand straighter, and their muscles may even feel stronger. But this is a short-lived illusion. The structure will eventually collapse under its own strain, often causing even more pain. 

 So, how do you fix the vertebrae stuck at the center of this reversal? 

 First, avoid extension at all costs. 

 Correction should happen in the opposite direction, with the body in flexion. But there’s a challenge: the spine is often jammed, wedged at odd angles, and surrounded by tense muscles that resist movement. The body fights hard to prevent further collapse, so applying external pressure is futile. Pushing from the outside, no matter how forcefully or gently, only drives the structure deeper into the wrong direction. This is why traditional techniques fail—they inadvertently worsen the collapse. 

However, there is a way to get a correction movement. But only one way. Not many ways. Just one! 

 As it turns out. The right corrective force and its application are extremely elusive if you know how to do it. Every movement needs consideration about its accuracy. It’s no wonder no one has found a way to do it in the past.  

 As it is completely counterintuitive to the way body correction methods have been doing it. 

 The key to achieving true body correction lies in working within the confines of opposing forces to create stability, there’s even a lateral force to make matters more complex. So, trying to take all of these forces into account simultaneously is much easier said than done.  

 In fact, many of the rewards you get when manipulating these forces seem to come from doing things the wrong way. 

 When you treat the body incorrectly, you might unintentionally fuel the underlying problem, driving it in the wrong direction and at the same time reinforcing the body’s compensatory measures and get some positives effects even though they are essentially worse.  

 Stranger yet, you may even create an entirely new compensation pattern by also pushing things wrong. These compensations or bodily counter-measures, though temporarily effective, are pathological. —These quick, outward pressure-based techniques may seem to fix the issue, but they only deepen the reversal pattern or worsen the core problem over time. It can be misleading because everything tells you that you’re on the right track, but you’re reinforcing an unstable compensation pattern, which is ultimately harmful. 

 The challenge with body correction whether traditional or modern approaches that claim to be doing something different are all actually only concerned with pushing force on the outside of the body and contained within each and every one of these techniques are movements of the body that will always create or manipulate compensations or cause new collapses themselves. Techniques that do not are practically non-existent.  

 And doing things that don’t create more problems are counterintuitive. Pushing any force on the outside of the body just doesn’t work. No matter what angle or amount of force you apply. 

And this should be self-evident. 

We already know that outside force doesn’t work. If it did, body correction techniques would be far more respected than they are today. Even a lot of body correction therapist doubt that body therapy can resolve most issues and are looking for alternatives outside of their body correction techniques.  

Which is understandable because as it stands, no one seems to have developed a body correction method that doesn’t involve creating more structural collapses, or enhancing compensations, or worsening reversal patterns just to move pressure around and cause some temporary relief. 

Essentially what this means is every existing method seems to contain some parasitic forces that undermine long-term stability. 

You must distinguish a correction movement against, a movement that is only creating a counter measure against these forces. 

Hydro Structural creates a precise internal compression from the torso of the persons body, these hydraulic tissues are contained within highly elastic tissues and there are other forces that are highly bio-energetic almost magnetic in a way that we simply utilize in a systematic way to make corrections from the inside of the torso that pushes outwardly. 

 “The correction contact primarily occurs at the person’s abdomen, but the forces can extend throughout the entire torso, applying a systematic movement of force (or the spirit of those forces and their energies) whether they were created hydraulically or through elasticity. This force, (or rather the dynamic flow of pushing and pulling vortices this maneuver utilizes.) directly targets the vertebral bodies and adjacent ribs at the core of the collapsed areas—all at once. When applied correctly, this method eliminates parasitic and resistance forces, allowing the opposing forces to align at the same angle (which is crucial). It’s almost as if the body pulls itself back into place, similar to how a magnet aligns itself in a poloidal direction.” 

 The torso being the key area in the natural design to make correction movements from.  

 “The major mistake in body manipulation has always been they always utilizes your arms and the rib cage and a fulcrum on the back of the spine, and they then try to push pressure into the body. Is has been the crucial error. These are all resistant areas of the body. It is so unnaturally tiresome and damaging to push forces into these body parts for everyone involved. It’s going against the natural mechanics of the body in more ways than you might be aware of.” 

 “We must utilize the Torso. This is in line with nature, the more you learn about crystallization and bio hydraulics. The input of the correcting forces is multiplied 10x allowing for a smooth steady, natural movement.” 

Outside force will never work. You get one good thing happening while you cause ten other problems. 

 Just take a good look at how that vertebra is sandwiched in the middle of that reversal. 

 “There is one correct way to move it back. That’s it.” 

 This kind of correction cannot be achieved through outside force. It’s impossible. That’s why so far, the best body treatments may offer temporary relief or new counter measures but ultimately fail. They cannot address the deeper issue at hand. 

True correction is about working with the body’s natural forces—not against them—and when you do that, the results speak for themselves. 

 The truth is there is only one way to make this correction without aggravating the collapse, and it’s been discovered. The Hydro-Structural approach teaches you how to correct the spine without causing more damage. The results are remarkable seeing this process in action is mind-blowing, and you’ll likely wonder why no one thought of this sooner. 

 You won’t succeed by relying on outside force, nor by pushing the body into extension. Just look at how jammed that vertebrae is in extension—it simply won’t work. Save yourself years of frustration and ineffective treatment. Once you learn the proper correction technique, you’ll achieve more stable, long-lasting results that improve your clients’ health—and yours—without creating new collapses or reversals. 

 This method is also gentler on your body. Trying to force new reversals into the spine is not only exhausting for practitioners, but it’s also harmful to your clients. If you knew the damage you were causing, you would stop immediately. The reason it’s so hard on both practitioner and client is that it goes against the body’s natural mechanics. The goal should not be to make the spine crack or to induce new compensations in the hope that they alleviate symptoms. The real objective is total body correction. 

 When you use the right approach, corrections happen effortlessly. The debate ends when you start seeing these kinds of results. 

 The tension between opposing forces—one pulling the body into pathological extension, the other into pathological flexion—can be resolved. When you get it right, the body supports itself naturally, without battling opposing forces. And that’s when true stability is achieved. The Hydro Structural way.
