Our moms and dads told
us about slouching. Our teachers did, too. Certainly, our Fort Wayne
chiropractor does now! Did we or do we listen? Not most of us when we
were young and a very few of us who are older and wiser
now. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc understands and embraces
slouchers and poor posture folks. Come to Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc for Fort Wayne
neck pain and back pain relief from
your slouching ways. Leave Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc with tips on how
to keep posture-influenced pain and
distress at bay.
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 doesn’t 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 isn’t good either as it put a strain on
disc fibers and increased intradiscal pressure. Consequently,
Recent research suggested using a “free posture” that it was not
too kyphotic or lordotic curved. Thus it 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 know well often what triggers their back pain flare-ups.
Fort Wayne CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS CAN LIST THINGS
THAT TRIGGER THEIR BACK PAIN
Back pain sufferers can explain to 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 Fort Wayne 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
Fort Wayne chiropractor understands how helpful
our Fort Wayne back pain patients’ knowledge of
their pain helps them recover. Knowledge like this plus
a tool can create great results!
WHAT TO DO ABOUT SLOUCHING FOR BETTER POSTURE
Could today’s fancy tech help
with posture? Possibly, it may do so quite a
bit! As with anything in life, feedback
is good; feedback influences
change. In a new study of feedback on posture
using a wearable feedback device for only 15 minutes a day improved
participants’ reports on physical functioning, emotions,
energy/fatigue, confidence, overall stress in addition
to neck and back posture compared to a group who did
not use the device. (1) We – including your Fort Wayne chiropractor
– set out with the best of intentions to “watch” our posture,
but in the end, we just aren’t very good at it on our own! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc is here to help.
