The column has a cervical lordosis, a thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis. Among these three curves must be a balance. A good posture means have a good balance in muscle tension and a good biomeccanica.Lo heart muscle will have effects on our body posture, can produce pain and biomechanical problems having an effect on a part or the whole body.
