Our lifestyles perpetuate poor posture—hours of driving, sitting at desks, and staring down at our tablets and phones. Chiropractors in Vernon see this poor posture translate into pain and inflammation in the neck, mid-back, low back, shoulders and hips.

Look at yourself in the mirror. Do you have level shoulders? Is your head sticking out too far in front of your shoulders? Do you have a noticeable head tilt? These are examples of the postural imbalances that can create corresponding joint pain.

If these imbalances are not corrected, they can lead to advancing degenerative joint conditions. The joints will continue to wear-and-tear, causing long-term, permanent damage. Thankfully, Chiropractic can help restore joint alignment and range of motion, correcting postural imbalances and resulting in less pain—naturally.
