If you want to keep your back straight as you age, don't rely solely on orthopedic pillows and massage. The main thing is to give the body a daily signal: we are still working. Otherwise, by the age of thirty, a stoop appears, the shoulders turn forward, and by the evening there is aching between the shoulder blades.
Our body, with a sedentary lifestyle, gradually turns off the deep back muscles that keep the spine in the correct position. Without regular activity, they weaken, and the load is redistributed to the joints and ligaments. This leads to chronic fatigue, headaches and the feeling that your back is not yours.
In the morning, the spine especially needs to be awakened. Until nine o'clock he still sleeps in compression from the night and needs some light stretching and activation. By eleven o'clock the body is ready for more conscious movements – this is the best time to strengthen the core muscles. After seven in the evening, it is better to minimize the load: smooth movements and stroking along the back are enough.
If you do one simple practice every day, you will notice a change in your posture within three weeks. The shoulders fall into place on their own, the gaze becomes higher, and the pain between the shoulder blades disappears.
Question and answer:
How to relieve pain between the shoulder blades?
Perform a daily 5-minute routine to activate the deep back muscles.
Why does my back hurt even without load?
Due to weakness of the core muscles. They do not support the spine, and the load is placed on the ligaments.
