Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates how different postures affect the movement range and direction of the thorax, focusing on axial rotation and lateral flexion in 52 healthy adults aged 18-43.
- - Results show that thoracic rotation decreases significantly when starting from a flexed position compared to neutral and extended positions, while lateral flexion increases as the posture changes.
- - The findings emphasize that posture greatly influences thoracic motion patterns, which could help in understanding clinical assessments and the causes of thoracic pain disorders.
