RPG

RPG is a treatment method created in 1980 by physiotherapist PH Souchard. Through his research on postural organization, he concluded that posture depends on the tension of static muscles (those that oppose the action of gravity).

He defined the way these muscles are organized as Muscle Chains. An evaluation is conducted to determine which chains have shortened the most and how they relate to the reason for consultation. Treatment postures are used to stretch them gently, progressively, and sustainably. These are active postures where the therapist guides the stretching and corrects compensations. The goal is to trace the symptom back to the primary cause of postural misalignment. Sessions are conducted individually. Session frequency is usually weekly.
