Posture is often thought to be at the heart of Pilates, but is it still relevant? Can "faulty" posture really cause pain or dysfunction? What is dysfunction anyway? We take a look at all these topics and a few more in relation to posture. Links - Variability in the location of bony landmarks makes postural assessment meaningless here
- Experienced physiotherapists have 1.5-2cm error when palpating ASIS and PSIS here
- Posture is highly variable and poorly reproducible here
- Lordosis, range of movement and lumbo-pelvic rhythm are all highly varied in people with and without back pain here
- No consensus on causality of spine postures and low back pain: A systematic review of systematic reviews here
- No relationship of lumbar lordosis with hip flexibility or abdominal strength here
- No relationship between pelvic tilt, lumbar lordosis and abdominal strength here
- No relationship between pelvic asymmetry and back pain here
- Exercise probably can't change posture anyway here
