Introduction:

Most people don’t think of their breathing when they visit the chiropractor. But proper posture and spinal alignment play a major role in how efficiently your lungs and diaphragm function. If you’ve ever felt like it’s harder to take a deep breath or noticed tension in your chest or ribs, your spine may be part of the problem.

At The Chiro in Pleasant Grove, Utah,Dr. Bruce R. Lowryhelps patients restore proper posture and spinal movement—leading to easier breathing and better overall health.

How Posture Affects Your Breathing

Your ability to take a full, deep breath depends on the position of your ribs, spine, and diaphragm. When you slouch, hunch over a desk, or spend too much time looking down at your phone, your rib cage compresses and your diaphragm can’t expand fully.

This poor posture limits oxygen intake, reduces energy, and increases tension in the neck and shoulders. Over time, it can contribute to chronic fatigue, headaches, and even anxiety-like symptoms.

The Role of Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic adjustments help open up the chest and rib areas by improving spinal alignment and mobility. When your spine moves properly, your ribs and diaphragm can expand more freely, allowing you to breathe deeper and more efficiently.

Patients atThe Chirooften notice:

• Improved lung capacity and easier breathing

• Less tension in the shoulders and chest

• Better posture and energy levels

• A feeling of calm and relaxation after adjustments

Who Can Benefit

While anyone can experience restricted breathing from posture issues, chiropractic care can be especially helpful for:

• Office workers who sit most of the day

• Athletes looking to improve endurance

• People recovering from illness or respiratory strain

• Seniors dealing with stiffness and reduced mobility

Dr. Lowry tailors each adjustment to the patient’s specific needs, focusing on safe, gentle care that promotes both comfort and long-term results.
