How much does posture correction cost

At present, the price range of a single postural correction in China is very large, ranging from tens of yuan to several thousand yuan. The specific cost depends entirely on your correction needs and the qualifications of the service provider you choose. There is no unified pricing standard.

A while ago, I accompanied my cousin who has round shoulders to look for an orthodontic institution. I walked around the market and found a blind massage parlor downstairs that has been open for almost seven years. The master has been doing physical therapy for almost 20 years. He said that ordinary sitting for long periods of time can cause tension in the shoulders and neck, as well as chest tightening. It can help you loosen and adjust it easily. It only costs 80 at a time. It does stretch your shoulders and back a lot on the day after pressing it. However, my cousin sat in the office typing the keyboard for a day and then returned to its original shape the next day. To put it bluntly, this kind of thing only relaxes the muscles but does not exercise strength, and it will not last long.

Later we went to a chain sports rehabilitation studio in the business district. A coach with a National Vocational Rehabilitation Certificate first spent 20 minutes doing a full body posture assessment, took three photos of the front and back of the standing position, and also measured her plantar pressure. He said that her high and low shoulders were not a shoulder problem at all, but were caused by the pelvic tilt belt caused by long-term cross-legged legs, and they had to be adjusted up and down. A 45-minute correction class costs 380. If you buy a 10-time package at one time, you can get 320 for a single session. The first three sessions focus on loosening the tight muscles in the waist, abdomen, shoulders and back, and the next seven sessions also include training on the core and weak muscles of the shoulders and back. She has taken it almost eight times now. When she went to take her ID photo last week, the photographer did not ask her to straighten her shoulders, saying that she was much more upright than before.

If pathological postural problems have already occurred, such as confirmed scoliosis, long and short legs caused by trauma, and anterior pelvic tilt accompanied by joint pain, the price will be much higher. My colleague’s patella was dislocated after a ski fall. After recovery, he was left with long and short legs. He went to three Rehabilitation and correction in the Sports Medicine Department of Hospital A costs 1,200 RMB per session. If you go to a high-end private rehabilitation institution, where internationally certified rehabilitation therapists provide one-on-one customized plans, you can get upwards of 2,000 RMB per session. These are all medical properties and are not ordinary relaxation adjustments, so the fees are naturally high.

Of course, many people now say that posture correction is an IQ tax. This statement is actually not unreasonable. I have visited many Internet celebrity studios before, and I found a few girls who have practiced fitness for half a year and dared to call them "correctors." There are also many people who say that they have been practicing for three months following free videos on the Internet, and they can round their shoulders and stretch forward without spending a penny. This kind of thing is true, and most of them are people with minor problems and strong self-discipline.

So there is no point in worrying about how much to spend per session. First, understand your own situation. If it is just mild tension caused by sitting for a long time, it may be better to practice more breast expansion exercises. If you really want to find an agency, don’t just go for low or high prices. First, check whether the other party has relevant qualifications and whether you can do a free evaluation first. After all, body posture adjustment is a slow process, and no matter how much money you spend on the wrong person, it will be in vain.
