Poor posture, slumped shoulders and a crooked spine can lead to severe back, neck and shoulder pain. We bring you daily bad habits, which contribute to bad posture and improper spine position, and which you are probably not aware of.
1. Unnatural arching of the neck while using the phone
While reading messages or simply checking our social networks, most often we bend our head and neck down. Such a position creates strong pressure in the neck. We should not hold the mobile at chest level, but at eye level.
2. Use an inadequate sander
The brush should relieve your back and neck. If we choose an inadequate model that does not provide proper support to the breasts, especially larger ones, we will only put additional burden on those parts of the body. If the buckle on your back is constantly lifting, it means that the sander is not the right size. Because of this, the chest can create pressure in the back, which makes us lean forward, feel pain and cannot straighten our shoulders.
3. Improper raising of children
To protect your back while lifting children, bend your knees. Lifting from a light squat reduces pressure on the spine. If you want to work on your posture, avoid carrying children on your shoulders.
4. You like flat shoes
Completely flat shoes are not healthy either for the spine or for our joints, try to choose shoes that have soles.
5. Backpacks and bags cluttered with unnecessary things
A backpack is always a better choice than a bag, because it evenly distributes the pressure on the spine, but like bags, it should not be too crowded. Make sure that your backpack is level with your shoulders and as close to your body as possible, so you will reduce the load on your spine.
Correct posture is very important for our health, but also for the impression we leave on the environment, so it is important that we make an effort to correct these habits and work on correct posture, reports Beauty and Health.
