Outline of Final Research Achievements

There are many nurses who work in hospitals whose main complaints are backache, stiff shoulders, and headaches, which are thought to be caused by posture distortion. we categorized the adjustment method for each posture distortion of the nurses working in the hospital. By clarifying the self-observation and self-adjustment of the posture distortion as a methodology, we developed a "do-yo" program for nurses.This program consists of (1) self-observation: posture distortion from both sides in stationary and moving states, eye height, mouth corner height, shoulder height, hand position, pelvic left/right difference, (2) common Perform the exercise for each strain, and perform the exercise for each strain ，(3) Perform the same self-observation as in (1), and observe the improvement of the strain.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

現段階で開発されている運動療法はいずれも専門職者が健康障害からくる不良姿勢を調整しようとするものであり、本研究は、姿勢の歪みを自己観察し自己調整するプログラムを開発しようとしていることに特色があり、これはセルフケアの促進につながる。まずは看護師
を対象としたプログラムを開発し、次に一般市民を対象としたプログラムの開発につなげて、一般化を目指すことができる。
