Poor Posture
What is the first thing people notice about you? Your Posture! Besides making you look good, your posture also affects you health. If you or your family are not feeling the best, posture could be the reason behind it.
What is Posture? Posture is the unconscious position assumed by your body in response to gravity. It is influenced by two main factors:
- Your genes
- The way you use your body
While you cannot do much (or anything at all) about the genes you inherited, you have complete control over the second factor. If you use your body properly during regular activities such as standing, sitting and sleeping, you can correct your posture.

Our daily lives present a lot of posture problems on kids and adults alike. Whether it is sitting in a classroom, on the lounge watching TV, or at a computer for extended periods of time, almost everyone is in need of a good posture correction program.
