Posture Analysis

Good posture is about more than standing up straight so you can look your best.

  • It is an important part of your long-term health.
  • Making sure that you hold your body the right way, whether you are moving or still, can prevent pain, injuries, and other health problems.
  • In an ideal posture, the line of gravity should pass through specific points of the body. This can simply be observed or evaluated using a plumb line to assess the midline of the body.
  • This line should pass through the lobe of the ear, the shoulder joint, the hip joint, though the greater trochanter of the femur, then slightly anterior to the midline of the knee joint and lastly anterior to the lateral malleolus.
  • When viewed from either the front or the back, the vertical line passing through the body’s centre of gravity should theoretically bisect the body into two equal halves, with the bodyweight distributed evenly between the two feet.
  • While assessing posture, symmetry and rotations/tilts should be observed in the anterior, lateral and posterior views.\
  • Assess:
    • Head alignment
    • Cervical, thoracic and lumbar curvature
    • Shoulder level symmetry
    • Pelvic symmetry
    • Hip, knee and ankle joints

posture analysis system analyses the standing posture of the patient. Its posture analysis protocol identifies key postural deviations from multiple views & exports all data to a report.

3 STEP WORKFLOW:-
1. CAPTURE
The posture of the patient is captured using cameras.
2. ANALYSES
The clinician uses inbuilt protocols in Gait ON to analyze the patient’s posture.

3. GENERATE REPORT
the analysis results to well organized & print ready reports.
