How To Keep Your Spine From Freezing This Winter

As the winter season creeps in, many of us begin to feel a chill not just in the air, but in our bones too. And no, it isn't just your imagination, it's your spine begging for some TLC!

While cold weather doesn't directly cause back pain, it can lead us to some unhealthy habits during these chilly months.

First, it's important to keep stretching! Simple stretches can make a big difference for your spine. Think if it like a morning coffee for your back - an essential start to the day.

Next, don't let the chilly weather make you go into hibernation mode. Keep moving! Your body needs routine movement and exercise as it keeps the blood flowing and your muscles warm!

Last but certainly not least, keep your posture in check. It's tempting to curl up into a ball on the couch in from of the fireplace. But this isn't doing your spine any favors. Be mindful of your posture!

Keep your spine warm, keep it moving, and most importantly, keep it happy!
