Hope for Groton Back and Neck Pain Due to Slouching and Poor Posture
Our parents and caregivers told us about slouching. Our teachers did, too. Certainly, our Groton chiropractor does now! Did we or do we heed their advice? Very few of us if any when we were young and maybe a small number who are older and wiser today. Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office understands and embraces slouchers and poor posture folks. Come to Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office for Groton neck pain and back pain relief from your slouching ways. Leave Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office 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 linked to things like pain, depression, and stress as well as lower levels of general health, emotional well-being, and energy/fatigue. (1) Spinal angles need to be respected 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 had back pain or not. (2) Slouching while lifting is not 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 way. (3) This concept of balance makes practical sense to chiropractors and their chiropractic patients who know well often what triggers their back pain episodes.
Groton CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS CAN LIST THINGS THAT TRIGGER THEIR BACK PAIN
Back pain sufferers can tell 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 top the list. Some Groton back pain sufferers will concur that even nonbiomedical issues like psychological state/stress/anxiety, weather, sleep, diet and fatigue may trigger back pain. (4) Your Groton chiropractor is aware of how helpful our Groton back pain patients’ knowledge of their pain boosts their recovery. Knowledge like this and a tool can create great results!
WHAT TO DO ABOUT SLOUCHING FOR BETTER POSTURE
Could today’s tech-y gadgets help with posture? Possibly, it may help 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 increased participants’ descriptions of physical functioning, emotions, energy/fatigue, confidence, overall stress as well as neck and back posture compared to a group who did not use the device. (1) We – your Groton chiropractor too – set out with the best of intentions to “watch” our posture, but when it comes down to it, we just are not that observant on our own! Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office is here to help.
