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.
