Basalt CO Chiropractic Doctor Offers Postural Correction Therapy And Wellness Care

By Carlene Eriksson


Good posture is important to your appearance. It can also be important to retaining a healthy, pain-free existence throughout your life. Posture that is lacking can cause aches, dysfunction and in some cases, major pain. A leading Aspen CO wellness chiropractor focuses practice on achieving and maintaining good posture in those who follow the dictates of wellness care.

Posture is more than standing up straight. It includes the position of an individuals body in relation to the space around him or her. Not everyone thinks it is a type of language. It is nonverbal language that reflects attitude and self-confidence.

If the skeleton is well balanced, it protects the rest of the body. Good balance is not responsible for developing a deformity. If joints remain in the optimal position, the minimal amount of stress is placed on the body.

When the muscles have to compensate for improperly placed joints, stress may be placed on them. Muscular tension does not further a healthy back. Also, the wear and tear on the joints is damaging.

Anatomical abnormalities may be caused by joints that are not in the right position. That is one result of poor posture, called structural. If it is positional it is due to something the client does.

Those things may cause pain in your knees, back or pelvic joint. Other possibilities include pain in the upper back and headaches. In extreme examples, a serious condition such as a respiratory abnormality can be caused by bad posture.

When you meet with the chiropractor for the first time, your posture will be evaluated. You will be observed in a standing and seated position. You will show how you walk across a room.

Your spine is observed and palpated. Flexibility is assessed. Limbs and waist are measured. The strength of the muscles is also assessed.

Following the exam a program of care will be formulated. It may include manipulation, heat applications and massage. Exercises to strengthen muscles, ligaments, bones and nerves may be recommended to do at home.
