Posture correction in London

Have you ever wondered how to fix your posture and eliminate your poor postural habits? Pain occurs when we overload our bodies with stress and pressure from daily life. Correcting and improving your posture will enable you to feel and function better.

You don't have to be in pain to care about your posture

Some people come to us because of pain that keeps coming back. Others have noticed something in the mirror or in photographs: a head that sits further forward, rounded shoulders, a body that looks less balanced than it used to, and they want to do something about it before it progresses.

Whichever it is, your health is our priority, and we understand the frustrations that come with your body failing you. We are experts specialising in a technique called Advanced Biostructural Correction (ABC™), helping people get out of pain and live their life to the fullest.

Posture is more than 'sitting up straight'

Through everyday wear and tear, your bones may become stuck forward in a position the body cannot self-correct, largely because there are no muscles to pull them back. When this happens, the body compensates and twists up, placing unnecessary stress and tension on your muscles, joints, and nerves. No amount of willpower fixes that.

Anything from major accidents or injuries such as car accidents, trips and falls to the day-to-day poor postural habits such as prolonged sitting at poor desk setups, heavy bags, and unsuitable footwear causes our bodies to compensate after pushing us forward.

How we correct posture

We are a chiropractic clinic, and at Posture & Wellness we use ABC™. It works by correcting only the bones that have shifted forward and that the body can't self-correct on its own. As a result, the body settles back into alignment, posture improves, and function is restored.

The effects of ABC™ are often visible and felt immediately. We also take digital postural photos to track results and record the body's changes, so you can see your progress for yourself.

What happens at your initial consultation

  1. Step 1: A detailed case history

    Your chiropractor will take a detailed case history, asking questions that help build a complete picture of your body and your health.

  2. Step 2: A thorough examination

    A comprehensive physical examination, including orthopaedic, neurological, and chiropractic tests, to assess your muscles, joints, and nerves.

  3. Step 3: Detailed postural photos

    We'll also take postural photos so you have a clear starting point to track your progress. This appointment lasts up to an hour.

  4. Step 4: Your report of findings

    At your second visit your chiropractor will walk you through everything they found and explain what's going on in your body in a way that makes sense. Together, you'll discuss a recommended care plan with no obligation to proceed. If it's appropriate for you to start care and you're happy with the recommended plan, your first adjustment can take place at this appointment.

How long does posture correction take?

This depends on your body, your history, and what you're hoping to achieve. We won't know until we've examined you. Based on your report of findings, we'll talk you through a recommended plan, so you know what to expect (and with no obligation to proceed).

This treatment is not a “quick fix” but we consistently help patients overcome their pain and long-term health conditions by identifying and correcting the underlying causes.

Structural correction is for you if…

You want to correct the underlying cause of your pain. You want to restore your body's function and movement. You want to start reaching your health goals.

We are committed to educating you on all aspects of postural health and wellbeing, so you understand your body and know how to look after your posture in everyday life.

Patient story

“Can't recommend Bianca and the team at Posture and Wellness enough!

The progress I have seen in the past 7 weeks of me visiting has been amazing!

I looked into visiting a chiropractor because of my bad posture and because I sometimes find myself walking inwards and getting hip pain. Bianca is so knowledgeable and explained to me that a lot of my other symptoms (that I thought were unrelated) would improve through adjustments, I am headache free for a month now which is huge for me! The staff are all so friendly and you always feel reassured and welcome, everything is explained in detail throughout your unwinding journey so you're always clued up and you become more aware of your own body. You have photos taken to prove your progress and you always have advice and tips available to you. Very excited for my first progress report this week! Thank you Bianca and team!”

Frequently asked questions

Can a chiropractor help with posture?

Yes. At Posture & Wellness we are the experts in posture correction, and we use ABC™ to get to the root cause rather than chase the symptom.

Is 30 or 40 too late to work on my posture?

No. Through everyday wear and tear, bones can become stuck forward at any age, and ABC™ works on the structure itself rather than on how old you are. Book a free discovery call and tell us what you have noticed.

Do I need to be in pain?

No. Plenty of people come to us because of how their posture looks, or because they want to look after their body for the long term.

Will the adjustments hurt?

Most people find them comfortable, and many tell us they feel a bit lighter or more upright afterward. We'll always explain what we're doing before we do it and work at a pace that's right for you.

Do posture correctors or braces work?

A brace holds you in a position; it does not correct the bones that have shifted forward. Read our guide before you buy one.

  • “Have been with the practice for about two years and in my 15 years living with a chronic back condition, I didn’t think I would ever be able to do this many things I can now do thanks to Bianca. All the receptionists are also amazing, kind, supportive and great at making delish flavoured water”

  • “I spent a lot of time researching chiropractors in London before deciding to book with Bianca and her team as I was looking specifically for a chiropractor specialising in posture correction to continue with care I had received overseas. Bianca is very professional and highly skilled at posture correction. Each session she explains why she is performing each of the movements and always answers any and all questions I have. I have really appreciated that Bianca and her team take a wholistic approach with clients and provide ample education about sitting, sleeping, footwear, etc to help us maintain the best results in everyday life, rather than just performing a correction. I have been attending sessions regularly for about 4 months and I can really notice the difference in the way I hold myself, but this is also evident in regular progress photos. Highly recommend Bianca and her amazing team!”

  • “Really recommend! At first I was a bit skeptical, but Bianca and her team completely proved me wrong. You can see changes in your posture immediately during the session. They are incredibly helpful and supportive and they even organise workshops where they explain everything in detail, from footwear to sleep. I’ve honestly learned so much and feel a real difference. Highly recommend Bianca and her amazing team!”

  • “I’ve been in therapy with Bianca at Posture & Wellness for 2 months now, twice a week and and after each session I can feel a difference. Bianca is amazing, she always ensures she explains what she is doing and what you can do to help maintain the posture in between adjustments. My posture has seen a dramatic improvement during this time, aswell as the hump i have at the back of my neck slowly decreasing. I can even feel a difference in how easier it is to take a deep breath after each session! I can’t recommend her highly enough!”

  • “I’ve had an amazing experience with my chiropractor at Posture & Wellness Chiropractic Clinic! I’ve witnessed my spine transforming and reaching for the most upright position. Chronic back pain and bad posture have both been vanished with the help of the ABC method (Advanced BioStructural Correction). I feel like my body has been rejuvenated and that I’ve learned to walk, sleep, stand and seat in the correct way again! Bianca, my chiropractor, has taken really good care of my vertebrae while the friendly and caring environment at the Clinique made me feel welcomed and comfortable since day one. I highly recommend giving this a try :)”

  • “A true way to regain your posture and wellbeing for life! Bianca takes you on a journey to unwind and realign your spine with small painless adjustments giving a long lasting result of natural posture - not forced! . I’m now much more upright, can sit comfortably for longer periods, my migraines have subsided and energy much more stable. Highly recommended if you want to get to the root of an existing condition or improve your general health and wellbeing.”

  • “Where do I even begin! I have been going to the Posture & Wellness clinic for over 6 weeks and I cannot tell you the change that I have experienced within this short amount of time. I have been suffering with mid-back pain due to Scoliosis for over 5 years and already, I can already see a huge difference in my posture and the pain has significantly reduced. Both Bianca and Antea are so caring and attentive, and they are always happy to see you. They are constantly giving out tips to help your posture when you are away from the clinic and run workshops which I found really helpful. I even bought a new pillow which has worked wonders! Bianca's use of the Advanced Biostructural Correction technique has really made a huge difference with my back. If you are looking for a fantastic chiropractor that is passionate and genuinely wants to help you, then look no further.”
