Postural Correction Physiotherapy Improving posture to reduce pain, restore balance, and support long-term movement health.
What Is Postural Correction Physiotherapy?
Postural correction physiotherapy focuses on identifying and addressing how posture and movement habits affect the body over time. Poor posture often develops gradually due to long hours sitting, desk work, screen use, repetitive movements, or limited physical activity.
Many people seek postural physiotherapy for neck pain, upper and lower back pain, shoulder tension, headaches, stiffness, or general discomfort that seems to return despite rest or exercise.
At GK Physiotherapy, postural correction begins with understanding how the body moves throughout the day — not just how it looks standing still. Treatment focuses on restoring balance between muscles and joints while improving movement efficiency in everyday life.
Common Problems Linked to Poor Posture
Postural correction physiotherapy is commonly used to address:
-
Neck pain and stiffness
-
Upper and lower back pain
-
Rounded shoulders and forward head posture
-
Desk-related and work-from-home pain
-
Headaches linked to muscle tension
-
Muscle imbalance and joint strain
-
General fatigue or discomfort during daily activities
These issues often stem from habits rather than injury — which is why correcting movement patterns is key to long-term improvement.
