The Importance of Good Posture
Posture is essential for good health. Posture Perfect!TM has a positive
effect on your circulation, digestion and breathing. It also helps to
alleviate pain by balancing muscles and relieving stress on the knees,
hips, back and neck. Good posture results from muscles that are strong,
flexible and balanced. The muscles that are responsible for good posture
are also critical in helping maintain balance.
Balance Basics
Good balance is crucial to living a long and independent life. It is
difficult to stand or walk unassisted without good balance. How many times
have you heard of someone falling and breaking a hip and never fully
recovering? You learned to balance when you were young. Posture Perfect!TM
helps you re-learn good balance and practice it every day of your life.
Good balance can literally save your life!
Good Posture is a Habit
Like most things you do, posture is a habit. The first step to improving
your posture is awareness. Posture Perfect! makes you aware of your
posture and allows you to slowly start to correct it. You will be more
mindful when you sit, stand and lie down.
Personal Attention and Support
Personal attention is the key to improving your health and fitness. Our
small group approach helps you get the most out of each class. The other
members of the group also provide a natural support system that is
important to a long-term commitment.
