Aleena Kanner - spreading awareness of the transformative benefits of Postural Restoration

Postural Restoration Therapist and Certified Athletic Trainer

As a child and young adult, I deeply immersed myself in the world of gymnastics, actively participating from the ages of 15 to 22. As time marched on, I ventured into a new athletic realm, wholeheartedly embracing Olympic Weightlifting, where I had success as a competitor in the 53kg weight category.

However, the demanding world of high-level athleticism began to take its toll on my body, and I made the decision to retire at age of 27. This phase of my life turned out to be a significant learning adventure, offering me valuable insights into both my personal well-being and the idea of healing.

During this time, Postural Restoration, alongside holistic medicine, emerged as crucial elements in my journey. They directed me towards more effective methods and approaches that eventually paved the way for my healing and recovery, adding a brighter chapter to my story.
