<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;"><span style="color:#333333;"> </span><strong>The Posture Pal Posture Cushion (shown here without the washable cover) uses gravity to reverse the effects of poor posture. The image above illustrates the cushion&#8217;s unique contours and scientific design.</strong></p>
<ol style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">
<li>This special recess allows the head to assume a neutral or slightly backward position simultaneously stretching the muscles in the front of the neck and relaxing the muscles at the back.</li>
<li>The soft neck bridge encourages a normal curve in the neck.</li>
<li>Internal rotation of the shoulders is a major problem with poor posture. These special recesses allow the shoulders to relax and rotate outward.</li>
<li>This upper back bridge exerts a gentle forward force that relaxes the back and expands the chest area.</li>
<li>The upper back bridge has a gentle decline to the lower back area.</li>

<td></td>
<td colspan="3" width="557">
<ol>
<li>Lay Posture Pal® on the floor, bed or couch.</li>
<li>Lie supine on Posture Pal® with head in headrest.</li>
<li>When lying on the floor, bend knees or place a pillow under the knees so the lower back rests comfortably against the floor if needed.</li>
<li>To utilize Posture Pal for an exterior rotation stretch, face palms up.</li>
<li>Use up to 20 minutes. Overstretching can occur if overused.</li>
<li>Exercises can be used on Posture Pal® and is recommended.</li>
<li>For best results, exercises should be done to strengthen the postural muscles.</li>
<li>DO NOT sleep on the Posture Pal &#8211; it is not a pillow.</li>
</ol>
<p>Depending upon ones condition, Posture Pal&#8217;s placement of the head and neck in normal postural position of 0% FHP may be too extreme for some patients, especially those with a high degree of FHP and excessive kyphosis. If you are an elderly person, or someone who has a serious medical condition, please consult a medical specialist before use of this product.</p>
<p>If Posture Pal is too uncomfortable, fold a towel and place in the headrest. This will allow your head to be elevated and reduce stress in the region of your neck. After a couple of weeks, once you are acclimated in the position, reduce the thickness of the folded towel until it&#8217;s not needed any longer.</p>
<p>Consult a medical specialist to see if Posture Pal® is right for you. Before starting an exercise program, consult a medical specialist as some exercises may be dangerous, especially if diagnosed with Osteoporosis or other medical conditions. Overuse of Posture Pal® can overstretch tissues. Do not overuse.</td>

<h2 style="text-align:center;padding-left:30px;"><span style="color:#1d6fe2;">TESTIMONIALS</span></h2>
<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;All my life I have had &#8217;rounded shoulders&#8217; and not a very good standing position, since the first use of Posture Pal my shoulders have pulled back and I have noticed the strain I felt in my neck and shoulders disappear. I am more upright and my chest size seems to have increased because it is pushed out now instead of being pulled under.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;padding-left:30px;"><a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=1630471"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-109" title="Purchase you PosturePal.Now" src="http://propriocussion.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/posturepal-buynow1.jpg?w=98&#038;h=25" alt="Purchase your Posture Pal Now" width="98" height="25" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">Posture Pal is extremely comfortable and I find it very easy to completely relax and drift off to sleep often. Wonderful product!!! &#8212; Ian J Holmes, Bowen Therapist, Bradford, England</p>

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;I have never seen any device work quicker with greater patient compliance, not even traction. Posture Pal works. Period&#8221;.<br />

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;I just received the Posture Pal today &#8211; and I absolutely love it. I knew what my neck has looked like since chiropractic school, and have been using all sorts of ideas trying to restore the curve to my neck. I had a lateral film taken a few months back, and to my dismay, my neck was still as straight as it was when I left school three years ago. Anyways, after using it for 20 minutes on my lunch hour today, I could notice a difference already &#8212; so I had my CA take a lateral film to see if anything changed. I couldn&#8217;t believe it For the first time in years, there was a curve! Obviously, I still have work to do, but I was amazed to see a physical change on x-ray after one use!&#8221;<br />

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;After so many years of physical abuse playing in the NBA, my body was really sore and tired. Then I discovered Posture Pal. What a relief! For the first time in many years my upper body is relaxed and free of pain.&#8221;<br />

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;It&#8217;s working great! My shoulder is no longer hurting and my shoes are wearing properly (the actual sole of the shoe and not the side of the sole). I&#8217;m not a chiropractor, just a person who found your web site while searching for answers to my problem which I had figured out was impingement of my right shoulder because of improper posture because of the FHP. I no longer walk with my face pointing downwards, and I now see more of the world <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  I do have to remind myself about my mental habit if I starting seeing my shoes again when walking.&#8221;<br />

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;I have been using Posture Pal daily for about a month now in conjunction with physical therapy, and the results are amazing. My posture has improved remarkably, and my neck and shoulder aches are almost completely gone. This is probably one of the only products in the market that treats FHP problems with convenience, ease, and efficacy. I strongly recommend it.&#8221;<br />

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;Brilliant!!! There isn&#8217;t a product out there as easy to use or as enjoyable as Posture Pal.&#8221;<br />

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;Using PosturePal for only two days and I can already see and feel an improvement in my posture. My round shoulders aren&#8217;t round anymore! Amazing!&#8221;<br />

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">
<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;Anyone who is concerned with proper posture and reducing physical stress on the body needs to have this technology in their office.&#8221;<br />

<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;I was never really excited about selling products to my patients because most other things I have looked into didn&#8217;t produce a consistent positive result until I discovered Posture Pal. My patients notice an immediate difference in their ability to improve their posture.&#8221;<br />
&#8211; Dr. Marshall Dickholtz, Jr., Northbrook, IL
</p>
<p style="text-align:center;padding-left:30px;"><a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=1630471"><img title="Purchase you PosturePal.Now" src="../files/2009/05/posturepal-buynow1.jpg" alt="Purchase your Posture Pal Now" width="98" height="25" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;As a chiropractor, in addition to adjusting, I utilize several different types of devices for spinal and postural correction. I try them all myself so that I can relate to what the patient is experiencing and also because I too have a degree of &#8220;Forward Head Posture&#8221;. Now, the Posture Pal is the only one I use for myself for 20 minutes, 5 days a week. Some of the devices I use are fairly aggressive and not tolerated well by some patients however I haven&#8217;t found anyone who can&#8217;t tolerate the Posture Pal.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;padding-left:30px;"><a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=1630471"><img title="Purchase you PosturePal.Now" src="../files/2009/05/posturepal-buynow1.jpg" alt="Purchase your Posture Pal Now" width="98" height="25" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;padding-left:30px;">&#8220;PosturePal has been really good for me. As long as I can remember my right hip has stuck out and therapy hasn&#8217;t held it in place but now both my hips and shoulders are level.  Great stuff!&#8221;<br />
