The Aston Paradigm is an evolution of realizations by Judith Aston about the nature of human existence. It includes perceptions about our bodies' natural form and function, our processes of learning and self expression, and our interaction with the physical properties of the planet and our environment. Key to the paradigm is the recognition that the human body is an asymmetrical structure, that its motion and form take on three-dimensional asymmetrical spiral patterns and that each human body is unique.
Aston-Patterning® is the application of the Aston Paradigm to human movement of the body, mind and spirit, as well as, bodywork and ergonomics, matching human function to its environment. As therapy, its uniqueness lies in its comprehensive approach to the whole individual rather than focusing on separate parts. Specific problems are evaluated in relationship to the whole, taking into consideration the entire person, their body, their character expressions, their personal beliefs and their movement habits. There is no set recipe for managing a problem.
