Sitting and slouching flatten your spine's natural curves, reshaping it into a C. Your joints can't move right anymore, so your body keeps trying to move a spine that's compromised. That mismatch is why your pain keeps coming back.

long periods of sitting and slouching without proper support or awareness. And what can happen is we start to lose either the neck curve or the low back curve, or the mid-back curve becomes excessive. But then we're headed back toward that letter C, and we wanted to try so hard to create those curves way back in our life that we don't want to lose them. Because in this position, that's where the joints can move optimally and they protect our nervous system the best. When there's changes there, it creates dysfunction and inability to move, but we still want to move, so when we go to move but this isn't sitting and moving right, that conflict is what creates our neck pain and our back pain.
