We live our lives, we move through the stages from rolling off a bed, tripping as a child to falling off a bike; to a ski accident; to a stint at boxing, martial arts or doing an army assault course.
Through our life our body adapts, we roll with the punches, we pick ourselves up and carry on.
We develop habits such as sitting with our legs up to one side, to crossing our legs at the ankle or the knee, having one ankle on the opposite knee, holding our hands in our hips, sleeping with one arm above our head…
We lean forward for ever increasing lengths of time at small pieces of technology, crafting, doing intricate icing and more and we do not notice our body is adapting to the most commonly held postures and becoming less capable of ‘bouncing back’ to full elasticity.
Posture matters! … and when you need help getting back to neutral try Bowen therapy!
