Posturology?

Posturology is nothing short of life changing that dates back to the XIXth century.  It is a technique that changes the way your brain communicates with your muscles = improved posture,  increased strength and lower pain. 

Our current health system was built to treat symptoms, instead of addressing the true cause of the symptoms.

The basic premise of Posturology is that the body receives sensory information from the environment primarily via the foot, eye, bite and skin. If there is a defect in one or more of these systems, the body adapts to the faulty signals it’s receiving, and thereby becomes pathologically imbalanced.

The aim of Posturology is to correct errors at these receptor sites, returning the body to proper equilibrium.

Defining Posturology?

Posturology is an unconventional method of studying posture, an automatic and unconscious motor act that allows:

– To adopt an erect position.

– To stabilize this position in static or dynamic.

– To develop the spatial knowledge of the self in relation to its environment. Who says posture says fight against gravity.

Posturology is concerned with the body’s strategy to fight against gravity. Posturology is a discipline that studies the position of a subject in space:

– Its balance.

– Its stature.

– Its stability.

It considers the ability to balance on one’s feet as well as the symmetry of the body or the visual perception of horizontality.

Principles of Posturology?

To stand upright, human beings struggle against gravity and seek balance.

He must constantly adapt his body to his environment according to the external signals received by his sensory sensors located in the eyes and feet.

These signals are transmitted to the brain which, in turn, sends messages to the muscles so that the body adapts.

The cause of a posture disorder is the information received from misadjusted sensors. The consequence can be:

– Balance disorders.
– Muscle tension.
– Chronic discomfort.

The benefits of posturology:

Posturology does not aim to cure any ailment whatsoever. It therefore does not claim any therapeutic application as such.

It is an observation tool that can detect and improve postural asymmetries and functional balance disorders.

The benefits can be as follows:

– Elimination of physical pain.
– Elimination of muscle tension.
– Significant improvement in balance.

  • I have been at BBC for almost a year. I have worked out with multiple trainers and they all bring something different to the session. Top that off with the nutrition help I have received and this place offers a total package customized specifically to me. My arthritic knee has never felt stronger. It's been an amazing experience, I highly recommend BBC!

  • I have been going to Body By Choice Training since June. I have completed one twelve-week program and just recently started a new twelve week program. I have been able to work with three different trainers at Body By Choice. My trainers are Nate, Taylor and Andy I train with them three times a week. I have loved training with them and have felt stronger, healthier and better about myself since I’ve started. Each of them push and support me while I am training. They also have a nutritionist that is available to improve your nutrition. I highly recommend Body By Choice if you are looking to get in shape and improve your overall health. They are the experts 🙂

  • I have recently joined Body By Choice and could not be happier. The owner Nick and my trainer Kolby have put together a personalized plan to get me back in shape and help relieve some of my chronic pain. Kolby pushes me every workout and I trust in his process. Also meeting with the nutritionist has completely changed my eating habits. The education about nutrition is priceless. I have renewed hope that I will meet and exceed my fitness goals.

  • BBC is the most amazing gym I've ever been to. Not only is the equipment fantastic, clean and in really good shape. But they also pair you with a trainer. Since I've been going there, I've had the pleasure of working with Annamarie. She will push you and support you and encourage you. And if you show up, you will succeed. In the time I've been going here, I've also gotten to know the other trainers along the way. Any trainer there, will be with you literally every step of the way. All of the plans are customized for you and your goals. They show you how to do things safely and very effectively. This is not a gym where you walk in the door and hop on a treadmill for 30 minutes because you don't know what else to do. You show up, you have a full workout plan waiting for you, you get a consistenly great workout.
