More than 90% of individuals have an imbalance of the postural system. The
postural imbalances generate anomalous muscle tensions, in paraspinal
muscles and also in those of the lower limbs causing adaptive reactions in the
spine and in the remaining skeletal system. The process of adaptation to
anomalous solicitations involves paravertebral articulations and peripheral
articulations, such as the coxofemoral and sacroiliac articulations, the knee or
shoulder articulations. The consequences will be numerous, more or less long-

term, with the appearance of pain, stiffness and contractures, limitations of
articulations movements related to osteoarticular functional blockages and
muscular blockages, favoring in this way the deposit of arthrosis, degeneration
of the articulations and that of the intervertebral disc. In athletes it determines
predisposition to cramps, sprains, muscle numbness, tendinitis, pubalgia,
reduction of sports performance or mediocre results despite exercising. In
case of tonic postural imbalance, anomalous muscle solicitations caused by
asymmetries of the skeletal muscle chains will generate articular, ligamentous
or muscle pathologies. Depending on their importance, their origins, the soil or
the solicitations, they may express themselves differently through the
different clinical pictures. They are the different clinical expressions of
"Postural Syndrome".
Therefore, the right knowledge of the history of postural
imbalance together with the consequent pathology or osteoarticular and
muscular dysfunction allow to the insiders to establish an appropriate
therapeutic procedure which consequently would be able to eliminate all
anomalous solicitations, bringing all osteoarticular chains in balance and
causing the disappearance of pain. A balanced posture, harmonious muscle
chains and tension free articulations will be a guarantee of a normal
movement and an anatomical and physiological integrity. The absence of pain
will be the award for patients following this functional method, arthritis will
appear in old age and with a reduced intensity; in sports, performances will
improve and accidents will be reduced.
