Frisco, TX 75036
Modern Life's Impact on Your Posture
Does your neck hurt after a long day at work? Do you notice your shoulders rolling forward or experience persistent lower back pain? You might be dealing with Upper or Lower Cross Syndrome - common postural conditions affecting many people in today's digital world.
At Zahn Chiropractic in Frisco, TX, Dr. Robert Zahn specializes in treating these increasingly common postural syndromes with evidence-based approaches that deliver real results.
What Are Upper and Lower Cross Syndromes?
If you spend hours at a computer or looking down at your phone, you're at risk for Upper Cross Syndrome. This condition occurs when:
- Your head leans forward
- Shoulders roll forward
- Upper back appears rounded
- Neck muscles become strained
As Dr. Zahn explains, "If you live in 2024, you probably have it to some degree. The rolling of shoulders combined with forward-leaning head increases strain on muscles supporting the head, while causing tightening of anterior muscles and weakening of posterior muscles."
Lower Cross Syndrome affects your core and lower back region, characterized by:
- Weakened core muscles
- Tight hip flexors
- Excessive curve in the lower back
- Altered weight distribution on spine
"Lower Cross Syndrome involves weakening of the anterior core and glutes with tightening of the hamstrings and hip flexors," notes Dr. Zahn. "This causes that sway back and too much curve in the low back, shifting weight distribution to the back side of the vertebrae instead of the body."
