What causes poor posture?
Posture can be influenced by prolonged sitting, repetitive activities, reduced physical activity, muscle weakness, work setup, pain, fatigue, habits, and individual body structure.
Can physiotherapy improve posture?
Prolonged or uncomfortable positions can contribute to symptoms in some people, but neck and back pain usually have multiple possible causes. A physiotherapist can assess relevant contributing factors.
