Straighten Up Australia
SUA is an ongoing community service initiative of the CAA, and is an easy and enjoyable everyday program to improve your health and the way your body functions. Consisting of a set of simple exercises and taking just three minutes to complete, SUA will help improve posture, stabilise core muscle groups, enhance health and prevent spinal disability. The exercises can be undertaken by Australians of all ages with a special program tailored for children. The exercises can be completed at any time of day but are most beneficial when they form part of a daily routine. It’s hoped that over time all Australians will take a few minutes every day to care for their spinal health, just as they do for their dental health. Studies conducted overseas indicate that 90% of people who adopted the exercises as part of their daily routine reported a postural improvement. Approximately 80% reported that their backs are more comfortable and that they have better core stability after practicing the activities for several weeks.
