Posture refers to the positioning of the various parts of the body in relation to one another. Proper alignment is important in preventing many of the problems that develop from the stresses of work, aging, and fatigue. Proper posture helps prevent fatigue, headaches, and chronic muscular tension. Good posture can also help improve circulation and digestion, enhance sleep, and more. In addition to contributing to healthier emotional states and overall vitality, good posture can make exercise more enjoyable, improve overall fitness and enhance performance.
As a chiropractor, I stress how important it is to improve your alignment to improve your health. Misalignments in your spine can cause nerve pressure, and nerve pressure can cause many health problems. If you notice your posture is "sagging", see a chiropractor. We are experts in evaluating and treating conditions of the musculoskeletal system.
