Posture

Posture is the key to living pain free. If you have imbalances in your body your posture will reflect those imbalances. For example, kyphosis is a problem that nags many people these days. Kyphosis is excessive curvature of the upper spine. This is often evident in people when their shoulders are rounded forward. In our society today we tend to spend a lot of time with our shoulders rounded forward. Things like working on computers and driving can contribute to kyphosis. Kyphosis is often related to pain in the shoulders and neck. In most cases, this condition is reversible with some simple corrective exercises. Many of those exercises are the ones that we incorporate into our daily warm ups at Foley Performance.
