5 Resolutions for Better Spinal Health in 2025

As we step into 2025, it’s the perfect time to focus on your spinal health. At Tagliarini Chiropractic, we believe that a healthy spine is the foundation for overall wellness. Here are five resolutions that can transform your spinal health this year:

1. Move More, Sit Less In our digital age, we’re sitting more than ever. Make a conscious effort to stand up and move every hour. Set reminders if needed, and consider a standing desk, a sit/stand deck or active sitting chair. Like Dr. John says, “sitting is the new smoking” so try to avoid prolonged sitting. But when you do have to sit, have a quality chair. We love the G6 Task Chair from Wyatt Seating as a supportive affordable choice. Reach out to local vendor Bill at Strategic Spaces for more info on this chair at (860)930-3322.
2. Perfect Your Posture Good posture isn’t just about looking confident – it’s crucial for spinal health. Be mindful of your posture throughout the day, whether you’re working, driving, or relaxing at home. Not happy with your posture? Ask one of our doctors what you can do differently to improve and maximize it.
3. Strengthen Your Core A strong core supports your spine. Incorporate exercises like planks, bridges, bird dogs and dead bugs into your routine. Start with as little 10 seconds and add seconds daily gradually. The exercise disc routine we do in the office helps as well. Even 10 minutes a day of core work can make a difference!
4. Prioritize Sleep Your spine recovers during sleep. Invest in a supportive mattress and pillow, and aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night. Check out our sleep resources page.
5. Regular Chiropractic Check-ups Prevention is key to spinal health. Regular adjustments can help maintain proper alignment, prevent issues before they start, and keep your body functioning optimally.

Making Your Resolutions Stick
