Global Postural Reeducation

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receiving GPR treatment during 45 minutes to stretch muscular chains

Procedure: Global Postural Reeducation

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Participants not receiving GPR treatment

Interventions

Global Postural Reeducation PROCEDURE

Experimental group is treated in a 45 minutes GPR session, with three postures: the first was for the anterior muscular chain with the patient lying supine on a couch with arms at 45 degrees, hips open, and feet in opposition on top of the table. This posture is maintained 25-30 minutes. The second GPR posture, to stretch the posterior muscle chain, the participant is positioned with legs elevated, for 12-15 minutes. Third position is with the participant standing and 2-5 minutes to integrate the postural corrections. During all the time, the physiotherapist use manual therapy for stretch the muscles under the official rules of GPR techniques. Group control do not receive any technique.
