Posture and NeuroSpinal Chiropractic: What's the Connection?

A common question we get asked by our patients and people who attend our events is whether we are posture specialists or not.

Poor posture (aka Postural Distortion) is what we refer to in our office as a Secondary Condition. When the spine shifts, several secondary conditions arise such as pain, numbness, tendinitis, spasms and, you guessed it, postural distortions. 

Tools such as digital photography and NeuroSpinal Radiographs show us what's going on in the body as a result of a spinal shift.

Another way to look at it is like this: a postural distortion is the effect, while we at Complete Chiropractic address the cause using our signature approach that involves an objective evaluation of the spine and lifestyle. We then respond with specific adjustments and complementary recommendations including proper egonomics, choosing a custom-fitted pillow, supplements, dietary recommendations, etc. 


By being able to track secondary conditions such as posture, we can better measure progress and, more importantly, help maintain results.
