Ever hear of anything called Bad Smartphone posture?? Well, I bet about 50 odd years ago those 3 words together would have made absolutely no sense - something so unheard of it almost sounds absurd!! But Oh how times have changed, and Bad Smartphone posture is fast making its rounds and taking the world by storm!! So what exactly does it mean?? Well exactly what you think it does... As we spend an increasing amount of time staring down at our smartphones, laptops, and various other gadgets we are constantly putting our heads in a slumped over position, this allows our necks to bend at an unnatural and undesirable angle, thereby subjecting our cervical spines to massive amounts of load, pressure and strain!! And you can think, as the hours we spend sending emails, texts, Whatsapps etc. start to add up and multiply as we go about our days and our lives so does the strain placed on your neck and ultimately your entire body (Remember, the body is a series of interlinking parts - where one part significantly influences the next causing a chain reaction)!! Check out this very interesting article to learn a little more about it - some of the facts might just shock and surprise you!! Definitely worth the read!! Have a Happy slump-free Monday!! :) cbsnews/news/omg-youre-texting-your-way-to-back-pain/
