According to Nobel Prize recipient Dr. Roger Sperry, 90% of the brain’s energy is committed to processing and maintaining the body’s relationship to gravity. That means your posture could be the single most important factor of your overall health. Physical balance includes many factors such as; health and proper mechanics of the spine and it’s curves, ligament integrity, muscle fitness and balance, flexibility, and more. Even small disruptions in that balance such as injuries, surgical incision sites, previous fractures, or everyday negative posture can dramatically affect not just function, but how long your body will last due to mechanical wear and tear.
