Good Posture Is The Core of Your Well-Being

Good Posture Is The Core of Your Well-Being

Staying healthy and feeling good both have some very basic requirements: eat well, sleep well, be happy, and so on. One that is often overlooked is the need for good posture. This is not the ramrod-straight posture of teenagers walking with books balanced on their heads, but the supportive position of your spine, shoulders, hips, and head that allows you the best range of motion and the best support of your muscles, tendons, and bones. Poor posture can lead to physical stress on the rest of your body that brings on symptoms like pain or tension. By fixing your posture, you can remedy a number of physical issues that may have been bothering you. Advanced Medical Solutions in Myrtle Beach SC can try helping your pain management treatment by looking at your posture.

Your Spine and Your Body

To put it simply, your spine acts as a central connection point for your muscles, limbs, and brain. Anything that happens to your spine can affect how easy it is for you to move, or affect how well you feel.

If your posture isn't that good -- meaning you slouch, place uneven weight on your legs, hold your head in odd positions (e.g., cradling a phone between your shoulder and ear), or do something else that pulls your spine into strange configurations -- then the muscles and tendons connected to the spine will experience more strain. That can have a subtle effect on the tension you feel in those muscles, and the tension and discomfort can radiate outward from there.

You can improve your posture through mild physical therapy and practice. Even if you have other conditions that cause you pain that aren't related to your spine, improving you posture is worth the time because that will remove excessive pressure and stress from your already stressed body.
