Poor posture can be a major cause of low back pain, but the good news is it’s fixable! With targeted exercises and new habits, you can alleviate discomfort and improve your posture.
Picture your spine forming a gentle S-curve when viewed from the side. Your head should sit directly over your cervical spine, and your pelvis should be neutral, aligned with your hip joints.
An exaggerated S-curve can push your head and neck forward. Weak abdominal and spinal muscles can lead to increased lordotic curvature, placing extra strain on your lower back.
Exercises to help regain your posture:
- Stretch and strengthen your neck extensors for better head positioning.
- Focus on strengthening your upper back to elevate your chest.
- Incorporate deep breathing exercises to expand your chest.
- Stretch your shoulder and pectoralis minor muscles to roll your shoulders back.
- Strengthen your lower back and abdominal muscles with pelvic tilt exercises, avoiding sit-ups that can worsen lordosis.
Transforming your posture means improving your overall well-being. With consistent effort and these exercises, you can achieve a healthier, more comfortable stance.
