Updated: Jan 12

Break Out of Upper Crossed Syndrome: Fix Your Posture for Good


Usually beginning in childhood, made worse by prolonged study in teenage years and then in adulthood with prolonged sitting in front of the computer/phone/tablet.



Over time we develop a flexion dominant posture. The pecs, upper traps, levator scapular become shortened and tight



Bad posture ? It could be upper crossed syndrome
Bad posture ? It could be upper crossed syndrome

The Rhomboids, serratus anterior, middle and lower traps, and deep neck flexors are weakened


Other conditions associated with the upper cross syndrome are: cervical facet pain, cervicogenic headaches, anterior shoulder impingement, thoracic facet pain, rotator cuff injuries, tension headaches, thoracic outlet syndrome, spinal degeneration, and dowager hump


What we do-We adjust the cervical and thoracic spine, stretch to the shortened muscles
