Dublin Posture Clinic from 2010 BODYFIRM studios welcomes the Dublin Posture Clinic, working to bring the body back into alignment to assist in the reduction of pain and aid in fitness and well being.
Posture Alignment Therapy & Pilatescan be used to great effect in overcoming many of the problems associated with bad posture.
Have you ever considered how your posture affects the way you present yourself on a daily basis or indeed its influence on your physical and mental well-being.?
How you stand, sit or move can affect how you wear clothes. And how heavy, slim, young or old you appear can and do affect how you carry yourself. And all of these things combined can impact greatly your overall physical and mental well-being.
‘Good posture is a good habit that contributes to the well being of the individual, conversely bad posture is a bad habit and unfortunately, is of rather high incidence’ Florence Kendall, ‘Muscle Testing and Fitness’, 4th edition
Does your posture cause you pain?

Therapy Clinic
Some of you may not be aware of the three wonderful therapies that are available at BODYfIRM , these therapies augment our philosophy of health through movement, posture and balance
Bowen Therapy
A neuromuscularrelease technique, using a series of gentle moves across muscle and connective tissue. A dialogue between body systems and the brain, via harmonic vibrations allows the body to make gentle and subtle adjustments that brings the body back into balance. Because it works in harmony with the body, the BOWEN Technique is incredibly effective for any muscular, skeletal, or nerve imbalance. The technique is so gentle it can be used on anyone from infants to the elderly.
