What is posture correction?

Posture correction is a unique type of physical therapy that addresses the body's postural position and the potential muscular imbalances that can cause pain. Posture plays a crucial role in your body’s overall alignment.

Poor posture strains the muscles and can lead to imbalances that lead to weakness, tightness, and chronic pain. Correcting your posture can help alleviate these issues and restore balance to your body.

Will posture correction improve my health?

Posture correction can significantly improve your physical and mental well-being. Popular benefits of posture correction include:

• Pain relief
• Reduced stress on joints, muscles, and ligaments
• Decreased joint wear
• Proper spinal alignment
• Improved spinal health and function
• Boosted energy
• Relief from tech neck, whiplash symptoms, and overall neck and shoulder pain
• Enhanced mood
• Improved self-esteem

Maintaining good posture can even help with breathing and digestion. Spinal alignment allows your lungs to expand, which enables better breathing and prevents compression of your digestive organs to relieve acid reflux, constipation, and other gastrointestinal disorders.

How can chiropractic care improve posture correction?

Chiropractic care focuses on maintaining and improving spinal alignment to improve your overall balance and function. When your joints, muscles, tendons, bones, and other structures align, they work together more efficiently, which improves your posture. Chiropractic care can improve your posture, health, and well-being in many ways, including:

Spinal adjustment and alignment

A spinal adjustment is a hands-on technique that involves applying controlled force to improve your alignment.

Muscle balance, strength, and flexibility

Imbalanced muscles can lead to poor posture, putting pressure on the surrounding tissues. Chiropractic care assesses your muscle tone, strength, and flexibility to develop a targeted treatment plan that addresses these imbalances.

Rehabilitation

If you have damaged ligaments, tendons, and muscles from poor posture, your chiropractor can create a personalized rehabilitation plan that focuses on relieving muscle tightness and strengthening weakened muscles.

What can I expect from posture correction?

Your chiropractor at 380 Chiropractic & Wellness performs a comprehensive evaluation that includes a complete medical history review and physical assessment to design your treatment plan. After your postural assessment, the team focuses on exercises, ergonomic education, and targeted stretches to improve your posture.
