Physiotherapy Helps Posture In Vernon BC

Arise Physiotherapy can help with many posture-related concerns in Vernon BC. Our physiotherapy team strives to go beyond addressing symptoms, using hands-on techniques and exercises to correct poor posture and restore the body's optimal alignment.

How Does Physiotherapy Help Improve Posture in Vernon BC?

• Postural Evaluations: Your therapist will begin by assessing your posture, analyzing how you sit, stand and move in order to detect any misalignments or postural imbalances. Your therapist will then create a plan customized just for you.
• Hands-On Treatment: Techniques like joint mobilization and soft-tissue massage can reduce tension and improve mobility, making it easier to adopt better posture and sustain better alignment.
• Targeted Stretches: Tight muscles (like the chest, neck and hip flexors) can pull your body out of alignment. Specific stretches can help improve your range of motion and ease muscle tension, resulting in better posture and balance.
• Specialized Exercises: Your physiotherapist may suggest certain exercises designed to strengthen weak muscle groups. For example, strengthening the core and upper back muscles will support your spine better and improve slouching.
• Relief from Pain & Discomfort: Postural imbalances are often linked to pain and discomfort. Your physiotherapist will work to break this cycle so you can experience lasting relief from pain and greater overall well-being.
