Neck Pain Due to Bad Posture? Chiropractic Neck Pain Treatment Can Help

Written By Northgate Chiropractic Clinic on October 22, 2018

Did you often hear phrases like, “sit up straight” or “shoulders back” or “stop slouching” when you were growing up?

Many times, our parents and grandparents wanted us to have good posture simply because you tend to look better when standing or sitting up straight and tall.

However, in addition to the aesthetics of good posture, there are also health benefits. 

Poor Posture Can Cause Neck Pain

If you suffer from chronic neck pain that isn’t related to an accident or injury, it’s possible that your discomfort may be the result of poor posture. 

So, the time might be right for you to visit the chiropractor for neck pain treatment.

According to Spine-Health.com, there are 5 different muscle groups that can become tight. And, they state, “If the alignment of the head and spine is not optimal, the neck can be predisposed to injury and/or the degenerative effects of wear and tear over time.” 

Also according to Spine-Health.com, one of the primary posture issues leading to neck pain is keeping your head and shoulders in a forward position. This posture places your head in front of your shoulders.
