Reprogram your body from the inside out
Posturology in Ottawa. Reprogram Your Posture, Unlock Your Potential
At Maximize Athletic Movement, we offer advanced posturology services designed to reprogram your body from the inside out. Using a brain-based, sensorimotor approach, posturology helps correct the root causes of postural imbalance, not just the symptoms.
If you struggle with chronic tension, fatigue, recurring pain or can’t seem to perform to your full potential despite the efforts you make, you may just not be addressing the foundation of your imbalances. That’s where Posturology comes in.
Proven neuro-based techniques
What Is Posturology?
Posturology is the scientific study of posture regulation, focusing on how the brain integrates input from key sensory systems, especially the eyes, feet, inner ear, and jaw, to maintain balance against gravity.
When these sensory pathways are immature, disorganized, the signal sent from your nervous system to create posture and movement will compensates with poor muscle tone, asymmetries, and inefficient movement patterns. Over time, this leads to a cascade of compensations, dysfunction, discomfort, and reduced performance.
At Maximize Athletic Movement, we use posturology to assess and correct these imbalances using proven neuro-based techniques.
Science-backed manual therapy
Who Can Benefit from Posturology?
Athletes wanting to reach the highest levels of performance

How Posturology Works
Posturology works by retraining the brain’s sensory map of the body, starting with a static postural assessment. We evaluate:
- Eye dominance and convergence
- Feet asymmetries and Proprioception
- Vestibular (inner ear) input and jaw alignment
- Tonic vs. phasic muscle activation
- Primitive movement integration and motor patterns progressions
By working with all these inputs, we help your body naturally reset and realign itself for better function, reduced fatigue, and improved posture across all three planes of movement.
Healthy posture is built during early development
The Foundation of Movement Begins Early
As highlighted in the Aligned and Optimal eBook, healthy posture is built during early development through primitive reflex integration and motor patterns like crawling, creeping, turning, and standing. When these aren’t fully developed, postural issues often follow into adulthood.
Through posturology, we reintroduce and reprogram these foundational movements—giving the nervous system a new, balanced baseline towards a new body schema.
A gold standard in the field
A Neuro-Functional Approach Backed by Science
Our posturology services are guided by years of education in anatomy, biomechanics, neurology, and motor control. Marc-Andre Major is CIES-trained in global postural reprogramming, a gold standard in the field. This approach is not about stretching more or strengthening further, it’s about helping your brain connect with over 650 muscles more efficiently.
