Postural Screenings

Physical Therapy and Chiropractic Care for Postural Screening

Postural Screening with Non-Invasive Chiropractic Treatments and Physical Therapy

At Action Physical Therapy, we take the time to understand your needs and concerns.  Both Physical Therapy and Non-Invasive Chiropractic Treatment may help relieve pain and discomfort. Most patients are so engrossed with their daily work life and activities that one’s posture is the last concern.  Proper spinal alignment is essential for optimum health during your life.  You’re probably telling your kids to stand tall and sit straight, while you’re spending 8 hours slouching on the computer when  sitting at your desk. It seems like we still haven’t figured out the “science“ of a proper posture, so we’re slouching out of habit and it may be comfort.

Posture and Spinal Screenings by a trained and experienced Chiropractor and Physical Therapist

Remember as a child when the school nurse examined your spine during the gym class, looking for any curves or scoliosis?

Now, ask yourself, when was the last time you did postural screenings?

You know that postural screenings detect problems in your spine quickly and easily, right? As a matter of fact, postural screenings are of a big importance for discovering neuromusculoskeletal problems with your body before they cause serious issues. They actually uncover different posture issues that you didn’t know you have in the first place. Unfortunately, a lot of people think that if they don’t feel that something is wrong with their spine, then nothing is wrong.  If you are like most people or may treat posture like many things in life, we’re like: if it’s not broken, then why should I care?

Problems that May Occur with a Misaligned Spine due to Poor Posture
