BEST EXERCISES TO IMPROVE POSTURE
Modern research has suggested that THE SPINE and POSTURE affect EVERY PHYSIOLOGICAL FUNCTION in the body, from breathing to hormone regulation. A well aligned and well adjusted SPINE and IDEAL POSTURE will allow for optimal function of the nervous system and its influence in the coordination of ALL of the body’s cells, tissues, and organs.
ONE OF THE MOST COMMON postural misalignment in today’s modern society is called “UPPER CROSSED SYNDROME”. Hallmark signs of this poor posture involves hypertonicity & tightness in the chest muscles (pectoralis major & minor) and tightness in the upper trapezius and levator scapulae muscles, while exhibiting weak, inactive, and stretched deep neck flexor muscles, lower trapezius, rhomboids, and serratus anterior muscles. Clinically, DR. QUON uses an excellent way to improve this postural syndrome involves STRENGTHENING those weak muscles with isolated muscle activating exercises.
THESE EXERCISES ARE A SAFE, EASY WAY TO GET THESE KEY POSTURAL MUSCLES ACTIVATED, WHILE INHIBITING MUSCLES THAT ARE TIGHT AND FIRING TOO MUCH!
