Digital dementia: The tech epidemic of the new millennia.

How overuse of technology results in brain dysfunction and cognitive decline

Digital Dementia is a modern day epidemic resulting in a sensory mismatch in the brain, resulting from overutilization of technology and excessive slouched sitting posture.   Adolescents with Digital Dementia demonstrate a decline in cognition and short term memory loss, symptoms usually associated with dementia seen much later in life.

Your children may be at risk for developing Digital Dementia if they spend hours each day seated in from of screens with slouched posture and little to no movement.  Posture is declining at the rate of technology and modern day children are suffering from it as their brains change with technology.  Learn how to prevent and overcome Digital Dementia and receive important Posture Tech Tips.

Get in Gear

When you turn your neck or twist your back does your spine snap, grind and ratchet like a bicycle chain stuck in mid gear? That grating noise could mean something’s out of alignment.

Your spine is made up of movable bones called vertebrae, each joined perfectly together like the links of a bicycle chain. If one or more of these joints become stuck and misaligned it can slowly wreak havoc on the mechanical integrity of your entire spine. The result – pain, stiffness and premature arthritic changes. Don’t neglect the noises. Abnormal grinding (crepitus) of spinal joints may indicate early degenerative joint disease.

Remember, unlike a bicycle chain, you can’t replace spinal ‘links’ when they get damaged. Get your spine tuned up by a Chiropractor who is thoroughly trained in restoring the normal mechanics of your spine, and protect yourself from premature wear and tear.
