Physical inactivity, 4ᵗʰ leading risk of mortality
Poor posture may affect bones and muscle health
The prolonged RMCO measures amid the Covid-19 pandemic have been disrupting our daily routine unprecedentedly where not only our movement is restricted, but our physical activity as well.

Globally, physical inactivity has been reported as the fourth leading risk factor for mortality¹.
Poor posture may strain bones and muscles
Physical inactivity or sedentary lifestyle over long period of time is one of the triggers for muscle loss and poor bone health. Long hours of working in front of a computer without having proper posture and breaks, could have detrimental effects to your health without you knowing. For example, sitting for too long can make our hip flexor muscles to shorten that leads to problems of the hip joints. Besides, other common troubles include poor posture, numbness, soreness and stiffness around the neck, shoulders, back and even legs. Poor posture may strain bones and muscles.
Strong bones, joints and muscles are important to support mobility
The changes in our bones and muscles may affect our movement such as walking and the strength to carry things and flexibility to do our daily chores. In some cases, it may lead to the development of serious health concerns such as osteoporosis and other musculoskeletal issues in the long term.
Musculoskeletal disorders, bone health and chiropractic care
Chiropractic care is one of the early prevention steps to help care for bone and muscle health. Having strong bones and muscles helps to protect you from falling, which is a common factor for bone fractures.
“We are healthcare professionals who perform diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular disorders alongside prevention counseling. ‘Neuro’ refers to the nerves while ‘muscular’ revolves around matters affecting the muscles,” explains Dr Sean Lee from Discover Chiropractic.
