WELCOME to The WELLNESS FOURplay Podcast Episode 20: Posture - The Window to Wellness   We KNOW that Knowledge is the "foreplay" to your Wellness, so we want to make sure you are equipped to be your OWN Super Hero in your wellness journey! Equipping you with the KNOWLEDGE you need to have the HEALTH you so desire!    1. WHAT IS POSTURE? Posture is the position in which someone holds their body when standing or sitting. We will be talking about posture and why it is vital to your wellness.   2. WHY IS HAVING GOOD POSTURE SO IMPORTANT?  It determines how efficiently your Nervous System (spine, spinal cord and spinal nerves) functions, and as a result how well YOU function.  It can also determine whether you experience osteoarthritis, and how to minimize it.  It can even determine if you are able to have children.   3. WHAT DOES HAVING BAD POSTURE FEEL LIKE?  The obvious... headaches, back pain, shoulder pain, knee and hip pain, but often less obvious feelings are numbness, infertility, bedwetting past 5 years old, chronic ear infections, allergies, cold hands or feet, abnormal menstrual cycles, vision, taste and smell decrease, and MANY more.   4. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO IMPROVE POSTURE?  First determine if you have abnormal posture by two quick home evaluations: Check the soles of your hard soled/heeled shoes (dress shoes preferably). If soles are worn unequally, left to right, you have a posture problem. Place two bathroom scales on the floor side by side, calibrate and stand on them at the same time. Anything over 5 pounds difference on the scales indicates you have a posture problem.
