Straight Talk about Good Posture
Good posture improves balance and circulation. Poor posture is bad for your health. It throws your head forward and strains the muscles in the neck, shoulders, back, and knees–a prescription for pain and injury down the road.

If so, it’s time to sit up, straighten up, balance your load, change shoes, and take a break. Use this infographic for quick tips to improve posture while sitting at a computer or standing.
