Essex, Mass., July 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Perseus Athletics, a company committed to the development of advanced sports medicine and posture training products and Bay State Physical Therapy, a full service physical therapy group with 28 centers servicing Massachusetts, announced today the formation of a strategic alliance to bring a revolutionary approach to posture related ailments. The PostureTek™ Biofeedback Posture Training System will provide a constant feedback reminder to patients, speeding recovery and relieving pain and discomfort associated with poor posture.
"We're pleased to have entered into this important alliance with Bay State PT," said Bruce Anderson, Perseus’ Vice President of Sales. "We feel this is a dynamic first step in establishing the credibility for the revolutionary technology incorporated in the PostureTek System.” During a recent symposium in Waltham, representatives of the local clinical community enthusiastically applauded the product and its capabilities. “At Bay State Physical Therapy, we treat a wide range of orthopedic and neurological conditions”, said Steve Windwer, PT, DC, president of Bay State PT, “and the importance of correct posture can not be underestimated in preventing and treating a range of injuries including back and neck pain and shoulder impingement; the PostureTek shirt is a unique tool that addresses these problems.”
Significant literature alerts medical professionals of the adverse health effects linked to improper posture. The experienced therapists at Bay State PT will help individuals with a wide range of problems / issues related to posture. The PostureTek shirts have an embedded microfiber which is attached to a battery-powered activation disc. The disc has a silent vibration reminder that vibrates when posture falls below the levels established by the BayState Physical Therapists. This alerts the patient to return to a proper position. The unisex shirt, worn during exercise and normal daily activity, helps support the evolution to proper posture.
