Our moms and dads told
us about slouching. Our teachers did, too. Certainly, our Murfreesboro
chiropractor does today! Did we or do we pay attention? Not most of us when we
were young and a very few of us who are older and wiser
now. Most Chiropractic Clinic understands and embraces
slouchers and poor posture folks. Come to Most Chiropractic Clinic for Murfreesboro
back pain relief and neck 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 isn’t good at all,
not good for your spine, your health, your mood. Slouching is linked
to things like pain, depression, and stress in addition to lower
levels of general health, emotional well-being, and energy/fatigue. (1) Spinal
angles must be respected which slouching do
not do. The pelvic angle, the angle of pelvic tilt, body mass index
and thoracic kyphosis angle played a significant role in
whether a person experienced back pain or not. (2) Slouching while
lifting is not good either as it strained
disc fibers and raised intradiscal pressure. Therefore,
Recent research suggested using a “free posture” that it was not
too kyphotic or lordotic curved. This used both active and passive
spine elements in a more balanced way. (3) This concept of balance
makes good sense to chiropractors and their chiropractic patients
who know well often what triggers their back pain flare-ups.
Murfreesboro CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS CAN LIST THINGS
THAT TRIGGER THEIR BACK PAIN
Back pain sufferers can tell us
chiropractors what they think initiates 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 Murfreesboro back pain sufferers will concur
that even nonbiomedical issues like psychological state/stress/anxiety,
weather, sleep, diet and fatigue may trigger back pain. (4) Your
Murfreesboro chiropractor values how beneficial
our Murfreesboro back pain patients’ knowledge of
their pain helps them recover. Knowledge like this plus
a tool can make great results!
WHAT TO DO ABOUT SLOUCHING FOR BETTER POSTURE
Could today’s tech-y gadgets improve posture? Potentially, it may do so quite a
bit! As with anything in life, feedback
is good; feedback changes habits. In a recent study of feedback on posture
using a wearable feedback device just 15 minutes a day boosted
participants’ reports on physical functioning, emotions,
energy/fatigue, confidence, overall stress as well as neck and back posture contrasted with a group who did
not use the device. (1) We – including your Murfreesboro chiropractor
– may have the best of intentions to “watch” our posture,
but when it comes down to it, we just aren’t very good at it on our own! Most Chiropractic Clinic is here to help.
