University of Macau Moon Chun Memorial College invited registered physiotherapist Mr Sio Fu Seng to provide a workshop on “Body Form and temperament”, guiding students in correcting the bad postures.

In this event, Mr Sio explored the relationship between posture and appearance, emphasizing the importance of good posture for self-confidence and how others perceive us. Common poor postures among university students include hunching, rounded shoulders, flat feet, and knees that turn inward. These bad postures not only affect appearance but can also lead to health issues. Additionally, the connection between emotions and posture is crucial; negative emotions often accompany constricted postures, while positive emotions encourage more open postures.

Physiotherapy plays a key role in correcting poor posture. Professional physiotherapists can assess individual posture issues, develop targeted exercise plans, and provide necessary guidance and support. Through these methods, physiotherapy not only helps students improve their posture but also enhances overall physical and mental health. Through this workshop, we hope that the participants can apply what they have learned to their daily lives, continually improving their self-image and body forms.
