​ELDOA is a system of exercises used to create more space through your spine, as well as in the peripheral joints. It's used to help relieve back pain and correct posture. Created by French Osteopath Guy VOYER, DO, each exercise takes only a minute to do. It's simple and effective.
​
In an ELDOA class, after a warmup, we'll do a series of ELDOA postures, working to hold each one for up to 1 minute. Each posture is targeted at one joint, through the spine, the shoulders, the hip, the ribs. You use your own strength to create a little bit more space in the joint which will help to keep the joint well lubricated, moving well, and will help to reduce pain in the body. 

​

ELDOA postures are found in Yoga for Back Health
classes here in The Loft. Sign up on the schedule.

Pile of stones

For many years I have experienced discomfort in the thoracic region from a scoliosis — at times it's been most uncomfortable.

​

I started practicing ELDOA™ with Jennifer Snowdon this fall.

My back is straighter and I rarely have pain anymore.
