Neck pain and back pain also go hand in hand. It all goes back to the spine. The neck and the
lower back have been designed to mirror each other. Both have similar degree of the spinal curves
and align on top of each other. If this balance is disrupted, the spine’s ability to effectively transfer
weight across the lower back and neck is compromised. This often happens due to poor sitting
posture that throws the lumbar curve out of balance.
