Does your posture matter when you’re driving?

Emily Barker • April 25, 2022

 The position of your head and neck plays a large role in the injuries you sustain during a car accident.

When you are rear-ended, normal cervical lordosis (the curvature of your cervical spine) actually protects against severe tissue damage and decreases the likelihood of experiencing chronic pain.

Furthermore, studies have shown that patients who experience chronic pain following an accident are those who have abnormal cervical lordosis.

Do you have forward head posture? Posture exercises will correct your head and neck position- in turn protecting you from injury and relieving any discomfort you may presently have!

Pandiculation is the process of resetting muscle length and tension. Animals do it naturally after rest. A dog or cat will arch its spine, then round it. Here’s what happens: Arching activates the extensor muscles Rounding activates the flexor muscles. Activating one group and then the other helps each side release when not in use. This movement restores neutral balance in the spine. In posture therapy, working the opposing muscle group can help fix a muscle that is overactive or not firing when needed. This improves muscle coordination and reduces tension.
