The Posture Advantage

Mobility, Alignment & Daily Function

“Strong posture starts where you’re not looking.”

Fix Your Posture Before the Year Ends

You know those muscles you can’t see in the mirror?

Yeah — those.
The ones behind you.

They might not get the same attention as your chest or arms, but they’re crucial for helping you look better, feel better, and move better — especially when it comes to posture.

Poor posture doesn’t just make you slouch.
It’s linked to:

• Increased back and shoulder pain

• More frequent headaches

• Higher injury risk

• Long-term effects on overall health and movement

One of the best ways to fight back?
Strengthen and mobilize the muscles behind your shoulders and upper spine.
