What Causes Poor Posture?
We have entered a digital age where everyone sits at a computer or staring down at their phone or tablet for hours on end, slowly finding themselves slumping over in the process and resulting in poor posture.
Poor posture often results in the rounding of your shoulders, causing the spine to curve and tightening of muscles around the upper back and neck. It’s something that you may not even realise is happening and slowly builds over time. This can lead to not only neck and shoulder pain but headaches as well.
