Posture

Osteopath for bad posture in Chelmsford
​What is Poor Posture? 

Postural issues develop when the body is habitually held in positions that strain muscles and joints - often due to desk work, phone use, or repetitive habits.

Poor posture can also be present from a young age, caused by congenital or developmental issues. 



Common Signs
​
  • Rounded shoulders
  • Forward head position
  • Rotated pelvis
  • ​Worn shoes or asymmetrical gait 
  • Back or neck pain
  • Muscle fatigue or stiffness​​


Causes of Bad Posture 

  • Sedentary lifestyle
  • Desk-based work
  • Poor ergonomic setup
  • Muscle imbalances
  • Bad habits
  • Congenital or developmental anomalies 


How Osteopathy Treats Bad Posture

Osteopathy addresses the root causes of poor posture by:
  • Releasing tight muscles
  • Improving joint mobility
  • Restoring balance across the body
  • Providing tailored posture, muscle strength and ergonomic advice


Can Osteopathy Fix Bad Posture? 

It depends on the cause, but in most cases and age groups posture correction is possible. As long as both the habitual and mechanical issues are identified, results are good in the medium to long term. 


Long Term Correction 

  • Individual exercise plan​
  • Ergonomic optimisation 
  • Semi-regular maintenance
