When Your Doctor of chiropractic Told You To Straighten Up, He Wasn't Joking Around!

Online, July 28, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Three articles in this medical journal (The Impact of Positive Sagittal Balance in Adult Spinal Deformity (Spinal column Journal), Spinal Kyphosis Causes Demyelination and Neuronal Loss in the Spinal Cord: A New Model of Kyphotic Deformity (Spinal column Journal) and A hypothesis of chronic back pain: ligament subfailure injuries lead to muscle control dysfunction (European Spinal column Journal) ) not only have a lot of large words in their titles but they confirm the concept that the shape of your spinal column determines the function of your body.

Now when we talk about shape, there are two important things that need to be addressed. Shape means having the correct curves in your spinal column from the side view and also means having joints that are mobile and full of flexibility. The most interesting one for me is the one that talks about Sagittal Balance. The conclusions from the article were: The SEVERITY of Symptoms increases in a linear fashion with progressive increase of forward head [posture]. There was CLEAR evidence of INCREASED PAIN and DECREASED FUNCTION as the magnitude of forward head [posture] increased. There is a DETERIORATION of health status with progressive forward head [posture]. ALL measures of health status showed significantly poorer scores as [forward head posture increased]. Even MINOR forward head [posture] is DETRIMENTAL.

What does this mean for you? It means your doctor of chiropractic knew more than you thought and maybe even more than the doctor of chiropractic thought! Standing upright correctly, ears over shoulders, shoulders over hips and hips over ankles will help you live a healthier life, with less ache and increased function of your entire body.
