posture adjustment

Shifting body position

Posture adjustment is the act of shifting one's body position, typically to relieve discomfort or achieve better alignment.

The term appears in ergonomic contexts—office workers making posture adjustments throughout the day—and in medical or therapeutic settings where practitioners help patients correct habitual positioning: The chiropractor recommended regular posture adjustments.
