Poor posture is one of the most common causes of spinal pain, and our modern lifestyles, with lots of sitting and device use, make it easy to slip into habits that load the neck and back. Poor posture can cause pain in the neck, shoulders and arm, the mid back, and the low back and legs. The good news is that help is available, and better posture not only feels good but helps prevent pain from starting in the first place.
A detailed assessment by one of our physiotherapists identifies your specific problem areas. Everyone is different, and there is no single perfect alignment, but good alignment lets your muscles and joints work at their best. Whether your issue shows up in sitting, standing or both, we design a custom exercise program that stretches what is tight and strengthens what is weak, along with practical advice on how to sit, stand and set up your workspace.
This service is delivered through PhysioFit using active treatment strategies. Rather than relying on machines or ongoing passive treatment, we educate you about your body and give you the tools to manage and improve it yourself. Programs can run one on one in the clinic, in the gym or at home. We also offer group exercise spinal classes, held weekly for one hour over ten weeks, which are a supportive way to consolidate what you have learned.
