Posture Self-Assessment Test
This short checklist aims to build your awareness of everyday habits that can affect your posture.
This checklist is not a diagnostic tool; it is a general, awareness-focused self-assessment only.
How Should I Interpret This Posture Self-Assessment Test?
This posture self-assessment test consists of 10 simple questions covering common habits and signs that can negatively affect posture in daily life. Each item you check counts as one point; your total score is grouped into a low, moderate or high awareness level. This grouping is not a medical diagnosis or scoring system — it's purely an educational self-assessment tool meant to build general awareness of your posture. Regardless of your score, if you notice persistent neck, back or low-back pain, restricted movement, or a visible postural asymmetry, a comprehensive posture analysis by a physiotherapist is the most reliable way to clarify the underlying cause.

My score was high — what should I do?
