Lordosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine, which is externally characterized by an excessively rounded back.. In order to reduce pain arising from lordosis, discomfort and correct posture, there is a set of special exercises of physiotherapy exercises.

The human spine has a curved S-shape, which helps to properly distribute the load on it and successfully maintain body balance.. However, in some cases, the S-curve of the spine becomes too strong, no longer allowing you to keep the body straight.. In medicine, such an abnormal curvature is called lordosis, in the case when the bulge of the spine is directed forward, kyphiosis, if the spine curves backward, and scoliosis in all other curvatures.. Very often, lordosis and kyphiosis accompany scoliosis that has developed earlier..

The causes of scoliosis, lordosis and kyphiosis may be congenital anomalies of the spine or acquired curvature. Almost any activity and causes that cause excessive stress on it can provoke the development of a curvature of the spine.. This can be sedentary work, lifting and carrying weights, overweight, pregnancy and other reasons that provoke spinal deformity.. One reason is bad posture..

Sometimes you can hear that even daily exercise to strengthen the abdominal muscles does not give almost any effect.. Muscles do not become elastic, and the stomach remains saggy and flabby. In most cases, the cause of this may be an increased curvature of the lumbar spine.. In appearance, this is manifested by an excessive protrusion of the pelvis, a sagging, flabby abdomen and a shortened, thickened waist.. This bad posture is sometimes referred to as "

Causes of the saddle posture The formation of such a posture most often occurs in women and does not depend on their age. It can form in children and adolescents, as well as in adult women..

In young children, the causes of such an anomaly may be early attempts to sit or stand on their feet, as well as a weak skeletal system as a result of rickets.. Curvature of posture in adult women is most often formed during pregnancy or with significant excess weight..

During the correction of lordosis, doctors very often recommend using a special reclinator bandage that fixes the spine in a certain position, which allows you to accelerate the formation of the correct posture. Thanks to him, most of the symptoms of osteochondrosis, osteoporosis, kyphosis, scoliosis, intervertebral hernia, as well as other possible diseases of the spine noticeably weaken, which contributes to its faster alignment..

Physical exercises, to correct posture with lordrosis, are aimed at ensuring that, as a result, the angle of inclination of the pelvis changes in the direction of decrease. To do this, it is necessary to strengthen the abdominal muscles and extensor muscles, and stretch the ligaments of the lumbar and lower thoracic spine, the muscles of the lumbar region and the flexor muscles. The exercises proposed below are aimed at solving two problems at the same time - straightening the posture and returning the sagging abdomen to a flat state.
