Case Studies






" Posture effects and moderates every physiological function from breathing to hormonal production. Spinal pain, headaches, mood, blood pressure, pulse, and lung capacity are among the functions most easily influenced by posture. Posture, normal physiology, and function are interrelated. Abnormal posture is evident in patients with chronic pain-related conditions including backache, headache, and stress-related illness. "

Posture Analysis
Your examination will also include a digital posture examination. This examination involves the evaluation of your spinal posture in two dimensions.
Your spine will be compared to expected normal values for stress, weight balance and potential spinal dysfunction.
When the spine distorts into abnormal postures, undue stress is placed on the various joints, muscles and the nervous system.
Evaluation of the posture is quick, effective, and creates a permanent record of the status of your spine.
Once a digital picture is taken, the data is fed into the program and a comprehensive report is produced which aids the specificity of the care provided.
