Device for enhancing awareness of head positioning

摘要

A device and an associated method for assisting in maintaining awareness of skeleton-muscular alignment includes a chest harness attachable to a user about the thorax and a head harness. Elongate tensile member segments extend from opposite ends of a back strap right at the beginning of the armpit of the chest harness. These tensile member segments are connectable at their distal ends to the feet of the user. Further tensile member segments extend from opposite ends of the back strap of the harness and are connectable at their distal ends to or about the user's hands. The headband includes an elastic cord that is wound about the headband and is connectable at opposite ends to the hands or wrists of the user.

1. A head harness comprising:
a headband attachable to and disposable around a user's head; and a tensile member wound at least one full turn about said headband so that pulling on opposite ends of said tensile member exerts a compressive force on the user's head in a plane of the headband, said tensile member being provided at said opposite free ends with rings, bands or loops for securing the tensile member to the user's thumbs said tensile member having at least a segment in the form of a bungee cord.
