Maintaining Proper Spine Alignment Through Good Posture



Now that you know about spine and pelvis, the nervous system and chiropractic, let's learn ways to help make sure that you can maintain proper alignment in your spine. So, the first thing is good posture. So, let's do this while you're seated, a lot of us have seated jobs, so let's make sure we do this properly. When you have a seat, make sure your feet are flat on the ground, 90 degree angle from your knees here, 90 degree angle at your hips. When you're here at a desk, make sure this is at 90 degrees as well. You should never be like this, should never be like this. So, make sure your monitor is right in front of you.


Now, if you find yourself doing this over time, which a lot of us do, let's go through a quick stretch that you can do either right here at your desk, you could do it against the wall, or in your car, to help make sure that you keep those muscles working in the right direction that you need them to. So, let's do the chin tuck stretch. So, you can use your finger or not, but make sure to bring your head horizontally back so your ears are over your shoulders. Hold this for a good 20 to 30 seconds, and release. Now, do that three times throughout the day, and that'll help make sure that those muscles in the front are starting to contract as they should, and to stretch these out in the back as well.

That's all I got for you today.


We'll see you soon.

Be Well
