How to Achieve Better Posture with the Core® Perfect Posture Corrector
Brian Acton
Practicing good posture is an important life skill that contributes to your overall physical and mental health. Good posture can help you achieve better health outcomes, while poor posture can lead to pain, additional wear and tear on your body, and other issues.
With that in mind, we’re excited to announce our newest product: the Core® Perfect Posture Corrector. This wearable corrector helps you practice good posture and relieve some of the issues you may experience from years of bad habits.
Why Good Posture is Important
There’s a lot more to posture than just standing up straight because it looks good. Here are just a few ways that good posture can directly benefit your wellbeing:
- Boosted confidence and social standing. Several studies have suggested that good posture can increase confidence and even cognitive functions. It may also lead others to perceive you as confident and assertive.
- Reduced neck and back pain. Hunching forward and slouching puts additional stress on your neck and back, which can cause pain and even permanent spinal changes over time. Practicing good posture helps reduce pain or avoid it entirely.
- Protected joints. While you naturally put wear and tear on your joints over time, bad posture can cause your joints to wear down unevenly, leading to joint pain. Practicing good posture will distribute wear and tear evenly across your joints.
- Healthier muscles. When you stand, sit, or walk with good posture, your muscles are working as they are intended to. When you don’t, the muscles you’re using less may become underdeveloped and the muscles you’re overusing could become fatigued.
- Improved lung capacity. When you slouch forward, your diaphragm can’t fully expand your chest and lungs as you breathe. This reduced lung capacity can limit your ability to perform physical activities as effectively.
- Improved digestion. Slouching forward also squeezes the organs in your abdomen, limiting your ability to digest food as effectively. Poor posture can even lead to digestion issues like heartburn and acid reflux.
How the Core® Perfect Posture Corrector Encourages Good Posture
The Core® Perfect Posture Corrector is worn around the back and midsection and over the shoulders. It can be used while working at a desk, standing for long periods, and performing any other type of everyday physical activity.
It places the shoulders in the proper spinal alignment, improving the wearer’s awareness of their own posture. At the same time, it applies indirect pressure to the spine, stability to the lower back, support to the joints and muscles without restricting range of motion.
In this way, the Core® Perfect Posture Corrector can boost your confidence by encouraging proper spinal alignment, help you avoid the negative outcomes of poor posture, and reduce any symptoms you may already experience as a result of poor postural habits.
