This practical session is designed to give students essential basic insight into the muscle groups involved in maintaining good posture, some of the pitfalls for students spending study time in poor postures which might lead to discomfort. It will involve learning simple exercises and understanding good working postures. Participants should wear warm, comfortable clothing and bring with them a towel.
**This is followed by a relaxation workshop. You can book one or the other, but not both.**
The session will be run by Karen White, physiotherapist. Karen is a Chartered and Registered Physiotherapist.
