- Postural Rehab
Postural rehab is a type of therapy that is designed to correct poor posture and improve overall posture and alignment. Poor posture can contribute to a variety of musculoskeletal problems, including back pain, neck pain, and headaches. Postural rehab aims to address these issues by identifying and addressing the underlying causes of poor posture.
During a postural rehab session, we will assess the individual’s posture and identify any areas of muscle weakness, tension, or imbalance that may be contributing to poor posture. Based on this assessment, the healthcare provider will develop a personalised treatment plan that may include a variety of techniques, such as:
-
Strengthening exercises:
Postural rehab may involve exercises designed to strengthen the muscles that support good posture, such as the core muscles, back muscles, and neck muscles. -
Stretching:
Postural rehab may involve stretching exercises to improve flexibility and reduce tension in tight muscles. -
Education:
Postural rehab may include education on proper body mechanics, such as how to lift objects safely or how to sit and stand with good posture. -
Ergonomic modifications:
Postural rehab may involve modifying an individual's work or home environment to reduce strain on the body and promote good posture, such as adjusting the height of a desk or chair.
Postural rehab can be a valuable tool for individuals with a wide range of conditions and challenges, including those who sit at a desk for long periods of time, athletes, and individuals with chronic pain. It is often used in conjunction with other treatments, such as manual therapy or electrotherapy, to provide a comprehensive approach to addressing musculoskeletal problems.
