The original technique was conceived in 1914 and developed over the next 15 years by two chiropractors, Dr. John Hurley D.C. and Dr. Helen Sanders D.C.,PhC.
Kept pure by Dr. Francis Goes D.C. he taught it to Dr. LaMar Rosquist D.C. in the late 1950’s. Over the next 10 years he encouraged Dr. Rosquist to refine the original technique for the next generation.
In 1998 Dr. Allyn Edwards D.C. and Dr. Sue Weller D.C. became the first authorised tutors in Europe. They worked with Dr. Rosquist over the next 10 years to refine the technique again for their generation.
In 2008 Dr. Rosquist wrote to them and charged them with keeping this technique alive and with developing it further for posterity. Dr Rosquist died in 2012.
Core Postural Alignment
Since 1998 Allyn & Sue have been using, teaching, experimenting and refining this technique in the light of a more modern understanding of anatomy and physiology.
In 2014 they decided to change the name to Core Postural Alignment as this name better reflects what the technique had evolved into.
