How to Protect Your Spine With Better Posture One of the most effective ways to alleviate back and neck pain is to address bad posture and learn to find your ideal posture. Posture refers to the position(s) of a person's body in space. By properly aligning spine joints with one another, we can move more freely and perform daily activities comfortably. Our awareness of the postures we hold our body in is based on our nervous system's feedback and depends on our activities. This feedback helps us find and keep the alignment of the spinal joints over one another. Unfortunately, prolonged postures tend to dull these senses. The longer we stay in a position, the more our body becomes used to it, and the harder it is to get out of the offending position.
