The availability of alternative therapeutic options can hamper the growth of the global posture corrector market. There are various non-invasive treatments that provide posture correction without the need of wearing posture correctors. Some of the major alternative options include physiotherapy, yoga & exercise therapy. Physiotherapy aims to correct posture through gentle manual techniques like massage and stretching exercises. It helps to relax tight or overused muscles while strengthening weak muscles. According to the data published by WHO, approximately 1.5 billion people have limited access to physiotherapists globally. However, physiotherapy has proven effective for posture correction in the long run without the discomfort of wearing extra accessories. This has diverted many potential customers away from posture correctors.
