Did you know that forward head posture is the cause of many headaches, neck pain, and shoulder strain? This is when your neck slopes forward and downward in a hunched position.

With the increase in screen time and all the sitting we do, there has never been a more crucial time to address poor posture. All-day long people crane their necks sharply down or forward, peering at their phones-150 times per day on average!

Long-term poor posture leads to poor spinal health and degenerative joint conditions. If your head feels too heavy, you feel tired or foggy a lot, and you feel pain in your head, neck, upper back, or shoulders, you likely have poor alignment.

May is Posture Month. Make it a focus to check your posture and spinal alignment health by a qualified chiropractor in Vernon BC. We're here to help you feel your best!
