I am sharing this with you because Dr. Sherry McAllister, who was interviewed for this article, makes some great points. Check out the article that was recently featured in Hello Magazine. Sports chiropractor Dr Sherry McAllister reveals the hidden ‘micro-misalignments’ ruining your posture and a 5-step protocol to fix back pain From poor posture to sitting too long, our daily habits and movements can all contribute to an achy and weak back. But according to a chiropractor, with three intentional daily practices, you can maintain a healthy back and prevent any further issues from developing. “Align daily. Move often. Support your nervous system,” recommends Dr Sherry McAllister, a certified chiropractic sports physician and President of the Foundation for Chiropractic Progress (F4CP). The “Information Highway”: Why nervous system alignment matters The chiropractor says that your back is “an information highway” that supports your body in a number of ways, so it is important to take care of it. “It is how we view our back that will make all the difference. Your back isn’t just a structure of bones, ligaments, and muscles; it’s an information highway. When your spine is aligned, your nervous system performs at its best, helping you move, think, breathe, digest, and recover more efficiently,” Dr McAllister explains. “The nervous system is so incredibly important that it has its own protective barrier to trauma: the vertebrae. Yet, insults can impact its alignment, creating a slower, less optimal performance. Now that we can see how delicate it is, you should take a moment to reflect on the a-e, if you are really taking care of this amazing system.” Read more below The worst habits for your back, according to a chiropractor
