5 Simple At-Home Habits That Can Make or Break Your Spine Health

What you do outside the clinic matters just as much as what happens inside it.

1. Sit Less, Move More

Prolonged sitting compresses spinal discs. Try standing, stretching, or walking every 30-45 minutes.

2. Sleep Smarter

Use a supportive pillow and sleep on your side or back. Stomach sleeping strains the neck and lower back.

3. Stay Hydrated

Spinal discs are mostly water. Dehydration can make them less resilient and more prone to injury.

4. Lift With Intention

Bend at the hips and knees, not with your waist. Keep objects close to your body.

5. Manage Stress

Stress causes muscle tension and poor posture, which can lead to chronic pain.

Small habits, done consistently, can dramatically improve spinal health.
