Kinetic Chain Release (KCR) gently releases tension in key joints in the body using a protocol of specific stretches. This allows your body to release restrictions and return to its natural alignment. Your improved posture helps to re-establish balance and bring a sense of ease back into your everyday movements. This also positively affects other systems in your body systems like your digestion, or nervous system. This is because your body is more relaxed, so it can work more harmoniously and effectively. Patello femoral pain (PFP) syndrome is a common condition, with approximately one in 10 military recruits and one in 14 adolescents suffering at any one time; and one in five of the general population experiencing pain within the last year. Due to a paucity of evidence, uncertainty remains with regard to these estimates of incidence and prevalence, and further published or unpublished work is likely to revise our estimates. There is some consistency with data showing females are twice as likely to experience PFP as males. PFP is a very common pathology among adolescents, the general population, and those with high levels of activity, such as elite athletes and military population.
