How Our Oxford Chiropractic Clinic Can Help

What's the hump on the back of my neck?

Have you noticed a hump forming at the base of your neck? Don’t worry; you’re not alone! This mysterious hump, known as Dowager’s Hump, is a common concern for many individuals.

In this blog, we’ll delve into what causes this hump to appear, the impact it can have on your health, and how Advanced Biostructural Correction (ABC) offers an effective solution to tackle this issue. Get ready to discover the secrets behind Dowager’s Hump and how you can regain a healthier, more aligned posture.

Did you know that Dowager’s Hump is named after a historical figure? It’s called “Dowager’s Hump” because it was often associated with elderly women who were widows and held a title of nobility known as a “dowager.”

Dowager’s Hump, medically known as kyphosis, is an excessive curvature of the upper spine that leads to a visible hump at the back of the neck. It typically develops due to poor posture, spinal misalignments, or age-related changes in the spine. Prolonged forward head posture, sedentary lifestyle, and weak back muscles can contribute to the formation of this hump.

The Impact of Dowager’s Hump

Dowager’s Hump not only affects your appearance but can also have serious consequences on your overall health. The hump’s weight can put excessive pressure on the neck, shoulders, and upper back, leading to chronic pain, discomfort, and restricted mobility. Additionally, this condition can lead to reduced lung capacity, digestion issues, and even affect your self-confidence.
