If you suffer from bad posture, you are not alone. Most people do not sit or stand as straight as they should, and this causes a lot of back pain and neck pain. The good news is that you can take steps to prevent poor posture. Dr. Batte at Corrective Chiropractic in London, ON provides quality chiropractic care and is familiar with poor posture. We have gathered a few warning signs to watch out for regarding poor posture. If any of these signs sound a bit too familiar, it could be time to book an appointment with our chiropractor.

1. Rounded Shoulders

Do you ever notice that your shoulders feel as if they are creeping up near your ears? Rounded shoulders can be a sign that you have too much tension in your shoulders and that you are slouching.

2. Back Pain and Aches

How often does your back hurt after a day of sitting? An achy back may indicate that your core is weak and creating poor posture.

3. Headaches

Headaches are often a sign of tension in the body. If your body is holding onto a lot of tension, your posture may be a physical representation of your discomfort. The headache may be a sign that you need a postural assessment.

4. Hunched Back

You may not notice that your back is hunched over in the moment, but if you look in the mirror, you could see a bit of rounding at the base of your neck. This hunched portion could be a sign of poor posture.

5. Tilted Pelvis

A pelvic tilt is common in men and women, and it can cause pelvic dysfunction without you even realizing it. Our chiropractor will assess your pelvic tilt to determine what kind of posture you may have.
