Chiropractic Can Help With Neck Pain Due to Bad Posture
Working at a computer all day can lead to problems with your neck, upper back, and lower back. Poor posture can contribute to or exacerbate problems by putting extra strain on the delicate tendons and vertebrae of the cervical spine.
At Chiropractic Neurology Enhancement Center, we can provide you with posture correction therapies, spinal adjustments, massage therapy, and lifestyle and exercise modification techniques that will reduce pain and inflammation and improve mobility.
How Does Poor Posture Cause Neck Pain?
Poor posture causes neck pain by straining the muscles and ligaments that support the vertebrae of the neck. Over time, this results in injury and causes pain, stiffness, headaches, tenderness in the neck and upper shoulders, and fatigue. Your head weighs around 10 pounds, and the act of sitting at a desk or computer with your head tilted forward puts a lot of added pressure on the neck.
How to Improve Your Posture
Whether you sit at a desk for work, or spend a lot of time looking down at a book or your cell phone, you can improve your posture to reduce or prevent neck pain. When sitting in a chair, make sure your feet are firmly on the ground and your back is against the back of the chair. Your computer screen or other device(s) should be at eye level. Get up and stretch and move around every 45 minutes to one hour.
How Our Chiropractors Can Help
Our chiropractors at Chiropractic Neurology Enhancement Center have extensive training in posture correction and anatomy. We can provide posture correction techniques and tips on ergonomics and therapeutic stretches and exercises that will keep you free from pain, and improve your posture.
We also utilize diagnostic testing and imaging to determine the underlying cause of your neck pain, so we can be sure it is due to poor posture or misalignment, rather than a neurological issue. We provide spinal adjustments, massage therapy, and lifestyle modification counseling to improve your alignment, posture, and mobility.
