Fix Forward Head Posture

In this quick video, Dr. Rowe (St. Joseph, MI chiropractor) shows how to help fix forward head posture caused by using modern tech, especially from computer or cell phone use.

NOTICED A BIT OF FORWARD HEAD POSTURE LATELY?? ⠀
.⠀
We're all guilty of bad posture while using modern technology these days, and we're paying the price by getting an achy neck, upper back, or shoulders. If it's done repeatedly, there might even be a noticeable change that's causing unsightly forward head posture.⠀
.⠀
What happens with constant leaning forward while using modern tech, is that we're contracting (or tightening) muscles and building tension. This tightness leads to everything being pulled forward in a fixed position. Also, it leads to issues like decreased flexibility and pain.⠀
.⠀
So lets stop forward head posture in its tracks with 3 simple exercises that are going to focus on retracting (or bringing back) the head, neck, and shoulders into better alignment. ⠀
.⠀
THE FIX:⠀
chin tucks to help retract and strengthen neck muscles⠀
modified shrugs to bring rounded shoulders backwards⠀
thoracic extension to loosen tightness in the upper back and decrease the forward pull of tight chest muscles. ⠀
.⠀
Give them a try, and let us know how it's working. Hopefully, it's going to make a big difference. Tag someone that might need a little help with forward head posture, and share the good word!
