postural analysis

Postural analysis is the process of assessing the alignment and positioning of the body in various standing, sitting, or movement positions. By examining how the bones, muscles, and joints are aligned, it helps identify any imbalances, asymmetries, or abnormal postures that may cause discomfort or decrease function. This assessment can reveal patterns that contribute to pain, injury, or inefficient movement. Postural analysis is used by health professionals like chiropractors, physical therapists, and sports coaches to develop targeted treatment or training plans, promoting better posture, improved movement, and overall well-being.
