Abstract

This study aims to apply an exercise rehabilitation program to salaried employees who have improper body postures and investigate the program’s effect on posture correction and to provide base data that can help the development of an exercise program and educational guidance related to sports and rehabilitation. To achieve the aim of this study, an individual with body imbalance and pain was selected from salaried employees in their thirties of B company in Gyeongsan, Gyeongbuk Province, and 1 adult who agreed to self-selection was taken as the subject of study. To conduct this study, Body Style, a posture measurement device, was used to perform front analysis (shoulder height, pelvis height, leg length discrepancy, bowed legs, center of pressure), side analysis (forward head posture, upper body tilt, pelvic inclination angle) and back analysis (angulus inferior scapulae, spinal curve, calcaneal angle). The exercise rehabilitation program, divided into three phases (posture recognition, correction exercise, Foam Roller SMR), was implemented 10 times over 8 weeks, 60 minutes each time. Every week, the intensity and frequency were adjusted gradually. As a result, changes in posture correction are as follows. First, after the exercise rehabilitation program was implemented, it was shown that shoulder height, pelvis height, leg length discrepancy, and center of pressure improved on the front of the body. Second, after the exercise rehabilitation program was implemented, it was shown that forward head posture and upper body tilt improved on the sides of the body. The pelvic inclination angle increased, but it falls under A-3, which is a normal grade. Third, after the exercise rehabilitation program was implemented, it was shown that angulus inferior scapulae and spinal curve improved on the back of the body. Fourth, after the exercise rehabilitation program was implemented, it was shown that bowed legs and calcaneal angle improved. In conclusion, the results collectively showed that the exercise rehabilitation program had a positive impact on salaried workers’ posture correction.
