Our moms and dads told
us about slouching. Our teachers did, too. Certainly, our Manchester
chiropractor does today! Did we or do we listen? Not most of us when we
were young and maybe a small number who are older and wiser
today. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries accepts and welcomes
slouchers and poor posture folks. Come to Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries for Manchester
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 in addition to lower
levels of general health, emotional well-being, and energy/fatigue. (1) Spinal
angles must be abided by which slouching do
not do. The pelvic angle, the angle of pelvic tilt, body mass index
and thoracic kyphosis angle displayed a significant role in
whether a person experienced back pain or not. (2) Slouching while
lifting is not good either as it put a strain on
disc fibers and raised intradiscal pressure. Consequently,
Recent research recommended 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 manner. (3) This concept of balance
makes good sense to chiropractors and their chiropractic patients
who are well aware what triggers their back pain bouts.
Manchester CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS CAN LIST THINGS
THAT TRIGGER THEIR BACK PAIN
Back pain sufferers can explain to us
chiropractors what they believe 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 Manchester back pain sufferers will concur
that even nonbiomedical concerns like psychological state/stress/anxiety,
weather, sleep, diet and fatigue may trigger back pain. (4) Your
Manchester chiropractor is aware of how beneficial
our Manchester 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 fancy tech improve posture? Possibly, it may do so quite a
bit! As with anything in life, feedback
is helpful; feedback influences
change. In a new study of feedback on posture
using a wearable feedback device just 15 minutes a day improved
participants’ reports on physical functioning, emotions,
energy/fatigue, confidence, overall stress in addition
to neck and back posture contrasted with a group who didn’t use the device. (1) We – your Manchester chiropractor too
– set out with the best of intentions to “watch” our posture,
but when it comes down to it, we just aren’t that
observant on our own! Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries is here to help.
