The 6 Green Zones: A Blueprint for Lifelong Movement Health

As we age, our bodies naturally begin to lose symmetry, muscle activation, and control—often leading to pain, injury, and a reduced quality of life. But what if there was a simple way to identify the areas most prone to breaking down—and a clear path to restoring their function?

Welcome to the 6 Green Zones.

What Are the 6 Green Zones?

The 6 Green Zones are key regions in the body that play a critical role in posture, movement, and overall stability. These zones often fall out of balance with age, injury, or inactivity—but when optimized, they can dramatically reduce your risk of pain and degeneration.

Through a series of targeted tests, we assess:

  • Symmetry between the left and right sides of the body

  • Muscle activation and firing patterns

  • Joint stability and neuromuscular control

These tests give us a snapshot of how well your body is moving and compensating—and more importantly, where it’s breaking down.

Why It Matters

Most patients experience a powerful “aha” moment during the Green Zone assessment. It just makes sense—finally, there’s a clear explanation for their discomfort or movement limitations. Even more importantly, it provides a strategy to restore what’s lost, not just treat the symptoms.

By focusing on these six foundational areas, we can create a personalized plan to:

  • Improve your movement efficiency

  • Reduce chronic pain and risk of re-injury

  • Slow the aging process in your joints and tissues

  • Support your long-term healthspan and performance

What Happens Next?

After your assessment, we build a targeted strategy to reactivate underperforming muscles, improve coordination, and bring balance back to your system. This isn’t a cookie-cutter approach—it’s a tailored solution based on how your bodyis functioning.

The Goal: Longevity Through Movement

Movement is medicine—and the 6 Green Zones are your diagnostic tool for preserving it. Whether you’re an athlete, recovering from injury, or just want to move and feel better as you age, this test is the first step toward lifelong mobility and independence.
