Potential Results of Poor Posture
Does the phrase ‘good posture’ conjure up images of old fashioned grooming and deportment classes and old movie scenes of young women walking around with books on their heads? Sadly, good posture does seem to have gone out of fashion. It’s unfortunate because the price to be paid for poor posture can be very high.
When incorrect posture becomes a habit, here are some of the potential results:
- Increased pressure on sections of your spine and important joints. This may lead to early degeneration, and impaired muscle strength and function. Slumping, slouching, looking down, frequently leaning on your elbow or crossing your legs can all have adverse affects over the long term.
- Breathing, digestion and circulation may be inhibited as areas of your body become ‘squashed’ by poor posture.
- Muscle strain, back pain, neck pain, or headaches may become your companions as poor posture can tighten muscles and irritate nerves.
Conversely, good posture brings rewards. Not only may it help you to avoid the conditions described above, correct posture tends to look graceful and confident.
