How long does it take to correct poor posture?
This depends on the individual and the underlying causes of the poor posture. Our chiropractors will develop a personalised treatment plan to help address your issues and improve posture. In some cases, you may start to notice a difference in as little as one chiropractic session.
Can poor posture cause bulging disc?
Yes, poor posture can lead to increased stress on the spine which can cause bulging discs. Regular chiropractic corrections and postural exercises can help reduce this stress and improve overall posture.
Can poor posture cause lower back pain?
Yes, poor posture can lead to chronic lower back pain due to misalignment of the spine. This misalignment of the spine can place extra stress on the muscles and joints resulting in pain. Chiropractic treatments help restore postural balance which can help reduce back pain. With proper care and ergonomics you can get rid of the lower back completely.
Can poor posture cause neck pain?
Yes, poor posture can cause neck pain due to the strain on the muscles and joints of the neck. Chiropractic adjustments and postural exercises can help relieve this strain and reduce neck pain.
Can poor posture cause headaches?
Yes, poor posture can cause headaches. Poor posture can lead to tension on the muscles and joints of the neck, which can result in headaches when left untreated. Chiropractic adjustments and massage can help relieve this tension and reduce the frequency of headaches.
Can poor posture cause shoulder pain?
Yes, poor posture can cause shoulder pain due to the strain it places on the muscles and joints of the shoulders. Chiropractic treatments and postural exercises can help restore balance and alignment of the spine, thus relieving tension and reducing shoulder pain.
What are the other health conditions that can be caused as a result of bad posture?
Bad posture can cause or worsen a variety of health conditions such as muscle pain and tension, joint pain, fatigue and other severe conditions such as herniated discs, costochondritis and sciatica.
