OUR PROCESS
We take a structured, step-by-step approach to improving how your body moves.
Unlike physical therapy or personal training alone, our approach bridges both.
We combine clinical assessment with structured movement retraining. Each phase builds on the last so your results are sustainable, not temporary.
The goal isn’t just to reduce discomfort. It’s to help you move better, with more efficiency and confidence, for years to come.
Step 1
MANUAL THERAPY
Hands-on treatment helps reduce tightness, improve joint movement, and restore better alignment. This creates the foundation for lasting change.
Step 2
SELF-MYOFASCIAL RELEASE
We teach you simple techniques to support your progress between sessions. The goal is give you the tools to manage your body with confidence.
Step 3
MOVEMENT TRAINING
Using Functional Patterns–based training, we retrain posture and movement so your body works more efficiently. This means focusing on the basics: standing, walking, running, and throwing. These improvements carry into daily life.
Step 4
Independence
Once pain is reduced and movement quality has improved, clients may opt for a membership for ongoing training and progression.
What is functional patterns?
Functional Patterns is a movement-based system developed by Naudi Aguilar. It was designed to address a common issue in fitness and rehab: treating symptoms without correcting how the body actually moves.
Rather than isolating muscles or focusing only on pain, this approach looks at the body as a connected system. By improving posture and “the first four” movements: standing, walking, running, and throwing, we can address the root causes of recurring discomfort.
At Aligned Performance, these principles are applied through a clinical lens by a Doctor of Physical Therapy, ensuring each plan is individualized and grounded in sound movement science.
This isn’t a quick fix. It’s a structured process focused on long-term strength, efficiency, and independence.
