The Power of Good Posture

Did you know that having good posture can protect you from back pain and injuries!

The key to good posture is maintaining the balance of your spine’s three curves.  “Standing up straight” means keeping your back’s natural curves in balance.

Check your posture!

  • Stand against a wall with your heels about two inches away. 
  • The space between your waist and the wall should be no more than the width of your hand.

Balance yourself!

  • Stand with your feet flat on the ground.  Relax your knees and tilt your tailbone slightly under and forward.
  • Drop your shoulders.
  • Tighten your abdominal muscles a bit.
  • Relax any muscles or joints that are tense.
