Poor Posture Now Can Lead to Health Issues Later

By Donna Stark

There are a lot of things we may refuse to give our parents credit for, but when it is all said and done, there is no denying that our parents were completely right when they nagged us about our posture. Poor posture is a main culprit in many of the chronic pain and health issues that plague millions of people worldwide, but with so many things to think about during the day, it is easy to slip into a position that includes hunched shoulders, a forward head placement, and a curved back, isn't it? 

The Effects of Poor Posture

By not paying attention to your posture today, your overall health and wellness could be compromised in the future. Take a look at some of the health issues that poor posture can contribute to and then keep reading to learn how chiropractic care at The Joint Chiropractic can help!

  • Back pain - Poor posture can pull your spine out of alignment and when that happens, you could very well end up dealing with chronic back and neck pain. You are also more likely to sustain injuries to your joints and muscles too because the added strain and tightness caused by poor posture can impact your balance and increase your risk of falls.
  • Joint pain - Poor posture can increase strain and tightness in your muscles which can put added stress on your joints. This could eventually lead to future joint degeneration or can exacerbate the arthritis pain you already have.
  • Nerve pain - Tight muscles don't feel great, but when they press on the nerves in your body, they are downright impossible to live with. You definitely need to take care of this problem immediately to reduce the risk of permanent nerve damage.
  • Head pain - If your spine is out of alignment and the muscles in your neck, back, and shoulders are tight, you could end up dealing with chronic headaches. Poor posture can be a contributing factor in those really bad migraines too, so pay attention!
