POSTURE

POSTURE IS A POSTION OR ATTITUDE OF THE


BODY EITHER WITH SUPPORT DURING
MUSCULAR INACTIVITY,OR BY MEANS OF THE
CO-ORDINATED ACTION OF MANY MUSCLES
WORKING TO MAINTAIN STABILITY OR TO
FORM AN ESSENTIAL BASIS WHICH IS BEING
ADAPTED CONSTANTLYTO THE MOVEMENT
WHICH IS SUPPORT-IMPOSED UOON IT.
CHARACTERISITS OF GOOD POSTURE
FOR GOOD POSTURE TO BE MAINTAINED THE
FOLLOWING MUST BE OBTAINED:

1) THE ABILITY TO MAINTAIN THE BODY UPRIGHT


IN GOOD AND ERRECT POSITION WITH LESS
ENERGY.
2) THE ABILITY TO MAINTAIN BALANCE IN
UPRIGHT POSITION VIA KEEPING THE LINE OF
GRAVITY NEAR THE CENTER OF THE BASE OF
SUPPORT.
EFFECTS OF GOOD POSTURE
MAINTAINING GOOD POSTURE HAS ITS VALUES IN
DIFFERENT BODY FUNCTIONS AND SYSTEMS.

THE EFFECTS OF GOOD POSTURE INCLUDE:


1. HELPS THE MUSCLES IN THE BODY TO BE
UNLOADED AND RELAXED.
2. IMPROVES RESPIRATORY AND CIRCULATORY
EFFICIENCY.
3. PREVENTS UNNECESSARY STRAIN AND FATIGUE.
4. DECREASE THE INCIDENCE OF DISEASE RESULTING
FROM BAD POSTURE.
5. IMPROVES THE SUBJECTS STATE;MENTALLY AND
PSYCHOLOGICALLY.
TYPES OF POSTURE

1)INACTIVE POSTURES
2)ACTIVE POSTURES
⮚STATIC POSTURES
⮚DYNAMIC POSTURES
INACTIVE POSTURE
⮚ATTITUDE ADOPTED FOR RESTING OR
SLEEPING
⮚ALL ESSENTIAL MUSCULAR ACTIVITY
REDUCES TO MIMIMUM
⮚USED FOR TRAINING GENERAL RELAXTION
ACTIVE POSTURE
⮚ INTEGRATED ACTIVITY OR ACTION OF
MANY MUSCLES IS REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN
ACTIVE POSTURE
⮚ IT MAY BE EITHER STATIC OR DYNAMIC
STATIC POSTURE DYNAMIC POSTURE

⮚ THE BODY AND ITS ⮚ THE BODY AND ITS


SEGMENTS ARE SEGMENTS ARE
ALIGNED AND CONSTANLY MODIFIED
MAINTAINED IN AND ADJUSTED TO
MEET THE CHANGING
CERTAIN POSITION. CIRCUMSTANCES
⮚ CONSTANT PATTREN WHICH ARISE AS THE
OF POSTURE RESULT OF MOVEMENT.
⮚ EG;) STANDING,LYING ⮚ EG;)WALKING,RUNNING
AND SITTIND , JUMPING,THROWING
AND LIFTING

POSTURE ASSESMENT
THE KEY TO GOOD POSTURE IS
THE POSITION OF THE SPINE.THE SPINE HAS
THREE NATURAL CURVES –AT YOUR
NECK,MID/UPPER BACK AND LOWER
BACK.CORRECT POSTURE SHOULD MAINTAIN
THESE CURVES,BUT NOT INCREASE THEM.THE
HEAD SHOULD BE ABOVE YOUR
SHOULDERS,AND THE TOP OF YOUR
SHOULDER BE OVER THE HIP.
IN AN IDEAL POSTURE, THE LINE OF GRAVITY
SHOULD PASS THROUGH SPECIFIC POINTS OF THE
BODY.THIS CAN SIMPLY BE OBSERVED OR
EVALUATED USING A PLUMB LINE TO ASSESS THE
MIDLINE OF THE BODY.

