Do you have chronic pain?
If you answered yes, it could mean that you test positive for a movement impairment syndrome. You see, when you sustain alignment in a non-ideal posture or repeat movements in a specific direction in your daily routine, you can create the conditions in your body that lead to several musculoskeletal conditions.
That minor ache or pain can grow into something much more troublesome down the road. Do you really want to take the "wait and see" approach?
