Posture plays a major role in the health of the muscular system. An unbalanced posture, either related to work, past injury or purely bad habits, puts a tremendous strain on the body, which can lead to pain, stiffness or discomfort within the soft tissues, and /or a reduction of flexibility in the joints.
