Posture Information | Medical Back Support

Just because a healthcare professional hands you a posture device that you consider to be a medical back support, this doesn't mean that the brace should be worn forever.

Hardly anyone visits their doctor when they're feeling good. They are usually in pain or some sort of a "health crisis." This is the time that you take the medication, get the shot, or wear a brace.

In a crisis, the top priority is to stop the pain... not make you healthy. If the pain is stopped, then you can start taking preventative measures that can help keep the pain from coming back again.

Wearing the medical back support gives your back the extra stability it needs during your time of crisis, but wearing it long term can cause even more problems.

When the brace is on you, your posture muscles are receiving extra support because they are not able to work to the level that you need to keep the back stabilized.

If you continue to wear the brace, they will grow weaker (since they are not being used). Get your back muscles too weak and you'll be forced to wear the back brace indefinitely until you are able to build up your posture.

Follow your doctor's instructions, but get clear on what the treatment is doing for you in your moment of need so that you can make sure you don't get to that crisis point any time soon.

"Got Great Results In Just 2 Weeks!"

Having great success using the lower back exercises from Dr. Cordova's Posture Confidence DVD, I didn't hesitate to try her exercises for the neck.

I wasn't disappointed! After 2 weeks, my neck and shoulders began to feel and look better. I also found the ebook very informative and easy to read. It's a good reference to have!

Thank you!

Pain Relief From Neck And Back Problems "With Little Effort"!

"Dr. Cordova, I have just read your book and find it to be very 'eye opening'.

My job typically has long hours and requires international air travel. Both require that I sit in the same position for long periods of time. Without even knowing what happened, I found that my shoulders were rounding, my neck would ache, my head would ache, and my back felt like it was “going out”. On the airplane, I struggle for comfort and work myself into remarkable positions.

After reading your book, I find that -- with very little effort -- I can perform your recommended exercises and relieve this pain. I thought that the pain resulting from these activities was something I had to live with. Your book has taught me that this is not true.

Thank you very much for revealing this wisdom. I feel better already."
