Most people think posture only affects their neck or back.
But your spine is protecting something much bigger… your nervous system.
When your head shifts forward and you spend hours slouched, it changes the mechanics of your cervical spine. That creates tension and pressure around the nerves that help regulate vital functions, including communication between your brain and heart.
Over time, that constant forward posture can keep your body in a low-grade stress state. Not because something is “damaged”… but because the signals aren’t flowing the way they’re designed to.
This is why posture is more than just how you look. It’s how your body functions.
The good news is, this is something you can correct.
At Birmingham Wellness Center, we don’t just chase symptoms. We look at how your body is moving, how your nervous system is functioning, and where stress patterns like this are showing up.
If you’ve been dealing with tension, poor posture, or just don’t feel like your body is functioning at its best… we can help!