THIS LINE SHOULD PASS THROUGH THE LOBE


OF THE EAR ,THE SHOULDER JOINT,THE HIP
JOINT,THROUGH THE GREATER TROCHANTER OF
THE FEMUR,THEN SLIGHTY ANTERIOR TO THE
MIDLINE OF THE KNEE JOINT AND LASTLY
ANTERIOR TO THE LATERAL MALLEOLUS.
WHEN VIEWED FROM EITHER THE
FRONT OR THE BACK,THE VERTICAL LINE
PASSING THROUGH THE BODY’S CENTRE OF
GRAVITY SHOULD THEORETICALLY BISECT
THE BODY INTO TWO EQUAL HALVES,WITH
THE BODYWEIGHT DISTRIBUTED EVENLY
BETWEEN THE TWO FEET.
WHILE ASSESSING POSTURE,SYMMETRY AND
ROTATIONS/TILTS SHOULD BE OBSERVED IN THE
ANTERIOR,LATERAL AND POSTERIOR VIEWS.
ASSESS:
⮚HEAD ALIGNMENT
⮚CERVICAL,THORACIC AND LUMBAR
CURVATURE
⮚SHOULDER LEVEL SYMMETRY
⮚PELVIC SYMMETRY
⮚HIP,KNEE AND ANKLE JOINTS
IN SITTING:
⮚ THE EARS SHOULD BE ALIGNED WITH THE
SHOULDERS AND THE SHOULDERS ALIGNED WITH
THE HIPS.
⮚ THE SHOULDERS SHOULD BE RELAXED AND
ELBOWS ARE CLOSE TO THE SIDES OF THE BODY .
⮚ THE ANGLE OF THE ELBOWS,HIPS AND KNEES IS
APPROXIMATELY 90 DEGREES.
⮚ THE FEET FLAT ON THE FLOOR
⮚ THE FOREARMS ARE PARALLEL TO THE FLOOR WITH
WRISTS STRAIGHT.
⮚ FEET SHOULD REST COMFORTABLY ON A SURFACE.
POSTURE AND HEALTH
POOR POSTURE CAN BE BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH.
⮚MISALIGN YOUR MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM
⮚INCREASE PRESSURE ON THE SPINE,MAKING
IT MORE PRONE TO INJURY AND
DEGENERATION
⮚CAUSE NECK,SHOULDER AND BACK PAIN
⮚DECREASE FLEXIBILITY
⮚MAKE IT HARD TO BREATHE
⮚MAKE IT HARDER TO DIGEST FOOD
ABNORMAL POSTURE
1) LORDOTIC POSTURE
LORDSIS IS THE
NORMAL
CURVE(ATERIOR
CONVEXITY) OF
CERVICAL AND
LUMBAR SPINE WHICH
IS FOUND ALL
NORAML INDIVIDUAL
PATHOLOGICALLY.IT IS
AN EXAGRESSION OF
THE NORMAL CURVE
AND LUMBAR SPINE.
TREATMENT OF EXCESSIVE
LUMBAR LORDOSIS
⮚MOBILIZATION OF LUMBAR SPINE
⮚ANTERIOR STRECTHING OF LUMBAR SPINE
⮚STRENGTHENING OF ABDOMINALS,GLUTEI
AND HAMSTRING
⮚TOE TOUCH IN LONG SITTING OR FORWARD
BENDING SITTING EXERCISE
2)KYPHOTIC POSTURE
IT IS THE POSTURE IN WHICH LUMBAR SPINE
AND CERVICAL SPINE GET HYPER EXTENDED
WHILE THORACIC SPINE GET FLEXED AND HEAD
BECOME SLIGHTLY FORWARD.
TREATMENT OF KYOPHOSIS
⮚RALAXTION
⮚REPEATED STRETCHING SESSION
⮚POSTURE OF HEAD,NECK AND SHOULDER
⮚MOBILIZATION OF THE WHOLE SPINE
⮚CONTROLLED PELVIC TILT
3) SCOLIOTIC POSTURE
A LATERAL CURVATURE OF SPINE WHICH EXCEEDS 10
DEGREE OF THE VERTEBRAL FROM THE NORMAL IS
TENDED AS SCOLIOSIS COLUM TO ONE SIDE
COMBINED WITH ROTATION OF THE VERTEBRAL
BODIES TOWARDS THE CONVEXITY AND THE SPINOIUS
PROCESS TOWARDS THE CONCAVITY.
TREATMENT OF SCOLIOSIS
⮚ACTIVE CORRECTION WITH POSTURAL
ADAPTATION
⮚PASSIVE CORRECTION BY HANGNG
⮚RALAXTION TECHNIQUE
⮚GENERAL FREE MOBILITY EXERCISE
⮚DEEP BREATHING
⮚TRACTION
⮚BALANCE EXERCISE
4)SWAY BACK POSTURE
T IS FAULTY POSTURE IN WHICH HEAD BECOMES
SLIGHTLY FORWARD THERE IS EXTENSION OF
CERVICAL SPINE,FLEXION OF THORACIC AND LOSS
OF LORDOSIS, LUMBAR SPINE EXTENSION OF HIP
AND KNEE JOINT DURING STANDING ARE ALSO THE
FEATURE OF SWAY BACK POSTURE PELVIS ROTATES
POSTERIORLY.
5) FLAT BACK POSTURE
FLAT BACK IS FAULTY POSTURE IN
WHICH WHOLE LUMBAR AND THORACIC SPINE
GETS FLATTENED.
