Poor posture refers to the incorrect positioning of the body while sitting, standing, or lying down, where the spine is not maintained in its natural alignment.
Spinal misalignment (also known as subluxation) occurs when one or more vertebrae shift out of their proper position, placing stress on muscles, joints, nerves, and surrounding tissues.

Scoliosis is a condition where the spine curves sideways in an “S” or “C” shape, instead of being straight when viewed from the back.
It can affect children, teenagers, and adults, and the severity can range from mild to severe.

• In children, scoliosis often develops during growth spurts.

What is Sciatica / Nerve Impingement?

Sciatica is a condition caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, the largest nerve in the body. This nerve starts in the lower back (lumbar spine), passes through the hips and buttocks, and travels down each leg.

A slipped disc, also known as a herniated disc, occurs when one of the soft cushions (discs) between the bones of the spine (vertebrae) becomes damaged.

Each spinal disc has:

• a soft, gel-like center (nucleus pulposus), and

• a tough outer layer (annulus fibrosus).
