Reduced Flexibility
Sitting for long periods can cause muscles and ligaments to become tight and less flexible which can lead to stiffness and a limited range of motion in the spine, contributing to discomfort and pain.

The good news is that you can offset these conditions just by adding a pair of Urban or Activator poles to your walk.  Your spine will thank you for:

Improved Posture
The poles encourage an upright posture, reduce slouching, and engage core muscles, all of which can help alleviate neck and back pain caused by poor alignment or posture.

Enhanced Mobility
The poles also provide a full-body workout that increases overall strength and flexibility while reducing spine and joint stiffness.  Less pain equals greater mobility!

Reduced Impact on Joints
Walking with poles distributes body weight more evenly and reduces impact on lower joints such as knees and hips. This is especially beneficial for those living with arthritis or xchronic pain.

Increased Stability and Balance
The poles provide an added measure of stability, regardless of preference: Urban or Activator poles. In older adults or those with balance or stability issues, they act as a support system by reducing the risk of falls and boosting confidence while walking. After all, 4 points of contact are always better than 2!

To Sum it UP 
Adding a pair of Urban or Activator poles to your daily walk will have you standing tall, feeling re-energized and steadier on your feet.  Your spine will be ever grateful for the low-impact full body workout, as well as the added benefits of improved posture and mobility. Urban and Activator poles are ready to go whenever you are and can be used no matter your stage in life so be sure to make them an integral part of your spinal health journey.  A more active, pain-free life now and in the future is as easy as putting one step in front of the other.
