Lesson Overview

21.2 – Posture Assessment Checklist: A posture assessment helps you understand how your body holds itself while standing, walking, and sitting, because small misalignments can turn into discomfort if ignored too long. By reviewing head placement, shoulder height, hip alignment, knee tracking, and foot position, you discover where the body leans or rotates more than it should. The goal is not to look perfect but to recognize patterns that add stress on bones and muscles every day. Balanced posture allows weight to spread out evenly so no single area works harder than necessary, especially in the neck and lower back. Assessing posture also builds awareness, helping you catch slouching before it becomes a habit. Simple cues like lifting through the chest or keeping ribs aligned with the hips can create instant improvement. When differences from side to side appear, that shows where strength and flexibility need more attention. A printed or digital checklist makes progress measurable over time. Posture assessment becomes a professional way to take ownership of your health, because seeing what needs improvement gives you a clear strategy for correcting it. The more your alignment matches how the body was designed to move, the more energy and comfort you gain in your daily routine.
