Postural Assessment & Retraining
Our posture, how we habitually hold and move ourselves, has a massive impact on our overall health and musculoskeletal well-being.
Unfortunately, being habitual (and largely unconscious), it can be extremely difficult to change without some guidance and help. By assessing the way that your body adapts to and compensates to past traumas and the stresses of day-to-day life, your osteopath can help you to improve the efficiency of these mechanisms. By stretching and mobilising certain areas, and strengthening others, 'weak links' in the way your body absorbs and redirects forces can be redressed, Such advice and exercises will normally form part of your personalised exercise management program. |
