Introducing the revolutionary scapular gilet, delivering effective control of shoulder structure malfunctions including, Scapular Dyskinesia, otherwise known as winging of the shoulder blade(s)
Through a series of components, this specially engineered device, in the style of a gilet jacket, improves the position of the scapulae (shoulder blades), correcting wrong shoulder movement, strengthening shoulder structures, improving shoulder and arm range of movement, and crucially, offers pain relief.
Importantly, the gilet provides vital biofeedback enabling the wearer to identify wrong shoulder movement, and in particular, 'winging'. Body symmetry and core muscle recruitment are also improved for overall benefit in strength and function, and pain relief.
Research by London consultant and shoulder guru Mr Ian Bayley shows how important it is to identify wrong shoulder position and the consequences of ignoring it, read more about Scapular Dyskinesis (shoulder malfunction).
KEY POINTS,
✔ Although powerful, does not create dependency, instead promotes a ‘core on’ posture
✔ Maintains shoulder blade (scapulae) position, close to the chest wall, adding stability and strength to shoulder function
✔ Encourages better musculoskeletal alignment for improved balance, strength and nerve-flow
✔ Provides essential bio-feedback for a better understanding of how 'good posture' should feel and when established, instills subconscious automatic correction
✔ Lifts the diaphragm up and away from pelvic activity, reducing strain in the lower back
✔ Encourages opening of the chest cavity improving balance and breathing
✔ Stimulates a brain-body connection promoting a sense of knowing where your shoulders are
✔ Training the brain to subconsciously override a tendency to adopt bad posture and to achieve symmetry without thinking about it
Surprising and Powerful Links Between Posture and Mood
WHAT IS GOOD POSTURE?
MEDICAL FINDINGS
✔ Our studies indicate that by wearing the gilet for as little as two days consecutively, musculoskeletal alignment and muscle patterning can be significantly improved, even after removing muscle memory retains good posture, although for how long depends on the individual.
✔ Within as little as 20 minutes of wearing tension in the shoulders, and neck can disappear. This may depend on the severity and can take up to two days
✔ As a useful diagnostics tool i.e. for unexplained hip pain. In an example case, chronic pain was eliminated unmasking an un-diagnosed shoulder blade winging condition, Scapular Dyskinesis a debilitating and previously incurable condition affecting a considerable number of people who are often unaware of it. The gilet is now providing the only means of managing this condition.
✔ May help prevent the onset of sciatica and is known to alleviate back and sciatic nerve pain
✔ Improvement in breathing has also been reported. COPD sufferers have found benefit and as a result, have been able to reduce steroid puffer use
✔ Can improve muscle soreness [*DOMS] recovery time after working out *delayed-onset muscle soreness

WHY IS GOOD POSTURE SO DIFFICULT TO ACHIEVE?
Our shoulder blades dictate the position of our shoulders and shoulder blades have few mechanoreceptors (the means by which the brain connects to them). This, therefore, means we don't know where our shoulders are.
Combine this with the brain and its reluctance to accept us upright (The brain wants us safely down on all fours), generations growing taller, living longer, long hours spent hunched over mobiles and computers plus, tiredness then you begin to see why we ALL have posture issues.
