Corrective Exercise Programmes
Corrective exercise is a form of exercise that focuses on teaching and applying correct postural position, allowing the body to perform at its best. Bad habits such as slouching and sitting at office desks awkwardly lead to poor postural positions that become practically 'normal' to you. Gradually this situation may lead to muscles tightening in some areas and weakening in others, as a result muscles can be pulled out of their natural alignment leading to postural problems (e.g. Hunched and rounded shoulders).
Corrective exercise reworks your assumed posture, correcting muscular imbalances whilst reinvigorating under-used or weakened areas. Over time your flexibility will return and your natural postural frame restored. This ensures that your body works as it should, hopefully preventing future problems. This becomes especially important for those who are embarking on an intensive training programme where the body is put under stress.
As well as postural problems, this type of training can help with sports injury rehabilitation, pre and post surgical people or those wih musculoskeletal disorders.
