The Text Neck Epidemic: How Constant Screen Use is Hurting Your Spine
In today’s digital world, excessive screen time has led to a widespread issue known as Text Neck. This condition occurs when prolonged forward head posture places excessive strain on the neck and spine, leading to discomfort and long-term health concerns.
How Text Neck Affects Your Health
- Neck and Shoulder Pain – Constantly looking down at a screen increases stress on muscles and joints.
- Headaches and Migraines – Poor posture can disrupt blood flow, leading to tension headaches.
- Reduced Mobility – Chronic misalignment can limit movement and flexibility over time.
- Spinal Degeneration – Prolonged forward head posture can accelerate wear and tear on the spine.
Preventing and Fixing Text Neck
- Raise Your Screen – Hold your phone at eye level to reduce strain on the neck.
- Take Breaks – Follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
- Strengthen and Stretch – Incorporate exercises that improve posture and relieve tension.
- Chiropractic Care – Regular adjustments help realign the spine and alleviate discomfort caused by poor posture.
Prioritize Your Spinal Health
