Posture refers to the way we align and hold our body while standing, sitting, or moving. Good posture helps keep bones and joints in proper alignment, reduces strain on muscles and ligaments, and prevents fatigue and injuries. On the other hand, poor posture can lead to muscle imbalances, joint pain, spinal problems, and reduced mobility.
A physical therapist will assess body alignment, muscle strength, and joint mobility to identify postural imbalances using various methods.
Forward head posture
Rounded shoulders
Kyphosis
(hunched upper back)
Excessive lordosis (overarching lower back)
Posterior pelvic tilt
(flattened lower back)
Flat back
Improving posture through exercise typically takes several weeks to months, depending on body condition and consistency. Regular stretching and core strengthening 2-5 times a week can show clear results in 4-8 weeks. Balance and stability training with exercises like Pilates, yoga, and stretching make results more lasting and reduce pain from poor posture. It’s a long-term investment that should continue, guided by experts for safe, effective outcomes.
Exercises like yoga and Pilates strengthen core and surrounding muscles, improve flexibility, and increase range of motion, resulting in graceful, confident posture, less stress, better balance, and reduced injury risk. Good posture also improves body efficiency, reduces aches, and supports long-term physical and mental health.
Poor posture leads to chronic muscle and joint pain, structural deformities, increased pressure on joints and discs, nerve and circulation issues, decreased productivity, greater fatigue, higher risk of accidents, and injuries in daily life. It also affects appearance and self-confidence. Thus, it’s crucial to correct posture consistently to sustainably prevent these problems.
