Spinal Postural Screenings

If you live in Tacoma, Washington or the surrounding areas, chances are your daily routine involves long commutes, desk work, or staying active outdoors. All of these can take a toll on your spine and posture over time. At Accident and Injury Chiropractic, we offer spinal and posture screenings to help our local community stay ahead of pain and maintain better health.

What Is Spinal and Posture Screening?

Spinal and posture screening is a non-invasive evaluation designed to assess the alignment of your spine and the balance of your posture. Our chiropractors use this screening to detect early signs of misalignment, muscular imbalances, or postural problems that could lead to discomfort, mobility issues, or long-term spinal degeneration.

Screenings are quick, painless, and highly informative. They can be done in-office or even at a corporate wellness program. One of chiropractors evaluate the symmetry of your shoulders, hips, and head position, as well as spinal curvature, to identify any red flags that may warrant further attention.

Why Is Posture Important?

Posture plays a key role in how your body functions. Poor posture can lead to a variety of issues including:

Neck and back pain
Headaches and migraines
Reduced lung capacity
Poor digestion
Fatigue and reduced energy levels
Limited mobility and flexibility

Correcting posture early on helps prevent these issues from developing or becoming worse. When your spine is properly aligned, your nervous system functions more efficiently, your muscles work in balance, and your body can move and heal more effectively.

Who Should Get a Spinal and Posture Screening?

Spinal and posture screenings are beneficial for people of all ages. They are especially helpful for:

Office workers who sit for extended periods
Students carrying heavy backpacks
Athletes or active individuals
Individuals recovering from an accident or injury
Anyone experiencing chronic discomfort or stiffness

Even if you are not currently experiencing symptoms, a screening can help identify potential problems before they turn into painful conditions.

Our goal is to help you live without pain and achieve optimal wellness. Our spinal and posture screenings are the first step toward creating a personalized care plan tailored to your body’s needs.
