Our moms and dads warned
us about slouching. Our teachers did, too. Certainly, our Tonawanda
chiropractor does today! Did we or do we heed
their advice? Very few of us if any when we
were young and maybe a small number who are older and wiser
today. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation understands and embraces
slouchers and poor posture folks. Come to Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation for Tonawanda
neck pain and back pain relief from
your slouching ways. Go away with tips on how
to avoid posture-influenced pain and misery.
SLOUCHING, LIFTING, POOR POSTURE AND PAIN
Slouching posture is just not good,
not good for your spine, your health, your mood. Slouching is connected
to things like pain, depression, and stress as well as lower
levels of general health, emotional well-being, and energy/fatigue. (1) Spinal
angles need to be abided by which slouching doesn’t do. The pelvic angle, the angle of pelvic tilt, body mass index
and thoracic kyphosis angle had a significant role in
whether a person had back pain or not. (2) Slouching while
lifting is not good either as it strained
disc fibers and raised intradiscal pressure. Therefore,
Recent research recommended using a “free posture” that it was neither
too kyphotic or lordotic curved. Thus it used both active and passive
spine elements in a more balanced way. (3) This concept of balance
makes practical sense to chiropractors and their chiropractic patients
who are well aware what triggers their back pain bouts.
Tonawanda CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS CAN LIST THINGS
THAT TRIGGER THEIR BACK PAIN
Back pain sufferers can explain to us
chiropractors what they think brings on their
pain. Active movements (35%), static postures (28.1%), overdoing a task (5.3%),
biomechanical issues, lack of exercise, work and medications are on
the list. Some Tonawanda back pain sufferers will concur
that even nonbiomedical matters like psychological state/stress/anxiety,
weather, sleep, diet and fatigue may trigger back pain. (4) Your
Tonawanda chiropractor is aware of how beneficial
our Tonawanda back pain patients’ knowledge of
their pain helps them recover. Knowledge like this plus
a tool can create great outcomes!
WHAT TO DO ABOUT SLOUCHING FOR BETTER POSTURE
Could today’s fancy tech help
with posture? Potentially, it may do so quite a
bit! As with anything in life, feedback
is good; feedback influences
change. In a recent study of feedback on posture
using a wearable feedback device for only 15 minutes a day increased
participants’ descriptions of physical functioning, emotions,
energy/fatigue, confidence, overall stress as well as neck and back posture contrasted with a group who didn’t use the device. (1) We – including your Tonawanda chiropractor
– set out with the best of intentions to “watch” our posture,
but when it comes down to it, we just are not that
observant on our own! Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation is here to help.
