Posture Confidence - More Dowager Hump Info

Stretch, stretch and stretch. You can beat bad posture.

I think I have that. It's right behind my neck. I'm 14 and when I was younger I'd always walk with my head down. Low-confidence. And now that I'm older it won't go away. I have way more self-assurance and everything, but this "hump" is keeping me from reaching the place where I would like to be. How can I make it go away? Will exercises help?

Yes, exercises can definitely help! There are specific exercises that can strengthen the back to reduce the hump. And, there are stretches for the front of your body to reduce "tugging" your body

@JUDYizm, The earlier that you start, the easier it should be to make changes. I wouldn't be able to say that it will definitely go away. But if you are making an effort and you are not getting the results you want, have your parents take you to a chiropractor. It may require an x-ray to see what is going on at the spine level.

I wish you well!
