Postural Neurology Brisbane

Postural Neurology understands posture from the deepest mechanisms that control it.

Postural Neurology understands posture by looking at the deeper neurological systems that shape and control it. By assessing how the brain and nervous system are working together, a clear and effective treatment plan can be developed. When these systems are tested and understood properly, we can work towards restoring healthier upright posture and maintaining it over time.

The neurology of posture can be viewed through seven key components:

Motor System
Sensory System
Cerebellum
Brainstem (and various components)
Visual System
Vestibular System
Spinal interneurons and peripheral integrations

Postural Neurology gives your osteopath a structured and comprehensive method for assessing your posture through a Brain Based Postural Assessment. Once the underlying patterns are identified, treatment focuses on improving alignment through hands on osteopathic care and strengthening balance and coordination through Brain Based Postural Correction techniques carried out at home.

In simple terms, Postural Neurology addresses problems at their source by working with the brain systems that govern posture, balance and movement. Rather than only stretching tight muscles or strengthening weak ones, it aims to update the underlying control mechanisms, allowing your body to function more smoothly, efficiently and with fewer compensations.
