Understanding and Evaluating Posture

Understanding and Evaluating Posture

Posture is one of the most talked-about concepts in clinical practice—and one of the most misunderstood.

For years, therapists have been taught to identify “bad posture” and correct it. But in reality, posture alone rarely explains pain, and trying to force clients into ideal positions often does more harm than good.

In this course, Dr. Jonathan Kuttner takes a modern, practical approach to posture—focusing not on appearance, but on function.

You’ll learn how to observe posture without jumping to conclusions, how to interpret what you see in the context of the individual, and how to determine whether posture is actually relevant to movement, load, and symptoms.

A simple clinical framework—observe, contextualize, test, and decide—runs throughout the course, giving you a clear and repeatable way to assess posture in practice.

Just as importantly, you’ll develop the confidence to move away from outdated “posture correction” models and instead focus on what actually improves outcomes: movement, adaptability, and function.

By the end of the course, posture will no longer feel like something to fix—but something to understand and use as part of better clinical decision-making.
