Chiropractic adjustments combined with posture-specific exercises can meaningfully improve the muscle imbalances and joint restriction caused by prolonged forward-head posture.
Raising your phone or screen closer to eye level, taking frequent breaks, and strengthening the upper-back muscles all help reduce the strain.
