The reason that Bodypoint created its cool “Hip Belt User’s Guide” is explained right on the guide’s front cover: “The pelvis is the key to postural alignment as it dictates the position of the trunk, head and extremities.” Then this User’s Guide goes on to talk about ideal posture and common challenges, such as posterior pelvic tilt, pelvic obliquity, anterior pelvic tilt and pelvic rotation. Bodypoint hip belts and buckles are described and discussed throughout as potential solutions. The User’s Guide is a great resource for rehab professionals and can help explain positioning issues to referral sources, clients and caregivers. And it’s free via pdf download by visiting www.bodypoint.com (or call 800-547-5716 for more information).
