Hope for Largo Back and Neck Pain Due to Slouching and Poor Posture

April 21, 2020

Our moms and dads warned us about slouching. Our teachers did, too. Certainly, our Largo chiropractor does now! Did we or do we heed their advice? Not most of us when we were young and a very few of us who are older and wiser now. Hollstrom & Associates Inc accepts and welcomes slouchers and poor posture folks. Come to Hollstrom & Associates Inc for Largo neck pain and back pain relief from your slouching ways. Go away with tips on how to keep posture-influenced pain and distress at bay.

SLOUCHING, LIFTING, POOR POSTURE AND PAIN

Slouching posture isn’t good at all, not good for your spine, your health, your mood. Slouching is related to things like pain, depression, and stress in addition to lower levels of general health, emotional well-being, and energy/fatigue. (1) Spinal angles must be abided by which slouching doesn’t do. The pelvic angle, the angle of pelvic tilt, body mass index and thoracic kyphosis angle played a significant role in whether a person had 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 not 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 episodes.

Largo CHIROPRACTIC PATIENTS CAN LIST THINGS THAT TRIGGER THEIR BACK PAIN

Back pain sufferers can tell us chiropractors what they think brings on 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 Largo back pain sufferers will concur that even nonbiomedical matters like psychological state/stress/anxiety, weather, sleep, diet and fatigue may trigger back pain. (4) Your Largo chiropractor values how helpful our Largo back pain patients’ knowledge of their pain boosts their recovery. Knowledge like this and a tool can create great outcomes!

WHAT TO DO ABOUT SLOUCHING FOR BETTER POSTURE

Could today’s tech-y gadgets improve posture? Potentially, it may help quite a bit!  As with anything in life, feedback is beneficial; feedback influences change. In a recent study of feedback on posture using a wearable feedback device just 15 minutes a day boosted 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 Largo 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! Hollstrom & Associates Inc is here to help.
