Healthy posture is a key factor in preventing pain and injuries. When your body is properly aligned, your muscles, ligaments, and joints experience less strain. Most people believe good posture means simply standing up tall and bringing your shoulders back; however, posture is complex and requires specificity to truly correct.
Our Examination Approach
A thorough examination, including digital biomechanical x-rays, helps pinpoint the location and severity of your posture and spinal alignment. We then digitize your x-rays using PostureRay, where we can map out your ideal posture and measure where you match up.
Our Treatment Approach
- Specific Corrective Exercises: Lack of proper muscle activation often starts the cascade of poor posture. We specialize in advanced postural exercises to help strengthen the body back into its proper alignment.
- Spinal Remodeling Traction: Poor posture creates chronically tight ligaments. This targeted approach gently stretches the ligaments in your spine to return to their natural length, which is essential for proper posture.
- Ergonomics Education and Training: Your body adapts to the positions you put it in. We educate you on maintaining good alignment throughout daily activities and provide training to improve long-term postural habits so your improvements are sustainable.
- At Home Rehabilitation: We design programs for each patient to perform at home so they can become as self-sufficient as possible.
Our Follow Up Approach
Updated digital biomechanical x-rays will be taken and compared to your original x-rays after your recommended round of treatment concludes. Our average patient achieves a 50% improvement in posture and spinal alignment within 12 weeks. This translates to lasting pain relief, fewer injuries and reduced risk of degeneration and arthritis.
What are the Symptoms of Poor Posture?
Common symptoms of abnormal posture include chronic back pain, neck pain, and headaches. You might also experience muscle tension, fatigue, and difficulty with balance. Long-standing untreated poor posture can eventually lead to arthritis and compressed nerves, causing radiating pain, numbness, and weakness.
