Added 2023-08-07 02:16:07 +0000 UTCThe pelvis is a structure that connects the lower extremities and trunk and plays a role in controlling the balance of force between the upper and lower body. This change in pelvic tilt affects the length of the muscles around the spine and hip joint. Bad posture affects millions of people each year, and the number is only rising. Anterior pelvic tilt (APT) is one of the most common manifestations of bad posture. In more severe cases, APT causes pain, as well as decreased functionality. Anterior pelvic tilt back pain can be caused by sitting for long periods and regularly wearing high heels—both of which contribute to short, tight hip flexors—as well as weak glutes, hamstrings and core muscles. Tight hip flexors create an anterior pull on the pelvis known as an anterior pelvic tilt. This alters posture and also inhibits, or turns off, the opposing muscle group, the gluteus maximus, leading to muscle imbalances. Microspasms or trigger points often develop in the overused/tight muscles like the hip flexors. Learn more and align your body with me at p@treon link in socials
