It was performed to encourage for Physical Therapist to apply the theory of center of the human body and segments in clinical situations. This study was investigated literarily on center of the human body and segments. Methods which search for the center-2 types, that is, method using reaction broad and segmental method-was suggested. The center location difference of gravity in human body depends on individual character. Generally, the center location is in kent of 2nd sacrum, that is, at 55% of height from foot. The center of each segment is on ’’link’’. In the first place we must how the weight of segment we can search for the center easily. Mean segment coater location of extremities is at 42.33% from each proximal end, and mean center of head and trunk lies at 45%.
