Straighten Up

While your chiropractor can’t be there 24/7 correcting your posture, the Straighten Up app can!  Designed to act as ‘Your Pocket Chiropractor’, this app aims to address the growing posture issues and back pain problems faced by Australians.

Consisting of a set of simple exercises and taking just three minutes to complete, Straighten Up will help improve posture, stabilise core muscle groups, enhance health and prevent spinal disability.  It is an easy and enjoyable everyday program to improve your health and the way your body functions.

The exercises can be undertaken by Australians of all ages with a special program tailored for children.

Features of the App:

• Reminders: Set reminders to receive notifications about sitting right, stretching, taking breaks, drinking water and improving your posture.
• Exercises: A 3-minute spinal health program designed to improve spinal health, stablise core muscle groups and enhance health.
• Augmented Reality: Showing both good and poor posture in different settings. The augmented reality feature works in conjunction with Straighten Up postcards.
