Description
Join Ellie for a chat on all things posture and its role in improving your bone density. As you'll go onto learn, posture exercises themselves don't help specifically with improving bone density (they are gentle and low impact) BUT posture exercises indirectly help with improving bone density a lot. When your posture is imbalanced and your bones not held in alignment, not only do they wear away, but, due to this deterioration and pain, you'll start avoiding loading painful joints. When this starts to happen, those joints will run the risk of becoming brittle. Aligning your posture means your body will improve its fight with gravity and you'll improve your bone density.
If you ever have any thoughts or questions about anything you'd like covered on 'Posture-lating' then please do get in touch with Ellie!
