Can getting massages correct bad posture?

[Vanessa]

if you slouch a lot and when you sit you sort of lean with your elbows on your thighs instead of sitting completely straight and then you get backache for sitting incorrectly many hours. or would i have to see a chiropractic? i don't think it's too noticeable but i slouch sometimes.

If your car is leaking oil, you can keep adding more oil to the engine, but that's not fixing the problem. Massage can work out the kinks in your body from using poor posture, but it's not going to fix the problem. You yourself have to be the one to correct it. If you go right back to your same old habits, you're going to get the same old knots, regardless of how effective the massage was at releasing them.

good posture is the best.

I'd say a massage could help if sitting in the correct position is sore after sitting in the wrong position for so long.

I'd recommend doing some core ab work outs, and workout your latissimus dorsi... building your core will help with sitting talling and help your back hurt less.
