Forward Head Posture isn't just aesthetic—it's a mechanical disaster for your spine. Our specialized physiotherapy approach identifies the root cause of your "T-Rex" posture and builds a personalized roadmap to recovery.

That's 2,700 hours of spinal stress per year.
Your head weighs approximately 10-12 lbs (5kg) in a neutral position. However, as you tilt forward to check a text or read an email, gravity acts as a lever.
By the time you reach a 60-degree angle (typical for phone use), the effective weight on your cervical spine increases to 60 lbs (27kg). That is equivalent to carrying an 8-year-old child around your neck.
Postural dysfunction rarely isolates itself to one area. The "Forward Head" creates a domino effect throughout the upper body.
Our assessment looks for the "Upper Crossed Syndrome" pattern: tight chest muscles pulling shoulders forward, while deep neck flexors become weak and inhibited.
Self-Check:
Stand with your back against a wall. If the back of your head doesn't naturally touch the wall without you forcing it, you likely have Forward Head Posture.
Frequency of reported symptoms in patients with FHP
We don't guess. We assess. Our evidence-based framework ensures every stretch and exercise is targeted to your specific mechanics.
Analysis of ear-to-shoulder alignment and thoracic curvature (kyphosis) in standing/sitting.
Identifying trigger points in the Trapezius, Levator Scapulae, and Suboccipital muscles.
Measuring cervical Range of Motion (ROM) to pinpoint joint restrictions vs. tissue tightness.
Prescription of deep neck flexor strengthening and scapular retraction drills.
Recovery isn't just about massage. It requires a multimodal approach. Active rehab (exercise) comprises the largest portion of long-term success.
Comparing key metrics before and after a structured postural correction program.
