Hey everybody, Dr. Brian here at Beyond Bones. One of the most common questions that we get, which has nothing to do with pain is about posture. And that question is, how exactly can chiropractic care be so helpful when it comes to improving posture, there are three answers. The third is the most important.
Lifestyle Changes and Your Work Environment
Let’s start with the first that’s ergonomic or lifestyle changes to the positioning of your workstation, we can change the desk, we can change your chair, maybe the monitor, you’re working at changes like that, and other ones as well, including sleeping position, the positioning of the seat of your car, those things can make a world of difference when combined with the other things that we’re doing as well in order to improve your posture.
Stretches and Exercises For Better Posture
The second one is stretches and exercises if we’re able to strengthen the muscles along your spine, those postural muscles which need to be stronger, and if we can stretch the ones that need to be stretched, that helps your body naturally hold an upright natural posture more easily.
Chiropractic Adjustments Improve Your Posture
The third way is the most important of all, and it’s the chiropractic adjustment see when your spine misaligns or moves out of position that can put pressure on your nerves that causes a bunch of different health problems and aches and pains. Besides that, it causes your posture to simply look off. Improving the alignment of your spine relieves the pressure from those nerves that helps you feel better heal up and it also helps you stand, sit, work, play and live in a more natural, more healthy, more attractive, more vibrant posture. Combining all three makes a world of difference.
