Root Causes, Not Symptoms
Our holistic approach realigns your body from the inside out. By fixing the imbalances that cause slouched shoulders, forward head posture and misaligned hips, we improve posture in a way that feels natural and sustainable.
Our team of posture correction specialists help you stand taller, move better and live free from the discomfort of poor posture — through movement-based techniques that restore proper muscle activation and joint alignment.
Our Training Process
A structured, effective process to correct posture at the root.
In a 90-minute session, your posture specialist assesses your gait, posture, diet and lifestyle. Gait analysis is crucial — it reveals how misalignments in movement affect your posture. A diet assessment helps address bloating, which can drastically impact posture, and supports building fresh muscle and tissue where you need it.
We conduct 60-minute weekly sessions to target the asymmetries and weaknesses found in your gait cycle. These sessions focus on rebalancing the body and improving your movement patterns.
As your body balances and integrates these patterns, your posture naturally improves — leading to relief from any associated chronic pain.

Real Result
FP Burleigh practitioner Jen's postural improvements with her client Matt over an 8-month period. If you're searching for a personal trainer or posture specialist, these results should help you decide.
"Before starting FP I was in chronic pain from head to toe on the left side of my body and had suffered constant headaches for most of my adult life. Not only was it the physical pain, but it was taking a toll mentally — causing low mood, irritability and not being able to concentrate or think straight. Performing the simplest of tasks was becoming a real struggle in my work and family life. After multiple physiotherapy and remedial massage appointments I was left angry and frustrated when I realised my pain was not getting any better, with no hope in sight. That's when I found Functional Patterns. After 8 months training with Jen I can now move better, with more tension in my body and I'm completely pain free. Mentally I feel great now and at 35 years old this is the best I've ever felt in my life. Starting with FP has been a life saver — thank you Jen."

Why See A Specialist
Do you suffer from neck pain, chronic pain, stiff muscles and joints, or impaired range of motion? Each of these symptoms can trace back to poor posture. Bad posture causes you to over-work your neck muscles during daily activities — leading to neck pain and even headaches or migraines.
Poor posture also affects your core. Many people know weak core muscles can lead to poor posture — but it goes the other way too. Plenty of people spend hours in the gym working their core yet simply cannot feel it activating, because we need proper alignment of the human body to activate the core correctly.
At Burleigh Biomechanics, we use the Functional Patterns Method to correct poor posture for the long term. Our specialist correction exercises target the movement patterns and asymmetries that lead to poor posture.
