Posture Correction

What is Posture Correction?

Poor posture is one of the most common issues we see — and it is not surprising given how much time we spend sitting at desks, looking at phones, and driving. Forward head posture is particularly prevalent: for every 2.5 centimetres the head sits forward of the shoulders, the effective load on the neck increases significantly. Over time, poor posture can contribute to neck pain, back pain, tension headaches, and chronic fatigue. Many people come to us specifically looking for a chiropractor for posture correction — and we are well placed to help. At Banora Chiropractic, we conduct a thorough postural assessment and create a personalised plan combining spinal adjustments, targeted exercises, and practical daily habits.

How this may help you

• May help reduce neck and back pain caused by postural strain
• Addresses forward head posture and rounded shoulder patterns

• Aims to reduce tension headaches linked to poor posture
• May help prevent long-term postural and spinal changes
• Designed to improve your body awareness and daily comfort

Who is this for?

Anyone who sits for long periods, uses screens regularly, or has noticed changes in their posture over time. We commonly see people with forward head posture from desk and phone use, rounded shoulders from prolonged sitting, and postural changes in young people from heavy school bags and screen time.

What to expect

We start with a detailed posture assessment — looking at your spinal alignment, head position, shoulder position, and how you move. We will identify the specific patterns contributing to your discomfort and explain what we find. From there, your care plan may include chiropractic adjustments to restore joint mobility, exercises to strengthen the deep postural muscles, and practical guidance on workstation setup, sleeping position, and daily habits.
