Our parents and caregivers warned
us about slouching. Our teachers did, too. Certainly, our Montreal
chiropractor does today! Did we or do we heed
their advice? Very few of us if any when we
were young and a very few of us who are older and wiser
now. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic understands and embraces
slouchers and poor posture folks. Come to Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic for Montreal
back pain relief and neck pain relief from
your slouching ways. Go away with tips on how
to avoid posture-influenced pain and misery.
SLOUCHING, LIFTING, POOR POSTURE AND PAIN
Slouching posture isn’t good at all,
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 must be respected which slouching do
not do. The pelvic angle, the angle of pelvic tilt, body mass index
and thoracic kyphosis angle had a significant role in
whether a person experienced back pain or not. (2) Slouching while
lifting is not good either as it put a strain on
disc fibers and increased intradiscal pressure. Therefore,
Recent research suggested using a “free posture” that it was not
too kyphotic or lordotic curved. Thus it 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 know well often what triggers their back pain flare-ups.
Montreal 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 top
the list. Some Montreal 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
Montreal chiropractor understands how beneficial
our Montreal back pain patients’ understanding of
their pain boosts their recovery. Knowledge like this and
a tool can make great outcomes!
WHAT TO DO ABOUT SLOUCHING FOR BETTER POSTURE
Could today’s tech-y gadgets help
with posture? Possibly, it may help quite a
bit! As with anything in life, feedback
is beneficial; feedback changes habits. In a recent study of feedback on posture
using a wearable feedback device just 15 minutes a day improved
participants’ descriptions of physical functioning, emotions,
energy/fatigue, confidence, overall stress as well as neck and back posture compared to a group who didn’t use the device. (1) We – including your Montreal chiropractor
– set out with the best of intentions to “watch” our posture,
but in the end, we just are not very good at it on our own! Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is here to help.
