Poor Posture - A common problem
I came into therapy with neck/upper back pain from years of too much sitting for long periods with poor posture. The pain had recently worsened from my regular practice of break dancing including many head/hand stands.
I was given several exercises and a lumbar roll to improve my neck retraction and posture. Results were immediately noticeable and over the next couple weeks I greatly increased my flexibility and eliminated the pain.
Joe Sr. and Enida were very helpful and answered a lot of my questions.
