Low Back Pain from Sitting Too Long with Dr. Kelly Baltuska, DC

Here is a short video that explains how the human body is not meant to be in a seated posture for extended periods of time. Unlock your body from the seated posture position. The hip flexor and hamstring muscles become short and tight, while the gluteal muscles become lengthened and inhibited. This is sometimes described as “pattern overload” or “lower crossed syndrome”. By taking just 5 minutes to take a break from sitting, you can use these techniques to prevent your Neuro-Musculo-Skeletal system from adapting to this poor seated posture. Share this with your friends and family who are stuck in a seated position for way too long.

Get up and move,

Kelly Baltuska, DC
