1 James J. Lehman, DC, MBA, DABCO The posture of homo sapiens is a complex biomechanical continuum, which involves the function of muscles, ligaments, fascia, nerves, osseous structures, neuromuscular control, the habits, and psyche of the human. University of Bridgeport College of Chiropractic James J. Lehman, DC Why is posture important to you, the chiropractic physician? Ideal posture promotes efficient musculoskeletal system functions. Why is posture important to you and your patients? 1
2 Ideal Posture As the capsule and articular ligaments become progressively imbalanced (tight in some areas relative to other areas), there is progressive dysfunction in the proprioceptive messages being sent to the central nervous system with regard to where the joint is in space. This produces what is called a proprioceptive deficit. Proper neuromechanical function promotes smooth and full range of motion without pain. Paul Chek As an eccentric motion (rotation) is produced secondary to the failure of respective dynamic stabilizers (muscles), the joint ligaments and capsules are progressively stressed. Normalize neuromechanical function Reduce spinal proprioceptive deficits Architectural v. Adaptive Postural Changes Restore optimal joint function, prevent injuries minimize joint and disc degeneration. Posture may be the result of an imbalance or the cause of a clinical problem Let s discuss 2
3 Architectural v. Adaptive Postural Changes Anatomical short-leg is an architectural or structural problem, which causes scoliosis (adaptive) and cervicogenic headaches due to lateral head tilt (adaptive) and resultant myofascial trigger points in the upper trapezius. There is no one normal posture Perfect posture is a rarity Joints should move in their mid range Efficient posture maximizes function and reduces injury and would be considered an Ideal Posture Bad habits create eccentric movements and dysfunction Excessive sitting Heavy backpack Slouching One-sided activities Posture Evaluation: Methods and Observations Postural Muscle Weakness v. Inhibited Postural evaluation mindset Stack of blocks Balanced blocks = stability Unbalanced blocks = instability Correction begins at the inferior block Disuse muscle weakness requires exercise to strengthen Inhibited muscles due to neurologic reciprocal inhibition, which is caused by the antagonistic postural muscle requires correction of the postural deficit and neuromusculoskeletal reeducation 3
4 Chronic muscle hypertrophy will not be painful upon palpation Acute myospasia will react with pain upon palpation Occipital level Shoulder level 3. Iliac crest level 4. Genu varus/ valgus 5. Pes planus 6. Inversion or eversion of feet Head posture (neutral, anterior, or posterior) Lordotic cervical and lumbar curves and kyphotic thoracic curve Military Posture Tight lower back and hip flexors Weak anterior abdominals initially, hamstrings lengthen, then adaptively shorten Kypholordotic Posture Tight suboccipital neck extensors, hip flexors, serratus anterior, pectorals, and upper trapezius (if scapulae are abducted) Weak cervical flexors, upper thoracic spinae, external abdominal oblique, and mid and lower trapezii (if scapulae are abducted) 4
5 Swayback Tight hamstrings, internal abdominal obliques, lumbar erector spinae, and ipsilateral tensor fascia lata (if lateral pelvic distortion) Weak hip joint flexors (unilateral), external abdominal obliques, lower and mid trapezii, deep cervical flexors, and ipsilateral gluteus medius (if lateral pelvic distortion) Flatback Tight hamstrings and abdominals Weak hip flexors (unilateral) Upper Cross Posture Forward head position Loss of cervical lordosis 3. Shoulder rolled in and forward 4. Hyperkyphotic thoracic spine Upper Cross Posture Tight short muscles Suboccipital Pectoral, anterior shoulder 3. Upper trapezius Upper Cross Posture Weak long muscles Mid and lower trapezii Serratus anterior Lower Cross Posture Anterior pelvis Protruding abdomen 3. Increased lumbar lordosis 4. Eversion of feet 5
6 Lower Cross Posture Tight short muscles Psoas Lumbar erector spinae 3. Hip adductor Lower Cross Posture Weak long muscles Hip extensors, gluteus maximus Abdominal 3. Gluteus medius and minimus A lateral curvature of the spine Acquired (adaptive/idiopathic) or congenital (structural or architectural) Architectural asymmetry Forward Head Posture For every inch of FHP the weight carried by the lower neck increases by the weight of the head. Wedge vertebra or hemivertebra May cause: Neck, shoulder, or arm pain Headaches 3. Biomechanic al stress Observations External auditory meatus anterior to the acromion Hypertrophy of the sternocleidomastoideus 6
7 Tight or overactive muscles: SCM and/or suboccipital muscles Anterior cervical muscles Upper trapezius Levator scapulae Pectoral Clinical Correlate Palpate the suboccipital muscles while seated and standing Reduced muscle tension with sitting indicates pelvic postural stress is contributing to FHP Tight overactive muscles Ipsilateral lateral neck flexor Contralateral scalene or intrinsic rotator Sternocleidomastoideus Upper trapezii 3. Weak or underactive muscles: Cervical extensors Lower and mid trapezii Serratus anterior Observation Head tilt presents unlevel mastoid processes Rotation of the head presents asymmetry with one occiput posterior in relation to the opposite occiput. Weak underactive muscles Contralateral lateral neck flexor Ipsilateral intrinsic rotator muscles 7
8 Observe the horizontal line between acromia is unlevel Weak underactive muscles Ipsilateral high shoulder lower and mid trapezii Ipsilateral low shoulder upper trapezius 3. Observations Scapulae unleveled Asymmetrical abduction (lateral) and adduction (medial) Scoliosis and handedness Tight overactive muscles Ipsilateral high shoulder upper trapezius and/or levator scapulae muscles Ipsilateral low shoulder lower trapezius and pectoralis minor muscles Observations Medial borders of scapulae are lifted posteriorly from the ribs Tight overactive rhomboids Weak underactive serratus anterior muscle Perform pushup test and inspect for increased winging Tight overactive muscles Ipsilateral abduction = serratus anterior Ipsilateral adduction = rhomboid 8
9 Weak underactive muscles Ipsilateral abducted = rhomboid and middle trapezius Ipsilateral adducted = pectoralis major and minor Observations Rounding of shoulders or internal rotation of the upper extremities Extensor aspect of hands visible from anterior view and palms with posterior Tight overactive muscles = latissimus dorsi and/or pectorals Weak underactive muscles = Mid trapezius Clinical Correlate: Usually observed with FHP What is your opinion? As a chiropractic physician, you are the postural expert and patients expect you to provide advice 9
