How does it work?

The Posture Corrector is an aid that helps to re-educate a correct posture.

By holding and supporting the back in an ideal position, your body is no longer straining body parts that are wrongly loaded. By doing so, your body will then have reduced stressful pain and starts to administer the new adapted posture via our proprioceptors. Our proprioceptors are like sensors in our body telling our brain where our body is in relative to space. When our body is poorly positioned due to poor habit in sitting or standing, our body overtime got used to this and our proprioceptors will tell you that the poor posture is your norm. Therefore, by placing your body back to where it should be using the support, your body will feel very awkward initially as your wrongly adjusted proprioceptors will keep telling you to go back to old position. But through time, your body and proprioceptor will readjust to whatever you tell it to go, so after usually 4-6 weeks of good positioning, your body will no longer slouch as it has got used to the ideal postural position.
