📱 FORWARD HEAD POSTURE: The Hidden Cause Behind Chronic Pain
Did you know that for every inch your head shifts forward, it adds 10 extra pounds of pressure on your neck?
That means your 12 lb. head can put up to 42 lbs. of strain on your spine — leading to:
🔴 Disc herniations
🔴 Nerve irritation
🔴 Poor circulation
🔴 Fatigue, fibromyalgia-like symptoms, and more
🔬 Research from the Mayo Clinic, USC, and Modern Manual Therapy confirms that forward head posture (aka “text neck”) doesn’t just cause discomfort — it can affect spinal alignment, blood flow, and long-term nerve function.
At Auracle Chiropractic, we focus on correcting misalignments at the top of the spine, where posture begins. When your head is on straight, everything else starts working better.
