POSTURAL CORRECTION AND ERGONOMICS

Postural Correction involves a detailed assessment of the ‘individual’ and identifies any predisposing factors to pain and injury. This is closely involved with the study of Ergonomics.

Ergonomics is a science concerned with the ‘fit’ between people and their work. It takes account of the worker's abilities in seeking to ensure that tasks, equipment, information and the environment suit each worker.

Some common conditions associated with ergonomics that we treat at the clinic include:

Repetitive Strain Injuries

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Neck/Shoulder Pain

Headaches

Low back pain

Desk work is the most common cause of the above complaints.

Our therapists are qualified in assessing and providing advice in the area of ergonomics. Please contact us if you require workplace assessments.
