"A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind."
- Morihei Ueshiba
Chiropractors realign spines which have slipped out of place, applying pressure to the spinal cord. The principle is that by relieving this pressure it opens the nerves for communication throughout our body, enabling it to work more optimally. This includes various things like digestion, mental clarity, work efficiency, and energy.
Eastern philosophies recognize the benefits of proper alignment too. According to them, there are energy pathways through our body called meridians. If the flow of energy is blocked along these meridians, your body is out of balance. Restoring this balance has the same benefits as chiropractic.
We can manage our own alignment by simply maintaining proper posture. Keep your back straight both while standing and while sitting. This posture can be exhausting to maintain, but speaking from personal experience, the energy lift is worth it!
