About Posture & Sports Injuries
From desk-bound posture to acute sports injuries, this category covers the everyday strains and impacts that affect how the spine and joints move and feel.
The right approach depends heavily on the specific injury or postural pattern, so assessment always comes first.
Common symptoms

- Muscle imbalance or asymmetry
- Pain or swelling following a specific incident
- Reduced strength or stability after injury
- Recurring strain in the same area during activity
Possible causes
- Prolonged sitting and screen-based work
- Inadequate warm-up before sport or training
- Repetitive movement patterns in a single sport
- Sudden increases in training load or intensity
- Previous injuries that didn't fully rehabilitate
