Poor Posture Treatment in Lahore

Introduction:

Poor posture has become an increasingly prevalent issue in the modern age of technology, where prolonged sitting and prolonged exposure to screens are practically unavoidable.

What is Good Posture?

Maintaining proper alignment of the body when standing or sitting reduces the pressure on the muscles and ligaments. It lessens fatigue and enhances balance, bone and joint alignment, spinal protection, ad general look by assisting in the equal distribution of your weight. Maintaining optimal function and comfort through proper posture entails keeping your knees, ankles, hips, spine, shoulders, and head in alignment and balance.

Common poor posture examples:

1. Scoliosis:

It is a defects of the spine where the spinal curve is either left or right. It is the spine’s lateral or sideways curvature. Patients with scoliosis often have unequal waists and shoulders.

• Rounded Shoulder:

Shoulders that slouch forward instead of aligning up with your hips are known as rounded shoulders.

• Forward head posture:

One bad habitual neck posture is forward head posture (FHP). It is characterized by anterior translation of the cervical vertebrae and hyperextension of the upper cervical vertebrae. It can lead to painful shortening of the back muscles and compression of the cervical vertebrae.

• Flat back posture:

The lower back flattens in this position, causing your spine to lose its natural curve. Additionally, your pelvis moves back.

• Lordotic posture:

The forward-curving spine in your lower back or neck is called lordosis. Naturally your lumbar and cervical spines are inclined slightly forward, towards the front of your body. Hyper lordosis occurs when this normal curve is exaggerated. In this position, the pelvis is inclined anteriorly.

• Kyphosis

That happens when the upper back bends forward. Humpback formation is the result of it. It may leads to an abnormal rounding of upper back. Although it can happen at any age, but adolescents are more likely to experience it.

• Antalgic Posture:

A pain-avoidance posture that is frequently observed after injuries

• Sway back posture:

Your head is cocked forward, your cervical spine is hyperextended, your thoracic spine is flexed, your lumber spine is extended, your posterior pelvis tilts, your knees and hips are hyperextended, and your ankle is plantar flexed when you develop a sway back posture.
