Posture Issues in St Albans
Biomechanics and Your Body
Most people don’t think about their posture until a problem occurs. They forget the body is a machine, and when one part of the body is not working correctly, it affects the others. No where is that more apparent than with posture. If the patient has a problem with their right knee, they will likely compensate by doing more on the left side, which can cause problems with the hip, shoulder, neck, and more.
The initial first step is a thorough examination of the patient to provide a detailed report outlining the problem. A personalised plan is created, including adjustments and exercises to bring the body back into alignment.
Various factors may cause these problems, including muscle imbalances, poor posture habits, foot problems, ergonomic issues, improper sleep position, stress and more. Having a strong foundation ensures that the biomechanics of the body function as they should.
Options for Care
Chiropractic is a non-invasive method used to restore proper spinal alignment, reduce joint and muscle tension, improve overall body function, and address any related issues. When we adjust the spine, joints, and muscles to reduce tension, your mobility increases and function improves, allowing you to move properly and easily.
This care option may help with several related issues, including neck pain, low back pain, and headaches. If you’re dealing with any of these problems, it’s important to see our chiropractor for an assessment to determine the best course of care. With regular care and lifestyle adjustments, you can stand tall and firm and improve your overall health.
Custom orthotics are another option used to help our patients relieve pain due to foundation problems. These specially fitted insoles provide extra stability and improve gait mechanics, which helps correct structural imbalances.
