the next step in alleviating our back
pain is to practice correct standing and
sitting posture correct posture can be
achieved through maintaining the neutral
spinal curves the first of these curves
is the low back arch throughout this
video I'll be reminding you to maintain
this arch rather than trying to flatten
out the low back arch the next curve
which reverses is this long thoracic
curve unfortunately in people with back
or neck pain they tend to exaggerate
this curve collapsing this way so
throughout this video I'll be reminding
you to maintain the length from your
belly button to your chest bone the
curve reverses again in the cervical
spine but the real key to maintaining a
nice alignment in the cervical spine is
to keep the Chi and very gently nodded
rather than poking the chin Ford if we
can maintain these curves that is the
key to good posture and having good
posture will help to alleviate your back
pain
