An Expert Chiropractor in NYC Breaks Down the Importance of Proper Posture
PURCHASE, NY, USA, May 18, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Dr. Jan Lefkowitz, a chiropractor in NYC and founder of Body in Balance Chiropractic, has been featured in an article at EatingWell, a health magazine known for publishing wellness advice.
In the post, Dr. Lefkowitz mentioned the following points:
● Poor posture can cause long-term issues: Practicing bad posture leads the body to follow a pattern it is not used to, resulting in the creation of stress points. These areas are the reason why long-term issues such as inflammation, pain, and injuries happen. Dr. Lefkowitz added that poor posture can easily result in tension headaches, especially when slouching and rolling the head and shoulders forward.
● Start with the lower back and pelvis: Dr. Lefkowitz mentioned that proper posture begins with the lower back and pelvis. He advised that using lumbar support when sitting can help maintain the natural curve of the lower back while ensuring that the pelvis stays in the right position. Doing so allows the whole body to fall into the correct posture it needs to avoid slouching.
● Keep the body moving: Ligamentous creep is a condition that arises with poor posture and sitting for a long time. To prevent this from happening, Dr. Lefkowitz stated that performing a quick stretch known as Bruegger’s Relief Position can reset one’s posture. This type of stretch can be performed easily even in the office.
At the end of the post, Dr. Lefkowitz concluded that the body’s posture has a direct effect on the nervous system. Being aware of one’s body, performing quick stretches, and maintaining an overall good posture are keys to improving wellness.
