All healthcare professionals worldwide agree that a balanced postural system enhances health and function, and the opposite holds true, that without proper postural alignment the body degenerates at an accelerated rate. Proper Posture therefore, is a fundamental component to optimal health.
What many people may not know, is that we are actually putting our bodies at risk for early onset of degeneration if we don’t take care of our posture. Our bodies were simply not designed to withstand the postural habits of today’s society, especially sitting for long periods of time.
When you hold a certain position for a long period of time, your soft tissue loses its elasticity, just like an elastic band loses its recoil ability if stretched for extended periods. This also happens in your body, namely to the ligaments.
Over time poor posture can cause serious spinal degeneration with associated symptoms such as chronic back pain, herniated spinal discs, sciatica, and headaches.
