Posture Correction in Hamilton
From sitting at their workstation with hunched shoulders to glancing down at their digital device for an extended period, it’s no wonder that so many people have poor posture.
How Poor Posture Impacts the Body
Did you know that poor posture can create muscle balances in the body? You also can experience an acceleration of wear and tear on your spine, making you more susceptible to injury. Other issues that can arise from poor posture include decreased flexibility in the body, impaired breathing, and an increased risk of neck, shoulder and back pain.
