Posture Analysis: Initial In-Person Consultation

Attentively addressing your requests, needs, and expectations for the improvement of your posture.

During the consultation, we'll discuss your objectives and aspirations for the program, which may include alleviating body pain due to poor posture, addressing movement disorders, rehabilitating from accidental injuries, enhancing postural stability in sports or yoga, and more.

At the gym, participants will first complete a 7-minute walk followed by a 3-minute brisk walk or jog. These activities will be video-recorded to help you visualize your dynamic posture later on, to monitor your improvements, and to tailor your training accordingly.

Simultaneously, the instructor will analyze aspects such as lumbar and cervical spine usage, pelvic rotation, hip movement, limb coordination and asymmetry, abdominal pressure, and kinetic chain habits from a sports medicine perspective.

After reviewing the recorded movements, the instructor will pinpoint pain areas and their causes based on your consultation and video analysis. They will then offer suggestions for dynamic postural improvement and outline the direction of your training and massage regimen in line with your goals.

Understanding this posture improvement program's benefits and objectives

The instructor will explain the advantages and goals of various posture correction training options available within the program, based on your consultation and their sports medicine expertise. Emphasizing the close relationship between dynamic postural stability and breathing, the instructor will highlight the importance of kinetic chain training that simultaneously enhances both aspects.

Balance ball exercise and palpation

While analyzing your movements, Hironori will palpate your muscles to identify the root causes of your poor posture in terms of myofascial, muscle tone, joint range of motion, kinetic chain, and skeletal structure. This will help provide the most effective training tailored to your objectives.

The training will take place in a gym equipped with a 20-meter mirror, allowing you to see your entire body in motion and set clearer goals.

Crafting your personalized program

Following a 30-minute interview to establish your dynamic postural stability goals, you'll embark on a 60-minute dynamic postural training and analysis session. Customized to your fitness level, the program will focus on muscle, myofascial, and kinetic chain analysis, ensuring an enjoyable workout experience: a personalized practice program lasting 2 weeks, with direct feedback from Hiro.

Early in the process, usually just after the diagnostic, you will have a customized massage treatment, and then another a little later on, when your new posture begins to naturally take shape.

Before your first massage session

After analyzing your goals and posture during our initial consultation, we will create a customized massage session designed to yield effective results in a shorter time frame. We'll explain the functional anatomy related to your massage objectives before starting the session.

All massage sessions take place at Spa Mantra Chiang Mai, in a comfortable and professional atmosphere.

Personalized Posture Improvement Exercises

Observation is key in the creation of your own postural improvement program

It is time to establish your Personally Tailored Training Program

During the first 7 days, you will have at least 2 sessions with Hiro to establish and learn the customized exercises based on your goals. You will also receive at least two personalized massages to facilitate rapid and long-lasting changes in your body.

Identifying Areas for Improvement in your dynamic posture.

With the help of your coach, through training and massage, you will be able to clearly identify areas for improvement and gain a better understanding of the exercises and stretches to perform at home.

If you practice at the gym with Hiro, at the beginning of each training session, you will do a 10-minute posture review, usually simply walking, to see how you have changed from previous sessions.
