Do you spend most of your day staring down onto your smartphone? And when you’re not on your phone, do you do that with your tablet and laptop as well? You most likely have the ‘text neck’ and that’s not a good thing.

Keep your posture in mind at all times! Remember: Shoulders back, chin up and eyes downward. Watch the video below to learn more:
