In conclusion, goniometry is a valuable
tool in posture analysis studies. It
enables health professionals to
measure joint ROM accurately, which is
essential for the diagnosis and
treatment of musculoskeletal disorders.
However, it is important to recognize the
limitations of goniometry and to ensure
that measurements are performed by
skilled and experienced health
professionals.
