The Hollywood guru's guide to perfect posture 

He is the go-to physical therapist for A-listers and sports stars - now Vinh Pham is on a mission to help us all banish back pain by changing our bad habits

Office chairs can be a source of lasting back pain

Vinh Pham is the go-to posture guru for Hollywood celebrities and the sporting elite. Among those who have the LA-based physical therapist on speed dial for their aches, pains and general niggles are Jennifer Lawrence, Toby Maguire, Lorde, Michael B Jordan, and Sophie Turner.

Raised in Canada and a graduate of McGill University in Montreal, Pham, pictured below, has been a licensed physical therapist for over a decade and founder of the high-end MyoDetox clinic in LA. He has also ironed out the postural problems and muscle and joint complaints of Olympic athletes and top ballerinas and believes he can help us all to “futureproof” our bodies against chronic pain. But first, we need to get rid of our bad habits.
