Free Posture Check in Richmond
Free Spinal Health Check Richmond Chiropractic
The Free Posture Check is a sponsored Spinal Health Assessment that we provide to members of the community to find out how they measure up. It’s a quick way to uncover posture imbalances and potential links to musculoskeletal issues.
If we compare a posture check with a car, the posture check is measuring the equivalent of your car’s balance and alignment to make sure the car is running safely, able to stay on course and not wearing out the tyres or break before the time.
The body works somewhat similar to the car although it is much more sophisticated and complex needing good alignment to function efficiently. In the same way that a car develops problems if not looked after, so does your body.
Posture is a window into the health of our spines and spinal health impacts how well your central nervous system works which controls 99% of all muscles, organs and functions in the body.
How our Free Posture Assessment Works
Our Free Posture Assessment only takes 15 minutes and consists of an Initial palpation of the spine, fully clothed, whilst conducting the above posture analysis and weight distribution measurements to correlate the shape and overall direction of the joints, spine, and structure.
We will then take posture pictures, using a specialised app, to perform a more detailed analysis of your base-line posture and map out any anomalies using lines and markers.
I have no pain should I still do this?
When it comes to the body not everything is about pain or no pain. Not being in pain is preferable than being in pain, but at the end of the day, the pain signal has a purpose. It’s a message the brain sends to your body to let you know when something is wrong and where to look.
Some issues may not cause pain at all. For example we see clients who have no pain yet their postural imbalances are putting strain on certain joints and wearing them out faster than the body’s rate of repair. Left unchecked this would eventually lead to issues and further injuries.
