GPR (Global Postural re-education)

Global postural re-education is a scientific method for the evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of pathologies that affect the muscle-skeletal system.  The treatment begins with symptomatology in order to define the cause of the problem.  Different postural treatments are employed in a progressive manner, to achieve stretching of tonic muscular chains (which are responsible for retraction, shortening and stiffness of the muscles), for pain relief and improvement of postural alterations.
                             
The treatment sessions are individual and last approximately one hour, once a week, except in specific cases (acute pain, scoliosis in growing patients) for which a medical prescription is required.
