#Infographic: #TechNeck Alberta's #chiropractors are seeing a rise in strain injuries and poor posture due to the increase of digital device use. 📱 These strains and pains associated with #texting and spending time on handheld devices have been dubbed "tech neck." Thanks to our love for technology, this condition isn't going away anytime soon. Why does tech neck matter? Whether they're craning their neck poring over a textbook or scrolling through Facebook on their #phones, children and adolescents are especially at risk for injuring themselves. It's estimated that for every inch forward that you crane your neck, an additional 10 pounds of pressure is being applied to your neck. That adds up fast and can harm your spine in a number of ways, including: #NeckPain, hunched shoulders and #headaches. If you or your child has a recurring ache or persistent pain, it is a good idea to consult with a #chiropractor. The sooner you address the problem, the more successful you will be in combatting tech neck and ensuring strong #posture. ⚠️ #TextNeck #PhoneNeck 👐💆 #GetAdjusted #Chiropractic (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDmI6kzhxh9/?igshid=17myhta43i6tk

Give your neck a rest and look up! Looking down at our devices is not bad by itself. 📱 The main problem is the frequency and duration that we spend looking down EVERYDAY! The #smartphone keeps us locked in, enjoying our screens and staring down. #TextNeck #PhoneNeck ⚠️ #posture (at Marpole) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_8TIgjhI0Y/?igshid=x9vdxshs46hb

Is your telephone a pain in the neck, and causing you distress? A recent study revealed that over 50% of office workers suffer from chronic #NeckPain, and that many of them attribute this pain to using the #telephone. 📞 You’re at work, and while you’re on the #phonewith an important customer, you find that you need to look up information about his account, either on paper or on your computer. ❌ Naturally, you can’t do this effectively with one hand holding the phone, so you cradle the phone on your shoulder, with your neck tilted to one side to hold the receiver in place. And you do all this while simultaneously talking, typing, and moving around trying to find the papers you need. 🙋 Do find yourself doing this? And do you often feel tension or pain in your neck and shoulders at the end of the day? There is a connection: #PhoneNeck ☎. Your neck was designed to be upright #posture, not held to one side in an attempt to hold something in place against your shoulder. These movements are unnatural, and place strain on the muscles of the neck, shoulders, and upper back. Over time this strain can cause repetitive #stress injuries that manifest as headaches, neck pain, shoulder and arm pain, and even breathing problems. ⚠ (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-YGBd2hb7o/?igshid=utb8fpffvr2d

We are attached to text messaging on their cell phones 📱 — and doctors are starting to see the painful results. The distinct #posture often seen in texting is causing an overuse syndrome in avid users that’s been labeled “#TextNeck.” Tilting the head forward, as is typically done to view and create text messages, forces the neck muscles, tendons, and ligaments to strain to hold the head up. 👐 In recent years, physicians are seeing signs of premature degeneration of the spine in patients who are decades younger than would typically be expected. 💆‍♀ This type of wear-and-tear-related damage has generally been more common in older adults or those in occupations, such as dentistry and welding, that require keeping the head bent forward for extended periods of time. #PhoneNeck (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-AhOU5hK1-/?igshid=tnag9q2odz32

#PhoneNeck ☎ Who's guilty of cradling the phone between your neck and shoulders? Who's done it for hours at a time!? 🙋 ❌ Your #spine bends when using your shoulder to cradle your #handset. 📞 Our neck is forced in a very unnatural position, which can lead to pain and dysfunction if not corrected. We encourage you to limit time spent in this #posture. ⚠ Solution? Hold the handset or try a headset, and take frequent breaks to #stretch your neck.
