Rehabilitation
Basmajian states “….among mammals, man has the most economical of antigravity mechanisms once the upright posture is attained. The expenditure of muscular energy for what seems to be a most awkward position is actually economical”
Providing we keep our upright position in the correct anatomical position we have energy that is burned economically. But most of us in 20th century living are ‘moulded’ to our regular activities, sitting at a desk in front of a pc! A common postural fault, rounded shoulders with forward extension of neck.
If the head is 2cm forward off its axis point, the head weights twice its weight. 4 cm forward of its axis point the head weights 4 times its weight.( ref Paul Chek) Imagine how stressful and painful all that weight is on the small muscles of the neck. Postural imbalance can lead to pain, muscle dysfunction and blocked circulation. And you wonder why you have pain across the back of your neck and shoulders!
Instead of rolling your shoulders back, bring your head back and slide your shoulder blades down your back. Do you feel the strain ease?
