What is the significance of posture correction?

Essentially, it helps the body get rid of the vicious cycle of compensatory strain by adjusting muscle tension and joint alignment. On the basis of pain-free comfort, it also takes into account the improvement of appearance and temperament. It has never been a "beauty metaphysics", but it has indeed been oversold by many marketing people.

I just received a 24-year-old girl who works as an e-commerce operator last month. Her head stretches forward 4 centimeters. She has suffered from migraines at least two or three times a week for the past six months. She went to the hospital for a brain CT scan and a cervical vertebra test, and there were no organic problems. The doctor just told her to lower her head, and she held it and tried. To adjust the mentality of trying, she first relaxed the tense chest muscles and upper trapezius muscles, and then practiced the strength of the deep neck flexors and middle and lower trapezius muscles for a period of time. Less than three weeks later, when she came last week, she said she only had pain once this week, and it was because she stayed up late to catch the 618 sale. If you say this is the "credit" of the correction, it is actually not a big deal. It is just the return of her neck muscles that have been stretched. Before, her cervical spine was like a suspension bridge that was being pulled forward. The muscles were so stretched every day that they were about to break. It was strange that she didn't feel pain.

Of course, there are many people who are just looking good. Last month, there was a little girl who was going to take a wedding dress. Her breasts were very obvious. When she tried on a tube top wedding dress, she always felt that her neck was short and unattractive. She adjusted her shoulder and chest strength and power-generating habits for two weeks. When filming the original film, the photographer asked her if she had practiced Pilates recently. The lines of her shoulders and neck were much smoother, which saved a lot of effort in making photos.

But to be honest, posture correction is so popular on the Internet that correcting O-shaped legs can make you grow 3 centimeters taller, and adjusting the pelvis to tilt forward can cure gynecological diseases. This is purely an IQ tax. No wonder many people think that posture correction is a scam. I also have friends who do exercise rehabilitation and hold a completely different view. They feel that as long as there is no pain or limited movement function, there is no need to mess with the posture. After all, the normal human body is not completely symmetrical. Slight shoulder height and leg length are not "problems" at all as long as they do not affect daily life. On the contrary, many people wear correction belts every day in pursuit of the "perfect posture" and strain their chests, which makes the muscles stiff and causes strain.

In the final analysis, there is no standard answer to the meaning of posture correction. If you are already suffering from posture problems that affect your life, it can help you solve the real pain. This is the biggest meaning.； If you just want to stand taller and look better on camera, it can satisfy your needs. ； If you don’t feel any discomfort at all, even if you have round shoulders and a hunched back, you don’t need to be fooled into spending money randomly by online anxiety marketing. Being comfortable is better than anything else.
