Our moms and dads told
us about slouching. Our teachers did, too. Undoubtedly, our San Jose
chiropractor does today! Did we or do we heed
their advice? Not likely when we
were young and a very few of us who are older and wiser
today. Chiropractic Solutions understands and embraces
slouchers and poor posture folks. Come to Chiropractic Solutions for San Jose
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 isn’t good at all,
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 strained
disc fibers and raised intradiscal pressure. Therefore,
Recent research suggested 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 manner. (3) This concept of balance
makes practical sense to chiropractors and their chiropractic patients
who know well often what triggers their back pain flare-ups.
San Jose 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 San Jose back pain sufferers will agree
that even nonbiomedical issues like psychological state/stress/anxiety,
weather, sleep, diet and fatigue may trigger back pain. (4) Your
San Jose chiropractor is aware of how helpful
our San Jose back pain patients’ knowledge of
their pain boosts their recovery. Knowledge like this and
a tool can create great outcomes!
WHAT TO DO ABOUT SLOUCHING FOR BETTER POSTURE
Could today’s fancy tech help
with posture? Possibly, it may help quite a
bit! As with anything in life, feedback
is valuable; feedback influences
change. In a new study of feedback on posture
using a wearable feedback device just 15 minutes a day improved
participants’ descriptions of 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 San Jose chiropractor
– may have the best of intentions to “watch” our posture,
but when it comes down to it, we just are not very good at it on our own! Chiropractic Solutions is here to help.
