Exercise at the Gym Won't Fix This

When you have Forward Head Posture (FHP) your neck literally doesn't work right. FHP and loss of the normal curve (lordosis) go together all the time. Losing the curve means the muscles don't work properly.


Going to the gym and pumping iron (which I do encourage people to after their spine has been corrected) simply won't fix the problem.


The reason is that you have postural muscles. Going to the gym only helps with phasic muscles. What's the difference?


Postural muscles cannot be controlled by thinking about them. Phasic muscles are can. In other words- you can choose to flex your arm (biceps) but you can't choose to wiggle one of your backbones.


Our program is specifically designed to work with your postural muscles.
