The iPosture posture monitor is a small device was created to serve as an aid to men and women in improving their posture, which in turn, not only benefits their health but also enhances their appearance. Worn as a pendant, clipped to clothing or adhered directly to the skin, the iPosture immediately begins improving a user's posture by vibrating intermittently when the user slouches and continuing to vibrate until posture is corrected. The iPosture is designed to be worn for approximately four hours per day for the first two to four weeks in order to improve posture by ingraining good behaviors in the user. Once a user learns to correct him- or herself, he or she will continue to do so even when not wearing the device. However, the user should continue to use the device two to three times per week thereafter to maintain posture improvement.
The iPosture monitor was developed to be the smallest, most user-friendly posture improvement device on the market. Just one inch in diameter, the iPosture is designed with intuitive technology that senses when the body slouches, and it alerts the user with a brief vibration to correct it.
The idea for the iPosture was born while Memphis-based neurologist Moacir Schnapp, M.D. and his wife Elma Schnapp, M.D., were writing Young, Sexy and Healthy: The Ten Best Exercises for Your Posture, a book which combines their more than thirty years of tailoring specific workouts for thousands of patients with spinal pain and musculoskeletal diseases. The book describes exercises geared specifically toward improving posture and can serve as a companion piece for the iPosture.
