Panca Plana: The Postural Method that Enhances Physical and Mental Well-being
La Plana is a postural method designed for everyone: ideal for those who spend many hours sitting or standing in incorrect positions, but also for athletes who engage in intense physical activities and seek compensatory training. Thanks to its ergonomic design, it promotes postural improvement, reduces physical and mental stress, and contributes significantly to enhancing overall quality of life.
The Origin of the Method
In 2008, Giovanni Vilardi—a fitness and psycho-physical well-being expert and former Judo champion—conceived and perfected the Plana. It is crafted entirely from wood, a natural material that conveys warmth and comfort.
The Instrument

The Panca Plana consists of:
- Wooden structure: elegant and durable.
- Pads: two cushions of different shapes to ensure personalized comfort: a longer one, ideal for broad support, and a smaller, versatile one that is easily removable or adjustable.
- Ergonomic cushions: one contoured to support the lumbar curve and one moldable to adapt to the cervical (neck) area.
Accessories
- UP: An accessory that facilitates access to the equipment, ideal for those who have difficulty lying down or getting up from the floor. It also allows for exercises with negative angles and serves as a space-saving support.
- WALL: A support plate that helps correctly position feet and hands, maintaining proper posture.
- Adjustable Base: Equipped with four racks (ratchet systems) that allow you to choose the exercise angle, featuring color-coded anchoring points to highlight different usage options.
