摘要: Provided are embodiments of a posture measuring device for determining the forward head posture of a patient. Forward head posture (FHP) is the anterior positioning of the cervical spine that is caused by sleeping with the head elevated, extended use of computers and cellphones, lack of developed back muscle strength and lack of nutrients such as calcium. This deformation is associated with headaches, neck pain, thoracic spine pain and symptoms of pain, parastesia or numbness in the upper extremities. The device of the disclosure provides a numerical measurement of the displacement of the skull from the vertical as defined by a datum between the two most posterior points of a patient's spine.
