Dr. Yariv Rothman, D.C. is proud to be a facilitator for Straighten Up America in Los Angeles. A new exciting health initiative, Straighten Up America is poised to make a major impact on the health and wellness of our society. Straighten Up America and Straighten Up and Move are worldwide health initiatives geared to improve posture, structural development and individuals’ self-esteem. The vision of Straighten Up America is very simple: we envision a day when every American performs a short enjoyable spinal exercise module daily just as we brush our teeth.

Straighten Up America also includes healthy lifestyle recommendations aimed at reducing alarming levels of obesity in our children, preventing many chronic diseases and enhancing the health and well being of all Americans.

Straighten Up America is proud to be a 50th Anniversary Partner to Get America Moving, an initiative of the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports during its fiftieth anniversary year (1956-2006). The United States Bone and Joint Decade also actively partners with Straighten Up America. This prestigious research and educational initiative, created and empowered by proclamation of the President of the United States, has adopted Straighten Up America as its spinal health promotion educational program.

We have created simple invigorating activities that make a great ergonomic break or warm-up or cool-down for a longer exercise session. Dr. Rothman a doctor of chiropractic in Venice states: “As a Chiropractor and a facilitator for Straighten Up America, I am too familiar with children and adults of all ages who are experiencing challenges with posture, spinal and general health. I want to insure that people learn great spinal health habits by regularly performing the Straighten Up exercise module and practicing its healthy lifestyle recommendations.
