PostureZone in Renton WA
The StrongPosture® model describes three elements of posture - Balance, Alignment and Motion. Strong Posture means each of these elements is strong. To check your posture, contact our Renton WA chiropractor today.
What Is Posture In Renton WA
Strong Balance is the functional ability to keep your body vertical and not falling. Your Posture is what you are doing to accomplish this, or HOW you balance your body.
Alignment is how most people think of posture, from the perspective of "How straight am I standing?" Strong Alignment is when the masses of your body are well aligned along a vertical axis.
Strong Motion refers to the quality of movement. Ideally, motion should be smooth and coupled, and able to continue in a direction despite resistance, and continue moving without having to avoid areas of weakness or stiffness.
The StrongPosture short-duration motor control exercise program strengthens these three elements of posture by focusing on one element at a time, hence the acronym BAM. Postural alignment can shift over time as changes from habitual activity accumulate, affecting how we balance and move. And although initially subtle, the effects of years of poor posture habits accumulate and may not be fully reversible. The goal is to slow (and possibly reverse) the progression of postural breakdown.
Change Begins With Awareness
Change begins with awareness. The goal of the PostureZone® model is to create an observational benchmark, not a prescriptive target. In other words, see how the head, torso and pelvis are aligning over where you are standing…and check back to see if that alignment is unchanged, improved or worse.
"Posture develops over the years but is strengthened in many moments. A few minutes of StrongPosture® a day can train your body to stand taller, move better and live healthier."
- Dr. Steven Weiniger
Strengthening posture can help restore pain free movement, improve sports performance, regain a youthful appearance, improve balance and help in ageing well.
