The exam process is quite easy and takes about seventeen seconds.
1. Take a picture of the posture from the side.
2. Click on five anatomical landmarks
3. Review results on the screen or send to the printer.
Posture Pro automatically calculates the person’s Posture Number. This number represents
deviations of recognized anatomical landmarks from a plumb line. A normal Posture Number is
zero. As the PN elevates so do the deviations from normal. We have seen Posture Numbers in young
males as high as 38. (See picture on left)
Treatment Strategies
The author primarily uses two tools to help
correct Tech Neck Posture and reduce the
Posture Number.
1. Targeted Stretches and Exercises
2. Posture Blocks
Targeted Stretches and Exercises
With Tech Neck, we know which muscles are under stretch tension and which muscles have
shortened. To reverse those changes you work the muscles that are stretched and stretch the muscles
that are short. Posture Pro will print those stretches/exercises for daily use by the patient. They are
also available on DVD.
Posture Blocks
The author has developed a passive traction device
consisting of foam pieces of different shapes and
different densities. When laid upon, the weight of the
body, pull of Gravity and foam densities pull, stretch
and rotate target areas of the body. Just 15 minutes per
day, in conjunction with the stretches/exercises, can
counter the effects of Tech Neck.
