AUBURN, Ala. - TelAve -- While modern technology has revolutionized our daily lives, it also comes with unintended consequences for our health. From long hours at the computer to constant texting, these habits are taking a toll on our necks and backs—affecting people of all ages.

One of the most common causes of neck pain, headaches, and shoulder tension is Forward Head Posture, often referred to as "text neck." This condition arises from hours spent hunched over screens, leading to spinal strain, poor posture, and in some cases, chronic pain.

"I'm seeing more patients than ever with posture-related issues," says Dr. Gordon Fimreite of Chiropractic in Auburn–Opelika. "The natural 'C' curve of the neck is being stressed beyond its limits, which leads to a range of painful conditions."

According to Dr. Fimreite, for every inch the head moves forward from its neutral position, it adds 10 pounds of strain on the neck, shoulders, and back. This extra stress can lead to muscle fatigue, disc issues, arthritis, and nerve compression.

How to Correct Forward Head Posture

Dr. Fimreite emphasizes that chiropractic care is one of the most effective ways to address Forward Head Posture. Through targeted spinal adjustments and personalized care plans, patients can restore alignment and reduce nerve interference.

"Adjustments relieve stress on the nervous system," he explains. "But lasting change also comes from improving daily habits."
