Every living being, and even objects, have a design that is unique to them, based on accomplishing a specific task. The same principle applies to your spine. When spinal alignment is optimal, it allows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The vertebrae can move without restriction according to normal biomechanics.<\/li>\n<li>Better distribution of loads on the vertebrae (on the articular pillars and not on the intervertebral discs).<\/li>\n<li>To be able to stand up straight while looking forward without effort.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Bad Postural Habits: A Daily Challenge<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This natural posture is put to the test by the many bad postures we adopt on a daily basis. Whether it\u2019s in the car, on the computer at work, on the cell phone during breaks, etc. Observe your posture carefully during these activities. How is it? Far from optimal: rounded back, rounded shoulders, head forward. The perfect combination to develop that unwanted buffalo hump!<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Postural assessment: An essential tool for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/abccliniquesante.com\/en\/services\/chiropractic\/\">chiropractor<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In addition, poor posture is often a reflection of your overall physical and emotional health. In fact, several studies demonstrate links between posture and a range of health conditions. Depression and fatigue are, among others, conditions that are greatly linked to poor posture. Physically, poor spinal alignment can lead to accelerated\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S0001407921000959\">degeneration<\/a>\u00a0of the spinal structures. Problems such as headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain and trapezius pain are very common in people with poor posture.<\/p>\n<p>For the trained eye of our chiropractors, the visual assessment of your posture is an essential tool to evaluate your neuro-vertebral health. Using diagnostic imaging (x-rays), our chiropractors are able to adequately analyze your posture and target the problem areas of your spine.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Understanding and acting on your posture<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Once the x-rays have been analyzed by your chiropractor, he or she will meet with you to help you understand your condition. During this meeting, you will receive your diagnosis as well as appropriate recommendations for your problem. This meeting is focused on understanding your problem and aims to give you tools and advice that can be applied on a daily basis to guide you towards better healing. In light of these explanations, a joint decision will be made to begin the appropriate care.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Restore optimal alignment<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Using the\u00a0<em>Chiropractic Biophysics (CBP)<\/em>\u00a0technique , your chiropractor is able to provide the best treatments to restore alignment to your spine. Treatments include: a combination of chiropractic adjustments, neurological rehabilitation, in-clinic tractions, and postural rehabilitation exercises at home. It is a completely personalized process, carefully tailored to each person\u2019s abilities.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Prevention is better for healing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Since each case is unique, the prognosis varies greatly from one individual to another. As a general rule, the more severe the postural problem, the more time and effort it will take to return to normal alignment. This is why it is essential to take a preventative approach by adopting beneficial postural habits on a daily basis before reaching a point of no return.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><strong>Don\u2019t wait to see a chiropractor<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In conclusion, do not wait until you develop chronic symptoms before consulting. The earlier the problem is addressed in its development, the easier it is to correct, and the less incapacitated you will be by it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":30214,"parent":1592,"menu_order":6,"template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1602","services","type-services","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.6 (Yoast SEO v27.7) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Chiropractic and postural correction - ABC Clinique Sant\u00e9<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/abccliniquesante.com\/en\/services\/chiropractic\/chiropractic-and-postural-correction\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Chiropractic and postural correction\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The fundamental principle of posture First, to fully understand the impact of a good postural assessment on your health, keep this principle in mind: \u201cStructure = Function\u201d.
