Postural Asymmetries and Other Issues

Postural issues affect many people. Based on a person’s age, physical history, activity levels, and daily routines, posture may vary and change over time. This may result in pain, discomfort, and/or esthetic changes.

Treatment using the Schroth principles may be effective for addressing postural issues. Combined with other approaches and techniques, Physiotherapists and Registered Massage Therapists at The ScoliClinic can support you to maintain and improve your posture.

Your ScoliClinic therapist may use hand-on techniques and modalities such as soft tissue massage, joint mobilizations, or acupuncture/dry needling.

In addition, they’ll perform a movement assessment and provide postural education, activity modification, and strengthening/stretching programs to help you address your concerns.
