Importance of Body Alignment

Body alignment is important. It affects many aspects of your health. But proper body alignment is more than just good posture it can help with body mechanics. Good body alignment will keep your body moving, sitting, standing, working, exercising, and being active for a long time.

Proper alignment is very important, not only for your back, but for your overall health as well. Proper body alignment helps the major systems in your body work better: digestive system, respiratory system, nervous system, immune system and more. In other words, everything runs better when the body is aligned. If our spine is out of alignment, it puts stress on the nerves exiting the spinal cord and in turn greatly lessens the efficiency of the major system affected by this stress.

Proper body alignment when exercising, prevents injuries. Also, when you are in alignment, you use less energy and most importantly put less stress on the joints. When movements are done from poor alignment position, there is greater wear and tear on joints and a greater risk of injury.

So for overall health and wellbeing, get your body back into proper alignment by having regular Bowen Therapies, massages, Reflexology, Acupressure. This will release the stress and tension within the muscles and fascia surrounding the muscles, allowing the body to realign itself.
