Are you Posturefit?

At Angela Jackson Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic we offer specific musculoskeletal screening packages to identify postural problems and muscle imbalances that may impact your performance and lead to injury within your chosen sport or occupation.

Our Posturefit programme forms the basis of all of our sport related screening packages. It can be adapted to suit most sports and hobbies or work related situations to analyse the potential risks to the body through repetitive and often harmful movements and positions.

We now have specific packages for:

• Physiofit for Sport
• Physiofit for Work
• Physiofit for Golf
• Posturefit Assessments

Posturefit Assessments.

We spend a fortune each year having our cars serviced and MOT’d but what do we do to ensure our bodies are in full working order?

Headaches, neck or back ache and sore feet can all be caused by problems with posture. Even poor sleeping postures can lead to a variety of troubles such as poor concentration and headaches. These conditions cause misery and require treatment eventually - so why not invest in preventing the pain?

Hectic lifestyles and everyday tasks - driving, sitting at a desk, gardening, playing sport, carrying school bags - place huge demands on our bodies from childhood on, and we need to consider our posture during these activities to keep injury-free.

What is a POSTURE FIT CHECK ?

• An assessment of your posture including muscle imbalance tests to highlight tight muscles and weak areas
• The use of digital photography to show you “before & after “
• A personalised exercise programme for postural re-education.

Following the detailed assessment process you will be given photographs or video clips of your exercises and followed up at appropriate intervals to assess progression.
