About Your Back

Оглавление

Before we try to explain just how Active Release Techniques can address and resolve spinal conditions, we should first spend a little time understanding our spinal anatomy and how its unique kinetic chain relationships integrates the functions of the neck, shoulders, back, hip, and extremities.

The human back is composed of a series of complex structures that work together to allow you to perform your daily activities. When functioning correctly, your spinal musculature is incredibly strong, supportive, and flexible through all the planes of motion.

Unlike many muscles in your body, the muscles of your back are always active and in continuous use (except when sleeping). These muscles form an essential part of your core musculature and act to:

 Help you to maintain your posture in a neutral position so that your body can effectively distribute the daily stresses placed upon it.

 Hold your torso in an upright position.

 Form the fulcrum through which the force required to move your arms and legs is generated.

A back that is not impeded in its movement, with strong flexible muscles, is essential for you to perform your normal daily tasks without adding numerous internal stresses to your body.
