🤯 CRAZY TRUTH BOMB! Your “tech neck” isn’t just about your neck anymore... new research is revealing a shocking, direct link between that casual slouch and chronic shoulder pain!
We’ve all been told to sit up straight, but the science is getting wilder. Recent biomechanical studies and EMG analyses are showing how prolonged forward head posture (that classic “stepneck” or “text neck”) actually alters the scapular kinematics and glenohumeral rhythm. Think of it like a chain reaction: your head shifts forward, your upper back rounds, and your shoulder blade loses its ideal position. This puts abnormal stress on the rotator cuff tendons and the entire shoulder joint capsule, leading to inflammation, impingement, and that persistent ache you can’t shake!
It’s not just “bad posture” – it’s a measurable physiological dysfunction! Don’t let your smartphone turn into a shoulder pain trigger. At Arch Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation, we use evidence-based approaches to correct these postural imbalances, alleviate your pain, and empower you with the knowledge to prevent recurrence.
