網上的拉筋教學僅能暫時舒緩肌肉張力，但無法解決筋膜沾黏、錯位等背後的問題。
自行矯正或強行放鬆或會加劇問題，圓肩矯正須由脊醫從身體各種結構著手，才能完整的改善問題。
圓肩的代價不只影響外觀，更潛藏健康風險：
慢性痛症
肌力不平衡（胸小肌、前鋸肌、上下斜方肌）及長期使用呼吸輔助肌可導致頸、肩、背持續酸痛。[1][3][5]
影響心肺
含胸姿勢壓縮胸腔，影響呼吸效率，導致容易疲倦。[5]
肩膊活動功能下降
肌肉僵硬可改變胸大肌張力，引發肩膊痛、其活動功能下降及肌肉發力感。[2][4]
力學失衡
不良姿勢增加關節壓力，將中心向前推，致姿勢失衡及平衡力變差[6]。
註冊脊醫需從日常生活姿勢、肌肉功能及代償模式去判斷圓肩的形成。
治療目標除了減少所導致圓肩的筋膜沾黏外，還需要處理背後的力學問題，包括恢復肌肉張力及胸椎的活動幅度。
被動治療緩解過緊的關節與肌肉後，利用復康治療（強化岡下肌、中背肌肉、呼吸模式等）維持及改善肌肉功能及姿態。
