An ideal posture is one in which there's least muscular activity, so that we can sustain the posture for a longer time. Hence there will be little impact on the core structures. In bad posture, muscle strains and one cannot use muscular power for posture, and core structures like soft tissues in joints like disc and meniscus and cartilage linings bears impact starts degenerating. Posture correction can be done after detailed physical evaluation and considering his job and how he spends most of the time. The missing components and antigravity muscle groups will be put on a therapeutic exercise regime. Depending on the job, workstation modification might be needed to lessen the impact (ergonomic advice). Posture aids such as belts, harnesses or tapes may be suggested by your physiotherapist if needed.
