Improving postural stability may help with pain that is biomechanical/structural in nature. Many people walk with a forward leaning position due to the head dropping forward, protraction (forward movement) of the shoulders, tight hip flexors and weak glutes. Here two simple techniques that you can use while sitting, walking, running and during many other types of exercise. Not only will the first one improve your posture, it is also excellent for shoulder relaxation.
1) Scapular Control includes
a) Gently tightening the muscles between the shoulder blades
b) Dropping the shoulder blades
2) Shortening your stride length means taking shorter steps so your foot lands closer to your body rather than further away. This lessens impact and places less stress and strain on the feet and legs.
