Posture

Posture is more than sitting up straight

A useful way to think about posture, movement variety and the loads your body manages across the day.

Posture is not one perfect position that needs to be held all day. It changes with the task, your environment and the way your body manages load.

Movement variety matters

Long periods in any one position can feel demanding. Regular position changes, comfortable movement and sensible workstation adjustments may help reduce unnecessary load.

If stiffness or discomfort keeps returning, an assessment can explore spinal movement, daily habits and other factors that may be contributing.
