What to do about poor posture.
Poor Posture
Good posture refers to having a neutral spine, where your muscle groups, joints, and ligaments are aligned in a way that reduces stress on them, keeps your body flexible, reduces fatigue, and helps maintain your balance.
Posture is the position of your body when you’re standing or sitting. It describes how your spine is aligned with your head, shoulders, and hips.
If your posture is out of alignment, it can lead to:
-
muscle or joint strain
-
neck, head, or back pain
-
possible injury during exercise, work, or other activities
-
poor appearance
-
fatigue and poor concentration
-
poor breathing ability
