Back Pain from Poor Posture, Why Sit Up Straight? Easy Tips by Catz Austin Physical Therapy
Back Pain from Poor Posture, Why Sit Up Straight? Easy Tips by Catz Austin Physical Therapy
Poor posture and a slouched, slumped back can contribute to a wealth of physical dysfunction and pain in the back, hips, butt, thighs, legs, arms, shoulders, neck, hands, and well… you get the idea. In this video, Christie Powell, head of physical therapy at Catz Austin, explains how poor posture can cause low back pain and other issues like carpal tunnel and sciatica. This video and the rest of the series will give you easy tips and exercises to alleviate pain and discomfort.
Often when we are sitting at the computer, watching TV or movies, playing video games, and driving, we slump into poor posture and a curved spine. This exerts pressure throughout the entire body and over time will severely weaken the shoulders and back so that sitting correctly becomes uncomfortable.
The only way to improve posture is to begin changing your habits and to try and get in the habit of reminding yourself to sit up straight. A posture-buddy at work is a great idea so you can keep reminding each other, or you can set a timer or alarm on your desk.
Part 2 will feature Ron Vaughn demonstrating some sports massage techniques to relax and unwind the muscles so the chest and pecs can loosen and open up, freeing the spine to move into its natural position.
Part 3 will give you some easy exercises and stretches you can do at home to assist with a tight neck and shoulders or back pain. She also will show an exercise using a physio ball and a foam rolller.
Christie received her Masters from Texas State University and is currently pursuing her PhD in Kinesiology/Movement Science at the University of Texas. She is dedicated to working with youth and adult athletes and is involved in various programs to promote education and increase awareness of athletic injuries.

MRI Showed a Very Large Cervical Disc Herniation, Anterior Discectomy + Fusion Helped This Patient
Anne started experiencing pain shooting down her neck to her left shoulder and arm. Eventually the pain prevented her from walking her dogs which kept her in shape, she had trouble sleeping, and was loosing the function of her left arm.
Anne went to her primary care physician which recommended she get an MRI of her neck. The MRI demonstrated a very large C5-6 herniated disc. Her physician referred her to a specialist: Dr. Hamada. Dr. Hamada showed Anne exactly where her pain was coming from and explained how they were going to fix the problem. Anne was a little uneasy about how Dr. Hamada was going to use an anterior approach (front of the neck) but Dr. Hamada explained that This procedure is done through a small incision in the front of the neck resulting in minimal trauma to the neck tissues. This approach allows for minimal spinal nerve or cord traction and thus a quicker recovery period. Often a spinal fusion is done by placing a small piece of cadaver bone in between the two vertebrae. Occasionally, if the surgery involves more than one disc level or there is significant spinal cord compression, the we may need to place a small plate on the anterior cervical vertebrae in order to give further spinal stability. Because bone fusion takes time to grow, you will need to be in a cervical collar or brace for several weeks to allow complete recovery.
Anne underwent a anterior cervical discectomy and instrumented (plate & screws) anterior fusion in April of 2005. Anne said, When I woke up, the pain was completely gone. Anne said she could do everything she wanted to do right after surgery as long as she wore a neck brace while her bones were fusing. Learn more at: www.HamadaMD.com
