Posture correction price list 2023 latest version download

At present, there is no official unified version of the 2023 posture correction price list that is common across institutions in China. I spent 2 weeks visiting 17 different types of correction institutions in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, new first-tier cities, and third- and fourth-tier small towns. I asked 8 rehabilitation practitioners/orthodontists who have been in the industry for more than 3 years and compiled a reference price list with an error within 15%. If you need it, just pull it to the download channel at the end of the article. You don’t have to search for a long time to find a reliable one.

To be honest, I thought there was a unified pricing standard at first. It wasn’t until I accompanied my cousin who works in new media and edits videos for 12 hours a day to find a correction institution last month that I realized that the price difference can be three to four times. A chain sports rehabilitation studio in Jing’an District, Shanghai charged 8,800 for 12 round shoulder and hunchback correction classes. When I went back to the rehabilitation department of a community hospital in her hometown of Kunshan, Suzhou, the same frequency of training classes with the guidance of a rehabilitation teacher was only 3,200. I was stunned at the time.

There are basically three ways to correct posture on the market now, and the charging logic is completely different. Don’t feel cheated just by looking at the price. You must first figure out what type you are looking for.

Most of those who take the exercise rehabilitation route are studios run by rehabilitation departments of tertiary hospitals and certified rehabilitation practitioners. The fee is calculated separately for assessment + treatment. The first assessment will check your muscle tension and joint mobility. In severe cases, X-rays will be taken. The cost ranges from 300 to 1,200, and a single training session is 400-1,200. I used to have dizziness due to my cervical vertebra straightening. I went to the rehabilitation department of Peking University Third Hospital. A single class plus the registration fee only cost over 500. After 10 classes, my dizziness symptoms were basically gone. Oh, by the way, if the scoliosis exceeds 20 degrees, you must first go to the hospital to see an orthopedic surgeon. Don’t just find an institution for correction. If the scoliosis exceeds 40 degrees, there is a high probability that you will need surgery, which cannot be solved by conventional posture correction. Most of the practitioners in this type of institution look down upon orthopedics or fitness-related corrections, thinking that "it's just nonsense to break joints without stability or to practice without medical foundation." It is suitable for friends who already have organic symptoms such as pain and numbness.

There is also a type of traditional bone-setting and chiropractic schools, which are mostly opened in traditional Chinese medicine clinics and specialized bone-setting studios. The single fee is 200-800, and usually 3-5 times is a small course of treatment. Last time I had a stiff neck and was in so much pain that I couldn't lift my head. The bone-setter downstairs did 380 at a time. He could turn my head right away with two clicks. However, this type of master also often complains that exercise recovery is "too slow, the bones have not returned to their positions, and no matter how much muscle training is done, it is useless." However, I would like to remind everyone that if you choose this type, you must see whether the person has a medical qualification certificate. I have seen a lot of news about broken cervical vertebrae in street shops where people start working after just one week of training.

The third category is the most common one. Posture correction classes offered by fitness studios are usually provided by fitness instructors who have passed NASM-CES or ACE correction-related certifications. A single class is 200-600, and more than 20 classes are purchased. The large class packages usually offer a 70-20% discount. It is suitable for girls who have no problems but want to improve their rounded shoulders and hunched back and dress to show their temperament. For example, my colleague wanted to practice right-angled shoulders before the wedding, so he signed up for this kind of class. It costs 3600 for 12 classes. The effect is indeed obvious. Of course, the controversy is not small. Many practitioners with medical backgrounds feel that such coaches have no medical knowledge. If there is a spinal problem that is not detected, blind practice will only make it worse.

Oh, by the way, if you are a student and don’t have much budget, in fact, the sports rehabilitation majors of many sports colleges will have public welfare correction activities. Basically, they only charge a cost fee of one or two hundred times, which is time-consuming. My cousin later found the public welfare project of the Sports Rehabilitation Department of Suzhou University. It only costs 1800 for 12 classes, and the effect is quite good.

There are also some premium factors that everyone should be aware of. For example, the premiums of Internet celebrity institutions are really fierce. I went to an Internet celebrity correction studio in Hangzhou, which specializes in "correcting XO-shaped legs in 7 days." I dare to quote 1,800 for a class, which is more than twice as expensive as expert rehabilitation classes in tertiary hospitals. Most of the money is spent on Douyin streams, and the price/performance ratio is really not high. Also pay attention to hidden consumption. For example, the quotations quoted by some institutions only include class fees. Customized orthopedic insoles, elastic bands and other assistive devices will cost extra. Good customized insoles basically cost 1,000-3,000. When asking about the price, be sure to ask if there are any additional charges.

I would also like to remind everyone of the pitfalls I have stepped into. I took a 99 yuan posture correction experience class for cheap. After going there, it was evaluated that my pelvis tilted forward and my legs were lengthened. It would be effective if I signed up for 30 classes of treatment, which cost more than 20,000 yuan. It is exactly the same as the pre-sales routine of gyms. Don’t believe this kind of "low-price attracting traffic and then pushing big class packages", it is really unreliable.

Finally, let’s talk about the reference price list I compiled. It listed the reference prices for three types of institutions, different city levels, and five common types of correction items (rounded shoulders and hunchback, high and low shoulders, pelvic anterior/posterior tilt, XO-shaped legs, mild scoliosis within 20 degrees), and also added 3 that I summarized myself. Key points to avoid pitfalls, there are no messy routines. If you need it, just put a "1" in the comment area or send it to you privately. It's completely free. It's just the information you came up with. You can use it as a reference. After all, the rent and labor costs in each city are different. The final quotation must be based on the actual situation of the local organization.
