Healthy Habits to Keep Your Spine Happy at Home
Your spine is the foundation for every movement, every breath, and every sensation your body experiences. Yet for many people, spinal health only becomes a priority once discomfort or pain sets in. The good news? Supporting your spine doesn’t have to wait until there’s a problem—you can start today, right at home.
At The Hive Chiropractic Wellness Center in Irving, TX, Dr. Crystal Hogan encourages her patients to build small, daily habits that keep the spine strong, flexible, and balanced between visits.
Simple At-Home Habits for a Healthier Spine
1. Screen Awareness
Keep screens (Tv, Computer monitors etc.) at eye level and avoid hunching over your phone or tablet on the couch. A small adjustment in screen position can protect your neck and upper back over time.
2. Posture Check-Ins
Roll your shoulders back and take a few deep breaths throughout the day. This quick reset keeps you from slumping and encourages proper alignment.
3. Supportive Sleep
Choose a pillow that supports the natural curve of your neck. If you’re a side sleeper, place a pillow between your knees to ease lower back pressure.
4. Daily Movement
Gentle stretching, walking, or yoga can help keep your spine mobile while supporting your nervous system’s overall function.
Bonus Tip: Schedule regular chiropractic checkups to maintain alignment and prevent issues before they start.
