SLOUCHING, LIFTING, POOR POSTURE AND PAIN
Slouching posture is just not good, not good for your spine, your health, your mood. Slouching is connected to things like pain, depression, and stress in addition to lower levels of general health, emotional well-being, and energy/fatigue. (1) Spinal angles need to be respected which slouching doesn’t do. The pelvic angle, the angle of pelvic tilt, body mass index and thoracic kyphosis angle displayed a significant role in whether a person experienced back pain or not. (2) Slouching while lifting isn’t good either as it strained disc fibers and increased intradiscal pressure. Therefore, Recent research suggested using a “free posture” that it was neither too kyphotic or lordotic curved. This used both active and passive spine elements in a more balanced manner. (3) This concept of balance makes good sense to chiropractors and their chiropractic patients who are well aware what triggers their back pain bouts.
Ashburn and Herndon CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS CAN LIST THINGS THAT TRIGGER THEIR BACK PAIN
Back pain sufferers can explain to us chiropractors what they think initiates their pain. Active movements (35%), static postures (28.1%), overdoing a task (5.3%), biomechanical issues, lack of exercise, work and medications are on the list. Some Ashburn and Herndon back pain sufferers will concur that even nonbiomedical issues like psychological state/stress/anxiety, weather, sleep, diet and fatigue may trigger back pain. (4) Your Ashburn and Herndon chiropractor values how helpful our Ashburn and Herndon back pain patients’ understanding of their pain helps them recover. Knowledge like this plus a tool can make great outcomes!
WHAT TO DO ABOUT SLOUCHING FOR BETTER POSTURE
Could today’s tech-y gadgets improve posture? Possibly, it may do so quite a bit! As with anything in life, feedback is beneficial; feedback changes habits. In a new study of feedback on posture using a wearable feedback device for only 15 minutes a day improved participants’ reports on physical functioning, emotions, energy/fatigue, confidence, overall stress along with neck and back posture contrasted with a group who did not use the device. (1) We – including your Ashburn and Herndon chiropractor – may have the best of intentions to “watch” our posture, but in the end, we just are not very good at it on our own! Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn is here to help.
