Preventive wellness is a regular work approach aimed at maintaining posture, movement quality and general well-being in the absence of a specific complaint or diagnosis.
Desk-based work, a sedentary lifestyle or repetitive daily loads can affect musculoskeletal comfort over time; regular and well-structured movement can help to balance this load.
The person's daily life, way of working and goals are assessed; within this framework a sustainable movement and posture programme is created.
When an existing health condition is involved, the programme is arranged in line with the physician's opinion. The aim is to support the maintenance of comfort and movement quality over the long term.
It is not compulsory. Over time, however, desk work, inactivity or repetitive loads can affect posture and movement quality. A preventive programme aims to balance these effects before they turn into a noticeable complaint.
Following the assessment, one or two sessions a week are planned to suit the person's goal. As the programme progresses, home practice takes a larger share and clinic sessions may be spaced out.
A personalised plan is created, covering advice on sitting position and the work environment, mobility of the neck, upper back and low back, trunk and hip strength, breathing, and short movement breaks.
A physiotherapist personalises the programme based on an assessment, checks movement form one-to-one and targets weak links. It complements a general fitness programme rather than replacing it.
In a free preliminary consultation (15 min) your questions are answered; if appropriate, a detailed assessment (60 min) is planned.
