Sports chiropractic is a specialised health profession that cares for a patient or sports athlete. Postural realignment focuses on correcting and improving body posture.
Sports chiropractors provide assessment and evaluation to diagnose and treat a patient's muscular, nervous, and skeletal systems. The treatment involves joint manipulation, joint mobilisation, and muscle release techniques.
Chiropractor George specialises in Cranial Fascial Release (CFR), a specialised technique within cranial manipulation that focuses on the fascia and cranial structures to enhance mobility, relieve tension, and promote overall neurological function.

What postural realignment involves
Postural Assessment
This initial step involves evaluating your posture to identify any muscle imbalances, such as tight or weak muscles, as well as joint issues like stiffness or hypermobility. The assessment helps pinpoint the root causes of poor posture, which may contribute to discomfort or pain.
Postural Advice
Based on the assessment, personalised occupational advice is provided on how to correct your posture during daily activities, including sitting, standing, and moving. This advice is tailored to your specific needs, taking into account your occupation, driving habits, and other routine activities. The goal is to help you integrate these postural improvements into your everyday life.
Corrective Physiotherapy Exercises to Improve Posture
Corrective Physiotherapy Exercises to Improve Posture: A set of exercises is prescribed by the physiotherapist or chiropractor to address the identified issues. These exercises may include stretches to loosen tight muscles, strengthening exercises for weak muscles, and mobility exercises to either loosen stiff joints or stabilize overly mobile ones. The aim is to help you achieve a balanced and aligned posture, reducing pain and enhancing your overall physical function.
