In 2016 I wrote a presentation called ‘Beating the Hump’ and in that talk I discussed what were then groundbreaking non-surgical, non-drug therapies for fixing the problem instead of covering it up. I must have given that presentation 100 times that year. Everywhere from Thompson-Reuters to Novus International to (almost) every high school staff in Saint Charles County to the Salvation Army (it's safe to say I am their favorite speaker.)

From those early cases we pioneered and refined a treatment plan that produces reliable, consistent, maintainable results. In addition to the restoration of the proper posture, we were seeing increases in grip strength and pulmonary function. One of the nasty things about forward head posture changes is that people with bad posture often can’t squeeze and can’t breath in deeply.

We measure these changes, both good and bad, through quantitative, objective measuring devices that just weren’t around 2 decades ago. Needless to say we have built quite a collection of successful cases, some of which we have posted here with the patient's permission.
