Rounded shoulders? This simple pec stretch can help. 🙌

Tight pecs pull your shoulders forward, creating that hunched posture you see everywhere. Stretching them helps open up your chest and bring your shoulders back where they belong.

Try this daily for 30 seconds to 2 minutes each side and watch your posture improve.

Posture is how your skeleton is aligned when standing, moving, exercising and sitting. Posture is dynamic - it’s your relationship with gravity. Gravity pulls you straight down, muscle keeps your skeleton upright against it. Gravity is always in effect.

Good posture is not subjective. When your body is aligned, you maximize your lung capacity and breathing, you have fluidity in your movement, and you move efficiently.

Good posture reflects a well-functioning nervous system. Poor posture will cause coordination issues.

Follow along to learn how to improve your posture.

Consistency is 🔑

Forward head posture isn’t just a “looks” thing.

One study found that people with forward head posture showed ~30-40% worse balance/instability scores compared to people with more neutral head alignment or posture.

Why that matters: your neck has “position sensors” that help your brain coordinate balance, body awareness, and eye-head control—so when your head drifts forward, the nervous system may have to work harder to keep you steady.

Correcting posture isn’t just about looking better.

It’s about helping your nervous system coordinate movement better and more safely.

Your spine is more than a structure.

When spinal motion drops (hello desk life), tissues decondition and your brain gets a lower quality “sensory diet.” The body often responds with protection: tightness, stiffness, sensitivity, and that “I don’t trust this movement” feeling.

The fix usually isn’t just stretching. It’s restoring capacity + control + confidence with daily motion.

Your immune system has a front line.

Some research suggests an upper-cervical (neck) adjustment may give it a quick boost: secretory IgA (the bouncer/security guard at your nose, mouth, & gut) rose ~40% within 30 minutes. Effects are short lived (as the immune boost was temporary, returning to baseline levels after 2 weeks), so consistency matters!

Why it’s cool:
• sIgA = first defense at mucosal surfaces
• Better coordination = better resilience
• It’s about nervous system function, not just pain

Chiropractic adjustments are key to regulating your nervous system.

Your spine houses the communication highway between your brain and body — every adjustment is like a clean reboot for your internal operating system (central nervous system).

Less noise, better signal, more you

Stress stuck in the on position?!

Your nervous system can’t heal when it’s defending itself. Adjustments help flip the switch back to reset, repair and regulate.
