Fix your posture!

The key to good posture is the position of your spine. Your spine has 3 natural curves - your neck, mid back and lower back. Correct posture should maintain these curves, but not increase them.

How Can Posture Affect my Health?
Poor posture can be bad for your health. Slouching or slumping over can lead to:
- Muscle imbalance - short tight muscles, long weak muscles
- Muscle or joint pain
- Postural Deformity

It is important to maintain a neutral spine position. Neutral spine position means
- your spine is in a position of good alignment
- least amount of stress is placed on the vertebrae and discs
- Think about sitting and standing tall by bringing your shoulder blades together.

The Posture Guarantee
-Poor posture leads to discomfort
- Discomfort leads to pain and,
- Pain leads to disability.
- Good posture helps decrease pain.
- Decreased pain leads to increased activity and,
- Increased activity keeps us healthier and happier.

Do you suffer with posture problems? Give us a call at 780-368-2440 to book your next appointment! We are here to help you!
