Intelligent Software to Detect Posture Problems

Most people know that adopting the correct posture is a critical component to achieving good spinal health, but many people are worryingly unaware of the other important bodily functions that are influenced by posture. Blood pressure, headaches, pulse rate and lung capacity are among the physiological functions most commonly affected. Breathing and hormonal production are also at risk of being influenced.
Leading chiropractors use a painless procedure called a Digital Posture Analysis to accurately assess patients’ postures. Using the latest digital technology, two photos are taken of the patient, one from the front and one from the side. These images are then fed into a computer which quickly evaluates the patients’ postures. By using sophisticated mathematics, Digital Posture Analysis is able to accurately tell these chiropractors if their patients’ postures are adding any extra pressure on their spines.
Quick, painless and sophisticated diagnostic checks like this could potentially help to discover the cause of many patients’ back pain and go a long way into providing accurate corrective treatments.
