As an osteopath, I’ve noticed a real surge in the number of people coming into the clinic wanting to improve their posture. This is partly because, since COVID, our daily habits have shifted dramatically. Many of us adapted to working from home, often at makeshift desks, dining tables, or even propped up in bed. Hours spent hunched over laptops, scrolling on phones, or slouching through endless video calls have taken a real toll on our alignment.
At the same time, online meetings have made people more aware of how they sit and move; it’s hard not to notice your rounded shoulders or forward head position staring back at you on screen. This new self-awareness, combined with physical strain and tension, has led more people to seek support to realign, rebalance, and restore their posture than ever before.
