About – The Posture Scale Analyzer
The Posture Scale Analyzer was developed as a response to requests of chiropractors from the US and Europe looking for a bilateral scale, to indicate the lateral weight distribution of their patients.
The first generation of the PSA was a Bilateral Scale that provided limited information on the posture of the patient.
The second generation of the PSA is a quadruple force plate. It provides unlimited information on the weight distribution, the center of pressure, stability and more.
Additionally, the PSA provides a biofeedback tool for training and educating patients to control their balance.
The PSA was developed with the collaboration of chiropractors and physical therapists to meet their explicit needs. We constantly receive valuable feedback from our customers to continuously improve the system. Periodically, software upgrades are provided free of charge to our customers.
