The answer is a resounding yes! Why? When we sit or stand with improper alignment, we put extra stress on our spine and its surrounding muscles and ligaments. Over time, this can lead to pain, discomfort, and even injury.

Some common types of poor posture that can contribute to back pain include slouching, hunching over a desk or computer, and standing with an uneven weight distribution. Correcting poor posture can help alleviate back pain and prevent future issues.
