Sports Chiropractic is a specialised health profession that cares for a patient or sports athlete.
Postural Realignment focuses on correcting and improving body posture.
Our Sports Chiropractic Doctors provide the following:
This initial step involves evaluating your posture to identify any muscle imbalances, such as tight or weak muscles, as well as joint issues like stiffness or hypermobility. The assessment helps pinpoint the root causes of poor posture, which may contribute to discomfort or pain.
Based on the assessment, personalised occupational advice is provided on how to correct your posture during daily activities, including sitting, standing, and moving. This advice is tailored to your specific needs, taking into account your occupation, driving habits, and other routine activities. The goal is to help you integrate these postural improvements into your everyday life.
Corrective Physiotherapy Exercises to Improve Posture: A set of exercises is prescribed by the physiotherapist or chiropractor to address the identified issues. These exercises may include stretches to loosen tight muscles, strengthening exercises for weak muscles, and mobility exercises to either loosen stiff joints or stabilize overly mobile ones. The aim is to help you achieve a balanced and aligned posture, reducing pain and enhancing your overall physical function.

Posture refers to the alignment and positioning of various body parts relative to each other. It is crucial for overall musculoskeletal health and comfort. Good posture involves maintaining the proper alignment of body segments, whereas poor posture can lead to issues such as musculoskeletal pain, joint stiffness, and discomfort.
In Physiotherapy or Chiropractic contexts, posture specifically refers to the relationships among different body parts and their anatomical arrangement. Posture correction exercise physiotherapy is a personalized, one-on-one session that includes posture analysis, specific training exercises, and guidance on integrating proper alignment into daily activities.
Sports Physiotherapy or Chiropractic treatment aims to address and optimize the alignment of body parts such as the spine, shoulder blades, hips, and pelvis. By improving posture, individuals can sit straighter, move more efficiently, and enhance sports performance. Correcting spinal curvature and improving the positioning and movements of the shoulders, back, hips, and knees can alleviate pain and prevent injuries, whether at work or during physical activities like sports.
Overall, posture correction exercise therapy is designed to help individuals achieve better posture habits, leading to improved musculoskeletal health, reduced discomfort, and enhanced functionality in daily life and physical pursuits.
